  • Dual 4K or 1080P displays via two HDMI ports

  • Built-in SD and TF card readers simplify media transfer

Multiport USB-C docking station

The Adesso AUH4050 adds two HDMI outputs, a VGA port, gigabit Ethernet, SD and TF card readers, two USB 3.2-A sockets and a 3.5 mm audio jack through a single USB-C connection. It delivers up to 65 W of power to the host laptop while driving one 4K display at 60 Hz or two 1080p screens at 30 Hz. A compact aluminium case helps dissipate heat during extended use.

For USB-C laptops needing legacy video

This dock suits users who must connect HDMI and VGA monitors, a wired network link and USB peripherals simultaneously. It also provides 65 W charging so the laptop power brick can stay in the bag. Buyers whose laptops lack a USB-C port with video and power-delivery support, or who require more than two external displays, will not be able to use this adapter.

Two HDMI ports with 4K single or dual 1080p output

The defining specification is the dual HDMI arrangement: one screen at 4K 60 Hz, or two screens at 1080p 30 Hz. VGA is limited to 1080p. If your workflow demands higher refresh rates on multiple 4K panels, this unit cannot meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

Does my laptop need a USB-C port that supports video and 65 W power delivery for the AUH4050 to work?

Yes, the host must provide a USB-C connection with DisplayPort Alt Mode and PD 3.0 up to 65 W so the dock can drive both displays and charge the laptop.

Can I still use a 1080p monitor over VGA while running two 4K screens on the HDMI ports?

The dock supports either a single 4K 60 Hz HDMI output or dual 1080p 30 Hz HDMI outputs plus a 1080p VGA output, so all three can run together at 1080p.

How do I confirm the AUH4050 is delivering 65 W to my laptop after I connect it?

Check the laptop’s battery or power settings; it should report a 65 W input from the USB-C PD 3.0 connection when the dock’s own power adapter is attached.
