* Video resolutions and refresh rates that can be achieved are dependent on the capabilities of the connected computer and monitor. Check the FAQ’s below for guidance in the resolutions you can expect to achieve with your equipment.
General
For users this means faster data transfers (two or more times faster than previous USB standards) and the ability to support higher video output resolutions.
The USB 4 standard is very new compared with the existing USB 3 standard which was first introduced in 2008. This means that most computers currently support USB 3, but you can expect to see computers starting to gain USB 4 support from 2022 onwards.
The good news is that USB 4 is backwards compatible with computers that support USB 3 and Thunderbolt. Buying a USB 4 accessory now means you are buying a future proofed product that will also work with new computers that are released in the next few years.
Note that USB 4 accessories are limited to USB 3 capabilities when used with current or older computers that only support USB 3. The effect of this means that when this device is used with USB 3 computers USB port speeds and video resolutions achievable may not reach the maximum speeds and resolutions that the device is capable of. Guidance on achievable resolutions can be found below.

The device supports USB PD 2.0 and 3.0 power adapters up to 100W. Note that the device can reserve up to 15W from power adapters to power itself and peripheral devices connected to the ports on the hub so it is best to use a USB PD power adapter that is at least 15W larger than the power adapter that was supplied with the computer.
The maximum Wattage that this hub can provide to charge a computer is 85W (100W power adapter minus 15W reserved by the hub). This is sufficient for most laptops, but a few larger high performance laptops may slow charge or not be able to charge through this device.
If the computer shows a message indicating that it is not receiving enough power from the device, increase the size (Wattage) of the connected power adapter or connect the power adapter directly to the computer.
