Target devices and power

This Acer D501 USB-C docking station delivers up to 60 W of power to the host notebook over a single USB 3.1 Gen 2 connection. It is certified for Works With Chromebook and designed for laptops that charge through a USB-C port within that power envelope.

Ports and display limits

The dock provides three video outputs — one HDMI 2.0, one DisplayPort 1.4 and a shared HDMI 2.0/DP 1.4 port — but only one of the shared pair can be active at a time, so the maximum simultaneous displays is three. Seven USB-A ports (two Gen 2 and five Gen 1) plus one USB-C data port and gigabit Ethernet handle peripheral connectivity.

Deciding specification

The 60 W power delivery ceiling is the single figure that determines whether this dock can charge your specific notebook; if the laptop requires more than 60 W over USB-C, it will not charge from this unit.

Questions about this item

Which display output should I use for a single 4K monitor at 60 Hz — the HDMI 2.0 port or the DP 1.4 port?

Both support 4K at 60 Hz; use either one, but only one of the combined HDMI/DP port can be active at a time.

What does the 60 W power delivery mean for my laptop in daily use?

It can charge most ultrabooks and thin-and-lights while you work, but larger gaming or mobile-workstation laptops may need their own charger.

What does the USB 3.1 Gen 2 host interface cap data speeds at in practice?

The link tops out at 10 Gbps, so connected SSDs or hubs will not exceed that throughput.
