Questions about this item

Will the 4K HDMI port on this PB-8945 hub drive my older 1080p monitor at 60 Hz?

Yes, the HDMI output supports 1080p at 60 Hz and scales down from its maximum 4K 30 Hz capability automatically.

How can I verify the Thunderbolt 3 port is delivering 40 Gb/s data speed after I connect it?

Open System Report on macOS, select Thunderbolt, and confirm the link speed reads 40 Gb/s for the connected device.

Does the package include a Thunderbolt 3 cable for the host connection, or do I need to buy one separately?

The hub has two fixed Type-C male plugs that connect directly to the MacBook; no separate cable is required or supplied.
