This ultra-compact 1-liter PC delivers seven USB ports despite its tiny footprint, including a front USB-C running at 20Gbps for fast external SSD transfers. The rear HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4a outputs drive two displays as standard, and up to four with both optional punch-out video ports. One-cable USB-C docking needs the optional punch-out USB-C port, which takes up to 100W in and gives up to 60W out; the front USB-C is data only. Intel Wi-Fi 7 and 2.5Gb Ethernet options ensure fast networking for enterprise use.
Ultra-compact 1L desktop with 7 USB ports, HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4a, and optional punch-out expansion ports.

Notes & Compatibility
One-cable USB-C docking needs the optional punch-out USB-C port (USB 5Gbps with DisplayPort, PD-in 100W, PD-out 60W); the front USB-C is data only, with no video and no charging. Two configurable punch-out rear ports: Port 1 can be VGA, DP, HDMI, Serial, or USB-C (5Gbps with DP); Port 2 can be VGA, DP, HDMI, Serial or 2.5GbE RJ-45. Intel Q670 chipset. Realtek ALC233 audio codec. Front USB-A Gen 2 port has Always On 5V/2.1A charging. Smart Power On via rear USB-A. Lenovo’s PSREF sheet lists the HDMI port as HDMI 2.1 in TMDS mode, which tops out at 4096×2160 at 60Hz, so a Premium High Speed 18 Gbps cable is all it needs; an Ultra High Speed cable buys nothing here. The DisplayPort 1.4a port reaches 4096×2304 at 60Hz. Ordering the USB-C punch-out option calls for the 135W power adapter.
