Targus' universal USB-C dock fans out a single USB 3.2 Gen 2 host link into two HDMI 2.0 plus two DisplayPort 1.4a outputs — enough to drive dual 4K@60Hz monitors on most laptops via DisplayLink. Power delivery up to 100W keeps a workstation laptop charged through the dock's external PSU. Downstream connectivity covers four USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 ports, a front USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 fast-charge port for phones, Gigabit Ethernet, and a 3.5mm combo audio jack. Compatible with Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, Linux, Ubuntu and Android — the universal compatibility is its headline feature.
Targus’ universal USB-C dock with 100W PD, 2x HDMI 2.0 + 2x DP 1.4 outputs, 4x USB-A and a front fast-charge USB-C.
