How to use

Plug the docking station’s Type-C cable into a compatible USB-C port on your laptop or device that supports USB 3.2 Gen 1. Connect an external display to the HDMI port and attach USB peripherals to the available Type-A ports. Insert an SD or MicroSD card into the corresponding reader slot for file access. The device is bus-powered and does not require a separate power supply; operating system prompts or driver installation may appear depending on the host system and its configuration.

Recommendations

Use a host port that supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 for optimal data throughput on the USB 3.2 Type-A port and ensure the host’s USB-C port provides display output if HDMI output is required. For reliable card access, use SD and MicroSD cards with capacities up to 128 GB and avoid forcing cards into slots. Keep the short cable free of sharp bends to maintain connection integrity.
