Dual Video Flexibility

This USB 3.0 docking station connects a laptop to two external displays using HDMI plus DVI or HDMI plus VGA with the included adapter. It supports dual-monitor resolutions up to 2048 x 1152 at 60 Hz over HDMI and DVI, or 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz over VGA. The DisplayLink certified chipset enables dual-video output on both Windows and Mac OS.

Port Expansion for Peripherals

Six USB 3.0 Type-A ports let you attach keyboards, mice, drives and other accessories through a single host cable. Two of those ports provide always-on fast charging for phones or tablets even when the laptop is asleep. Gigabit Ethernet and a 3.5 mm audio jack complete the workstation conversion. Buyers who require USB-C video input, laptop charging via the dock or 4K output should consider a different product.

DisplayLink Certified Chipset

The built-in DisplayLink certified chipset is the component that drives dual independent displays over a standard USB 3.0 connection without native video outputs. It supports Windows 7 through 10 and Mac OS 10.10 through 10.13.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the DK30ADD is driving both monitors at the correct 2048 x 1152 resolution after setup?

Open the display settings on your Windows or Mac laptop and confirm each external screen shows 2048 x 1152 at 60 Hz; the DisplayLink manager will also list both active outputs.

Which cables and adapters are included with the DK30ADD and what must I provide myself?

The box contains the dock, a DVI-to-VGA adapter, a USB 3.0 host cable and a power adapter; you supply the HDMI, DVI or VGA monitor cables.

Should I choose the HDMI-plus-DVI or HDMI-plus-VGA dual-monitor mode for the DK30ADD?

Use HDMI-plus-DVI when both monitors support digital input for 2048 x 1152; switch to HDMI-plus-VGA with the included adapter if one display is a legacy VGA panel limited to 1920 x 1200.
