    Hi OP, in the product descriptions you have explicitly stated that they are not compatible with Chromecast with Google TV. Except the last one. Is that one compatible?

    If only that first one had gigabit Ethernet. So close to being the ideal hub for me.

    Will the triple display hub do 2 external monitors @ 2K/60Hz on a surface pro 7+? I just had to return this because it wouldn't.

      I've never been able to get it to display more than 2x 1080p.

      I have a Dell 7550 with RTX 3000.

  • donbot on 30/09/2021 - 08:51

    Gave the 2nd one a shot. At $39, willing to take a risk that its not suitable for how I want to use it.

    Thanks OP!

    It's brave for the seller to claim 4K@60Hz + all those ports for so many devices (if I am being nice). It's false advertising (if I am being strict).
    Assuming it uses DP 1.4 alt mode based chipset, it relies on consumers having latest devices supporting DP 1.4 alt mode. Otherwise, at best, you can only get 4K/30Hz (as that's just the device limitation). A lot of Android phones simply cannot do DP 1.4 (so they are DP 1.2 only). They can still do 4K/60Hz, just not with these type of multi port dongles.

    As usual, reliability is a concern with these low cost dongles with many ports.

      That's fair. I actually thought the same thing but I bought one about two weeks back assuming I would just use it as a USB-C to USB-A hub and it actually didn't work out of the box probably due to something going on with my work mac.

      Then I tried it a few days later and it worked perfectly so now I'm running 4K@60Hz on my dell monitor (HDMI) and I have a webcam (1080p), usb soundcard (Creative X3) and some usb keyboard/mouse receivers all running from the single usb-c port.

      I've also got a KVM switch in the way as well and it seems to be handling that just fine.

      For the record I bought this one:

    I got one of these, but the HDMI port is not working on my laptop with my DELL monitor. It's a Ryzen laptop (so no Thunderbolt) maybe it's because of that. But be aware of that if you need this to work

    • netsurfer on 30/09/2021 - 09:28

      Great feedback so there could be some compatibility issue with this, especially on the display side.

      It's not thunderbolt 3 chipset based. It's USB-C/alt-mode. It is likely to be DP 1.4 alt mode chipset based. There are pros and cons with that type of chipsets. One of cons is compatibility issue with older devices or devices which are able to only support DP 1.2 alt mode. I too have a device (Macbook Pro 13 inch 2017) which doesn't work well with DP 1.4 alt mode chipset based dongles.

      Part of the problem is USB-C, which has been and still is an evolving standard. Just because Thunderbolt 3 ports support USB-C/alt-mode, it doesn't mean those ports perform DP 1.4 under USB-C/alt-mode. It's a complicated mess.

    • Goof on 30/09/2021 - 14:42

      Is it a Dell laptop? I saw this under "tips" on one of the pages…

      "3. To get this USB C Hub to fully working on Dell laptop, you had to disable Thunderbolt security in the BIOS after which there were no issues."

      • deedend on 30/09/2021 - 14:44

        It's not Thunderbolt, and, the laptop is an ASUS Vivobook

  • Goof on 30/09/2021 - 09:32

    These all say things like:

    "The USB-C input charging port can't be used for data transmission."
"1 x PD Port: Instant charging power up to 100W; (Only for charging, not support Data transfer.)"

    Is there a dongle like these that does support data on the USB C power in port?

    Reason: I have a Dell XPS 13 that's connected to a Dell monitor by USB C only. This charges the laptop, runs the display and gives me USB ports on the monitor itself. My issue is if I plug an Ethernet dongle in to the monitor it is slow, well short of gigabit. I like the one cable solution, so looking for something that will go inline with the USB C cable and give me full gigabit Ethernet.

    • netsurfer on 30/09/2021 - 09:39

      The issue you have with the Dell monitor isn't going to be solved with a dongle. I am assuming you are running the Dell monitor in favour data mode (DP 1.4) instead of favour resolution mode (DP 1.2).

      The fundamental issue is that under USB-C/alt-mode setup, even in DP 1.4 mode and only 2 lanes being used for video, leaving 2 lanes for data, you are still essentially left with 2 lanes of data. Given data ports are full duplex, you are left with 1 lane upstream and 1 lane downstream. Therefore, you are limited to USB 3.0. If it is running in DP 1.2 mode (due to the laptop not able to support DP 1.4 in alt-mode), the situation is even worse, as you will be running favour resolution mode, taking up all lanes for display (so you are left with USB 2.0). One workaround for that is don't run 4K/60Hz, run at 4K/30Hz or something lower.

