Overview

The StarTech USBA2DPGB is a compact USB 3.0 mini dock designed to expand connectivity for laptops and workstations. It allows you to connect two DisplayPort monitors, a Gigabit Ethernet network, and leverages USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) for high-speed data transfer. This dock is ideal for users requiring multi-monitor setups and wired network access without sacrificing desk space or relying on less stable wireless connections. The USBA2DPGB model supports high resolutions and refresh rates, making it suitable for demanding visual tasks.

This dock is compatible with laptops and desktops featuring a USB 3.0 or higher port (USB 3.2 Gen 1, USB 3.2 Gen 2, USB4, Thunderbolt 3/4). It supports Windows 11, 10, 8.1, and macOS 10.14+. The DisplayLink DL-6950 chipset ensures broad compatibility across various operating systems and applications, including those used in surveillance monitoring where multiple video feeds are displayed simultaneously. It functions as an external graphics adapter, allowing for extended desktop or mirrored displays.

Installation Notes

The dock is powered via USB, eliminating the need for an external power adapter. It connects to the host computer using the integrated 11.8-inch (300 mm) USB cable. For optimal performance, ensure your host system has USB 3.0 or higher ports and that the DisplayLink drivers are installed.
