SMUGDESK 9-in-1 USB-C Docking Station for MacBook Pro 2017 2018 Air 2018

SKU CH-TQ6X-M827W

A 9-in-1 USB-C hub adds 4K HDMI, Gigabit Ethernet, three USB 3.0 ports, one USB 2.0 port, dual card readers and PD pass-through charging for MacBook Pro 2017 2018 and Air 2018

  • 4K HDMI extends your display to external monitors
  • Gigabit Ethernet gives stable wired networking for large transfers
  • Three USB 3.0 plus one USB 2.0 connect peripherals at different speeds
  • SD and TF dual card reader imports photos and videos quickly
  • PD pass-through charging powers your MacBook while the hub runs

MacBook Pro 2017/2018 and Air 2018 expansion

This 9-in-1 USB-C docking station is built specifically for MacBook Pro 2017, MacBook Pro 2018 and MacBook Air 2018 models. It adds video output, wired networking, multiple USB ports, dual card slots and pass-through charging through a single USB-C connection. The hub turns the limited port selection of those thin Apple laptops into a full workstation-grade I/O setup for creative and office workflows.

Suits owners of listed MacBooks needing legacy ports

The dock targets users of the 2017 and 2018 MacBook Pro and 2018 MacBook Air who require HDMI, Gigabit Ethernet, USB-A and card-reader access without carrying multiple adapters. Buyers with other laptops that lack the exact USB-C pinout or physical spacing of those models will find the connector incompatible. Users who need more than one external display or faster than USB 3.0 data rates should look elsewhere.

Single USB-C connector fits 2017-2018 MacBook port

The decisive specification is the physical USB-C plug layout engineered to match the port spacing on MacBook Pro 2017, MacBook Pro 2018 and MacBook Air 2018. If your laptop is not one of those three models, the connector will not align or seat correctly, and the hub cannot function.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the 4K HDMI output is working after I connect an external monitor?

Connect the HDMI cable to the dock and your display, then open System Settings > Displays on the MacBook; the external screen should appear and you can select mirror or extend mode to verify the 4K signal.

What cables or accessories come in the box and what must I provide separately?

The package includes the 9-in-1 docking station only; you will need to supply an HDMI cable, Ethernet cable, your MacBook USB-C power adapter for PD pass-through charging, and any USB peripherals or memory cards you wish to use.

Is this hub compatible with my MacBook Pro 2017 and will it also work with a 2018 Air?

Yes, the dock is designed for MacBook Pro 2017 and 2018 models as well as MacBook Air 2018, providing 4K HDMI, Gigabit Ethernet, three USB 3.0 ports, one USB 2.0 port, SD and TF card slots, and PD charging on all three laptops.
