Overview
The USB 3.0 4K Laptop Docking Station lets you create a high-resolution, 4K Ultra HD workstation in your office or at home. Now, you can discover leading-edge display technology, desktop convenience, and fast device charging by adding 4K DisplayPort, DP & HDMI dual video, USB quick-charge port, and several other vital connections to your laptop.
It's the perfect accessory for laptops and Ultrabooks, as well as your Microsoft Surface™ Pro 4, Surface Pro 3, Surface 3, Surface Pro 2 or Surface Book.
Leading-Edge Display Technology
Deliver brilliant text and image quality, and an exciting visual experience with one of the first docking stations to support 4Kx2K (3840x2160p - 30Hz) resolution. Now, you can take advantage of the latest Ultra High Definition (UHD) displays, or prepare your workspace for the future popularity of 4K touch screens, displays, and video sources, which offer 4x as many pixels as full high-definition (1920x1080p).
Maximum Supported Resolutions*
Video Output Configuration | Max DisplayPort Resolution | Max HDMI Resolution |
---|---|---|
DisplayPort |
3840 x 2160p (4K) | N/A |
HDMI (Single Display) |
N/A | 2560 x 1440p |
DisplayPort and HDMI (Two Displays) |
2048 x 1152p | 2048 x 1152p |
*Lower resolutions are also supported. For example, if the max is 3840 x 2160p (4K), it also supports 2560 x 1600p and 2560 x 1440p.
Native 4K videos, applications, and graphics look crystal-clear and sharp with vivid realism, documents are crisp, and colors appear rich and more accurate. Easily add 4K capabilities to your Windows® or Mac laptop, when connected to a single display via the dock DP video output and a DisplayPort-enabled 4K display. For extra display flexibility, pair the docking station with the DisplayPort to HDMI 4K Video Converter (SKU: DP2HD4KS - sold separately) to add support for a 4K HDMI-based display.
Desktop Convenience
Work faster, and more efficiently! With dual monitor support (4K output not supported in dual monitor configuration), you can design an immersive, multi-display desktop proven to streamline work and save time. Be up-and-running in seconds with no headaches, simply connect DP and HDMI-enabled displays to the integrated monitor outputs and you’re done.
A single USB 3.0 connection means docking your laptop (e.g. Lenovo® ThinkPad®, HP® / Dell® Ultrabook™, MacBook Pro®, MacBook Air®) is hassle-free, too. Devices remain constantly connected, letting you overcome laptop port limitations while also eliminating the aggravation of continually reconnecting peripherals. You can even tuck the dock neatly under your laptop, to create a full-sized workstation that’s organized and clutter-free. The dock is perfect for hoteling in shared workspaces, or for hot desks.
Device Charging
Fast-charge your tablet or smartphone, with or without a laptop connected to the dock! USB charging is fast, convenient, and easily accessible, through a side-facing, always-on USB fast-charge port that combines data throughput with support for USB Battery Charging Specification 1.2. You can create a dynamic shared workspace and get work done efficiently, while simultaneously adding charge and sync flexibility to a mobile device.
Now, you can enjoy true multitasking capability by rapid-charging your mobile device, fused with the performance and convenience of a full-sized 4K workstation. Plus, an integrated 4-port USB 3.0 hub-controller with support for UASP-enhanced performance offers faster data transfer rates, resulting in less waiting, and more productivity from your attached peripherals such as USB 3.0 external hard drives.
Universally Supported
Unlike some proprietary docking stations designed only to work with specific laptop models, this universal laptop dock works with multiple brands. All you need is your laptop’s USB 3.0 port and you can be up and running quickly. With universal support, you can use this dock with different laptops now, or in the future.
The USB3DOCKHDPC is backed by a StarTech.com 3-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.

Frequently Asked Questions
Before You Buy
Whether this device works with the Chrome OS™ operating system or not depends on the version of the Chrome OS operating system that you’re running and the model of the Chromebook™ notebook computer that you’re using.
Existing DisplayLink® enabled USB 3.0 products natively support Chrome OS build version R55 and later, but not all Chromebook notebook computers running build version R55 and later natively support DisplayLink. Support for DisplayLink is being rolled out to Chromebook notebook computers in a series of releases. To see the build version of the Chrome OS operating system that supports DisplayLink and corresponds to the model of the Chromebook notebook that you’re using, view the following knowledge base article on the DisplayLink website: http://support.displaylink.com/knowledgebase/articles/891030.

You can use an external display or projector with a Mac notebook while its built-in display is closed. This is known as "clamshell" or "closed display" mode.
Clamshell mode requires that the following devices are connected to the Mac notebook:
- A power adapter.
- An external keyboard, mouse, or trackpad.
- An external display.
macOS does not see DisplayLink displays as external displays, therefore this criteria is not met and clamshell mode cannot be enabled when a DisplayLink adapter is the only external display connected to the computer.
