PlugableUniversal Laptop Docking Station, 4K Dual Monitor, DisplayPort or HDMI, Windows Mac or ChromeOS Laptops, USB-C or USB 3.0, Adds 2 Displays, Ethernet, Audio, 6 USB Ports

Very easy to setup and works perfectly. Make sure you have admin access to install the drivers on your system. If you have a corporate computer, contact your IT department before purchasing so they can install the drivers.

I've been using this docking station since April 2022. I bought it to be compatible with my newer M1 work MacBook Air *and* my older personal one (I just use a USB adapter to move the input cable from one machine to the next as needed, no fancy KVM switching for me), and it's worked like a charm. I run two external monitors through HDMI connections, run audio through it (old Bose speakers+sub), and use the USB ports on the device for a corded keyboard, webcam, and phone charger. I keep it bundled up in a cable net under my desk for cord management and stand my laptops up behind my monitors to clear desk space. I never need to touch the thing, so it's nice to be able to tuck it out of the way.I've never had any problem with it until a recent cable management quest. I simply unplugged it, and the monitors wouldn't work anymore through it, though the USB ports still worked and the monitors worked on their own. It was one of those cursed tech mysteries that happens to the best of us, a major bummer, and in a normal scenario might result in me docking a few stars for planned obsolescence... BUT! Plugable's tech support team was so responsive in helping me troubleshoot and quickly determined this wasn't expected behavior and proactively invoked the warranty (which I didn't even know I had, tbh) to send me a brand new pre-tested one. I plugged it in, and everything works great again.So, maybe the product isn't perfect, but the customer support was next level and I'm back in action, and those guys deserved a shoutout. Very few products are perfect, but this brand is doing "making it right" right. I'd recommend it for anyone with big desk productivity dreams on a smaller desk and smaller budget.

In the year 2024, I can't believe that Mac OS doesn't have native support for more than one connected display monitor. This solves that.In researching options, the Plugable DisplayLink dock seemed to be the best solution in my price point, though I'd read negative reviews warning about it not working, video lagging. or screen freezing. I'm running two 27" simple Dell monitors, 75Hz refresh rate and it's working great. I've also got my mouse, Anker PowerConf, and a bunch of other peripherals connected, and all work great together.One suggestion - the Quick Start instructions in the box reference downloading and installing the right DisplayLink driver and giving it permissions for screen sharing. They neglect to mention something super-important. The DisplayLink Manager is an application that you have to open/run for the magic to happen. It tricks the Macbook into recognizing the second monitor. I'd done all the other steps, missed that and thought I'd bought a lemon. However, once I hit the troubleshooting FAQs and took that simple step, everything worked perfectly.

I'm on my 3rd USB 2.0/3.0 docking station, the 2nd I've purchased from Plugable. Previously I've also used the Targus ACP70USZ, also purchased on Amazon. As such I have been through the ringer on every conceivable issue with these multi-display USB docks and was actually quite surprised when this one worked, immediately, the first time I installed the drivers and plugged it in. Rather than one HDMI and one DVI port, this one has two sets of HDMI/Display Port connections, the HDMI and DisplayPort for each being redundant to each other (you can either use one or the other, not both). I happen to be using HDMI and it works very well so far.Past issues with similar docks have included poor picture quality, strange behavior on some programs (ex. Microsoft Word freezing and doing other weird stuff but only on one of the displays connected to the dock), Intel display adapter driver issues (and the difficulty in rolling back to the appropriate driver), and no picture on one or both monitors connected to the dock. None of those have been an issue with this one yet - and I will update if they occur.My complaints with the ud-6950H:1. Like many manufacturers, Plugable (or the people they purchase the standardized cables from) insist on having a huge wall wart/dongle plug for the power adapter. This means that you can either kiss one of your precious electrical outlets goodbye because this thing effectively takes up two spaces, or you have to buy a power strip that will accommodate the form factor of this plug/wart. Either way, this is friggin' 2018 people. One would think that this long-standing issue would have been engineered out of the park by now, but no! Rather than a laptop style power supply with a standard AC plug and small AC/DC converter brick (which Targus does), Plugable puts the AC/DC converter in the plug itself, wasting a lot of space at the outlet or power strip. No excuse for that.2. The DC cable itself (from the big plug wart to the dock) is too short for anything but a very compact layout. What would it have hurt to make the damn thing 1.5 feet longer? Adding another ferrite choke? Again, this is simply unacceptable.3. The shape/form factor is not ideal. Targus makes theirs so that it also functions as a mini laptop stand, which is very convenient. This thing needs its own space on your desk. Again, one of those little common sense items that Plugable seems unable to process.None of the three issues above will cause me to return this item, however if I find a dock from Plugable or another manufacturer which has a standard AC/DC brick and power cord/plug, a longer cord and a stand-like form factor, I will sell this one and buy that one.4/5 Stars here simply because it works very well and was super easy to install/configure.