      Assuming your Dell monitor is working correctly, switching it to a dongle isn't going to fix the bandwidth issue. A dongle doesn't bring you extra bandwidth and unless you believe your Dell monitor is not doing the right thing, then you won't get more bandwidth out of that port (unless your USB-A ethernet dongle is rubbish). Perhaps let us know the Dell monitor model so we can tell whether it supports both DP 1.4 and DP 1.2 in alt-mode.

      • Goof on 30/09/2021 - 10:01

        That is very good information, thank you.

        The monitor is a Dell U3818DW. The laptop is a Dell XPS 13 7390 2-in-1.

        I had assumed the monitor effectively has a USB hub in it, that this is not the latest spec and so it's the bottle neck. I hadn't considered data lanes in USB C link, etc. I think I need to read up a bit more.

        The Ethernet dongle works at full speed when connected directly to the laptop, so I don't think it's that. I have 2x USB C ports on the laptop, so maybe I need to accept a 2 cable solution (something I do now when I want full speed gigabit Ethernet.)

        • netsurfer on 30/09/2021 - 10:26
          +2

          That monitor:

          1 x USB Type-C (Alternate mode with DP1.2, Power Delivery, and USB2.0)

          It makes sense, back in 2018, that's expected design. Considered even Apple Macbook Pro 13 inch 2018 was only DP 1.2 (in alt-mode, not Thunderbolt 3 mode).

          So, with that monitor, you need to use another port (i.e. USB-A port) for the data, rather than through just USB-C if you want USB 3.0 on that monitor. Now, Dell XPS 13 7390 2-in-1, there isn't much information I can find. However, from that CPU/GPU, assuming Dell wired it correctly, it would support USB-C/Alt-mode DP 1.4. I am not certain about this. This is one area which is really frustrating about USB-C/Alt-mode. Laptop makers don't make it clear.

          So, in your case, a dongle capable of supporting USB-C/alt-mode DP 1.4 could address your bandwidth issue (since currently the monitor is only doing DP 1.2 (and using all data lanes for the display). Problem is, I am assuming based on Intel Ark page, the CPU (actually the GPU) appears to be DP 1.4 capable. Sorry, I wish I can give you a definitive answer, but there is no concrete information to indicate it supports DP 1.4 via USB-C.

          • Goof on 30/09/2021 - 11:49

            @netsurfer: Thanks again for the info.

            So I was on the right track, but now I have a theory and I know what spec to look for in a dongle.

            TLDR; To close this out, from what I can tell from within Linux about the monitor is that it has a TI 6 port USB hub in it (idVendor=0451, idProduct=82ff, bcdDevice= 1.00) and it shows up as "Class=Hub, Driver=hub/6p, 480M", so no way it's going to do gigabit. I have a hub similar to the ones above and it shows up as "Class=Hub, Driver=hub/2p, 5000M", so the laptop can do 5Gb/s over the USB C port. When I plug the monitor in to this hub via USB C it doesn't work - no data capability on the USB PD port. Which comes back to my original question

            • netsurfer on 30/09/2021 - 11:59
              +1

              @Goof: For all these hubs, the USB-C port out on that dongle is mostly for USB-PD (and maybe at best USB 2.0 data wires might be wired through). There is no chance to get USB-C alt-mode (video) on that port. The reason is the bandwidth has already been wired to / taken by the HDMI port.

              USB-C/alt-mode is different to USB-C/Thunderbolt 3, but even USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 doesn't mean you can just use dongles or hubs to keep on expanding non-stop. The display/video still need to be connected to the GPU (unless you use DisplayLink, but that's not native display).

              USB-C isn't as good as people think. Alt-mode is already a hack. I know we all want 1 port and 1 cable for everything, but all these newer, higher resolution does require more bandwidth and does eat up a lot of bandwidth. That's why even DP 1.4 based hubs are at best USB 3.0 ports (not USB 3.1/3.2 gen 2 10GBps ports). This DP 1.2 vs DP 1.4 mess may extend further as we slowly move towards 4K/120 or 8K/60Hz. Could DP 2.0 start to appear in USB 4/USB-C type setup, which is going to further complicate things.

              • Goof on 30/09/2021 - 12:12

                @netsurfer: I'm almost achieving what I want now with a 480Mb/s link out of the laptop to the monitor, so if I got a hub with a 5Gb/s link out of the laptop it should be plenty of bandwidth to keep the existing functionality (480Mb/s to the monitor) and also support a 1Gb/s Ethernet dongle (and also unused HDMI port, etc).

