Important macOS Dual-Display Limitation

When two monitors are connected through this dock to a MacBook, macOS mirrors the same image across both external monitors because this dock relies on SST/MST behavior and macOS does not support MST in this configuration.

Windows systems can use MST for independent external displays, while macOS and iPadOS are limited to mirrored external displays through this dock.

Actual transfer speeds depend on the connected device, cable, host computer and storage performance.

2 × USB-C 10Gbps Data Ports

Two USB-C data ports are provided for high-speed peripherals such as portable SSDs, flash storage and USB-C accessories.

• Ports: 2 × USB-C
• Maximum Data Rate: 10Gbps
• Video Output: Not Supported
• High-Power Charging: Not Supported

USB-A Data Connectivity

Four dedicated USB-A data ports provide support for both high-speed and everyday peripherals.

Important Note

The maximum 160W output is shared across the dock's USB charging ports. Individual charging output varies according to the number and requirements of connected devices.

The two HDMI ports support high-resolution displays, but maximum resolution and refresh rate depend on the host laptop's DisplayPort capability and operating system. Anker's detailed UK compatibility guidance states that simultaneous dual-display output can be bandwidth-limited depending on the host DP version.

On macOS and iPadOS, two external monitors connected through this docking station display the same mirrored content. Independent dual external displays through MST are supported on compatible Windows systems.

The two downstream USB-C data ports do not support video output. Ports marked for dedicated charging do not support data transfer.

This listing treats the supplied QUTECH stock as the UK Type-G 3-pin version. Model A83B6 is also sold internationally with different regional power cords.
