4.1 Display Output

The docking station supports triple display output. You can connect up to three external monitors simultaneously using the HDMI, DisplayPort, and VGA ports. Note that the HDMI 2 port and the VGA port cannot work at the same time for extended display; they may mirror each other or one will take precedence. For optimal performance, use one HDMI, one DisplayPort, and one VGA, or two HDMI/DP ports.

The HDMI and DisplayPort outputs support resolutions up to 4K@60Hz, providing crisp and clear visuals for demanding applications and media consumption.