                But, if I'm understanding you right, the bandwidth is divided up in to a small number of data lanes, that seems to be the restriction. It does indeed sound a mess. Bandwidth is allocated to a device you might not be using, making it unavailable to other devices you might want to use. :)

                  @Goof: My understanding is that your monitor comes with a USB 3.0 Upstream Cable. Using that cable, you can have a USB 3 based hub on the monitor (but you do need to connect one of your USB 3.0/3.1 type A ports). Essentially, using USB-C purely for display and USB-A (via that upstream cable) to get the USB 3 hub.

                  Personally, if I were to get one of these USB-C dongle which supports DP 1.4 alt-mode, it will be mostly to play around with it and finding out / confirming the laptop is capable of DP 1.4 in alt-mode. While having 1 cable with a monitor which supports DP 1.4 via USB-C is the most ideal, using one additional cable isn't the end of the world. I understand gigabit ethernet is a factor. It's just I don't trust these dongles, especially the power delivery side of things. I don't really care about USB-PD part of the dongle for 2 reasons: (1) I don't trust feeding 60W+ through a $25-$40 dongle with lots of other ports and (2) these dongles use up power, so it's not a 100% passthrough of power, more like 90% (or 95% if you are lucky). Yes, I know your laptop will still charge fine. PD via these hub/dongle is yet another aspect of USB-C that people don't realise (let's face it, how many of us buy a USB-C meter to test the USB-PD? I have one such meter, it costs more than the dongle). Bandwidth is finite and so is power. The hub/dongle doesn't run on air.

        • netsurfer on 30/09/2021 - 11:51
          +1

          One more thing, if you elected to use a USB-C/alt-mode DP 1.4 dongle (and let's assume the laptop supports it), you will be using the HDMI port as the display out, not the USB-C port out.

          No USB-C/alt-mode dongle is capable of provide 100% pass through via the USB-C/PD passthrough port. It's once again due to bandwidth is finite issue from the USB-C port. Thunderbolt 3 addresses it due to that having basically 2X the bandwidth. However, does that laptop support Thunderbolt 3 and a true TB3 hub/dock is quite expensive.

          If you really want single USB-C port which has PD, USB 3.0 hub and display (without using a separate HDMI or DisplayPort cable), then getting a monitor which supports USB-C/alt-mode DP 1.4 is the way to go. However, if your laptop supports Thunderbolt 3, then it really depends on how much you are willing to spend as Thunderbolt 3 monitors are a class above (bandwidth wide) with some supporting daisy chaining. Just want to remind you that I am assuming your laptop supports USB-C/alt-mode DP 1.4. You still need to confirm it somehow.

    • netsurfer on 30/09/2021 - 10:04

      Surface Go 2: USB-C/DP-Alt mode 1.2 so getting that dongle is okay (but 4K/30Hz max obviously). Go 2 doesn't benefit from DP-Alt mode 1.4 dongle. However, if you have devices which do support DP-Alt mode 1.4, that it really becomes tricky and you will most likely run into situation where you need to get multiple dongles.

      • akatsuki on 30/09/2021 - 11:09

          I am not a fan of USB-C dongles, especially these el cheapo ones. However, we all have to get one (especially if you are a Macbook Pro user). At this price range, I prefer to treat them as consumables. There are a few things to note:

          • These hubs/dongles need power. So, if you fed in your USB-C/PD 65W power (even if it is the original), do not expect the USB-C/PD passthrough port to be able to feed 65W. It will be lower as the hub uses some power.
          • They do get hot, especially when you transfer large amount of data and/or use high resolution display.
          • Some of them do interfere with WiFi 2.4 Ghz band reception on the laptop (especially on Macbook Pros). You might actually want the USB-C port having a plastic outer shield, rather than metallic (I know metallic looks nicer, but it is not good for WiFi reception). There is a reason why Microsoft, Apple and Google put plastic outer layer on the USB-C port.

          I haven't found one that I like. Personally, I try to stick with Apple, Microsoft, Google, or Dell (don't expect Apple ones to work without issue on PCs/laptops), but I do use an el cheapo one. However, that one has WiFi interference issue so I cannot recommend.

    If so, anyone have suggestions as to a good USB-C PD charger that I can use to plug this into to get the full 60W coming through to the laptop?
