USB Docking Stations
1

I am looking to purchase a docking station for my laptop but came across many posts saying that the USB-C does not support display, only power. Please recommend a docking station for my lenovo laptop that must support TWO of my external monitors. See specs of laptop and monitors below:

Laptop:

|Brand|Lenovo|
|Series|IdeaPad Flex 5 14IIL05|
|Model|81X1000AUS|

Monitor:
LG 32" Class QHD IPS Monitor

I need to order a docking station asap. Thank you!!

Thanks for reaching out to Plugable support! I’d be happy to help with that.

You are correct that this laptop can support USB-C Power Delivery for laptop charging but not Alt-Mode for native display extending.

For this laptop we would recommend one of our DisplayLink powered docking stations that only require USB 3.0 support and the DisplayLink drivers.

Here is a link to all of the options that we would recommend for you:

There are a few important details to keep in mind:

  • Our USB 3.0 docking stations relies on a USB graphics technology known as DisplayLink.
  • DisplayLink graphics is great for general office or productivity use, but we do not recommend DisplayLink for any graphics intensive tasks such as gaming.
  • Does not support HDCP (copy-protected) content playback from Blu-ray/Netflix/Prime/iTunes/Hulu/etc.

If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know.

Thanks!
