4K Support Included

It's worth highlighting that the USB-C Cube can deliver video of up to 4K, at a rate of 30Hz, to the attached display. While most users won't need this, if you're regularly working in 4K video or you're looking for a device to hook up a high-end gaming laptop to a TV, the Plugable device has the specs you need.

Video and other data is streamed from a compatible device to the USB-C Cube via the USB-C cable. This version of USB has far greater device support than earlier editions. It has the bandwidth to send video data to other devices, as well as act as a host for connected hardware. This means that Android phones and tablets can be hooked up to external disk drives and input devices.

Although this was possible before the arrival of USB-C, it's far faster and more reliable now.

Using the Plugable USB-C Cube Docking Station With a Laptop

As noted, the USB-C Cube can be used with a laptop computer, equipped with a USB-C port. As such, you'll need to confirm that your device has the correct port. If you use a 2018 MacBook Pro, 12" Retina MacBook, Microsoft Surface Book 2, HP Spectre x360 13", or Dell XPS, the chances are that your laptop is suitably equipped.
