Connections and ports
This USB-C docking station provides thirteen ports through a single 10 Gbps host cable. Video outputs include one HDMI 1.4 and two DisplayPort 1.2 connectors. Four USB 3.0 ports, Gigabit Ethernet, separate audio in and out, an SD card reader and a front USB-C port with 20 W power delivery complete the layout.
Host compatibility and driver requirement
The dock works with Windows 10 or later, ChromeOS 100.x or later and macOS 11+ systems that have Thunderbolt 4, Thunderbolt 3, USB4 or USB-C. DisplayLink drivers must be installed before use. Buyers whose laptops lack driver installation rights or who need native Thunderbolt video without software should consider a different solution.
Power delivery capacity
Up to 100 W (96 W certified) charges the host laptop through the USB-C link, removing the need for the original power adapter. Users with laptops that demand more than 100 W for full performance will need to keep their dedicated charger connected.

Questions about this item
How do I install the UD-ULTC4K and what step is often missed?
Connect the dock to a Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4, or USB4 host via the 10Gbps USB-C cable, then install the DisplayLink driver before attaching monitors; the driver step is the one most people skip.
What maintenance or replacement will the UD-ULTC4K need later?
Keep the DisplayLink driver updated through Windows Update or macOS Software Update; the 100W (96W certified) power delivery and 20W front USB-C port have no user-serviceable parts.
What limit appears first during sustained heavy use of the UD-ULTC4K?
The 10Gbps upstream link caps total throughput for three 4K 60Hz displays, 4× USB 3.0, Gigabit Ethernet and SD card traffic combined.
