which is the ideal hub for my Lenovo Flex 5 -1570 laptop
i am aware that Lenovo flex5 does not have thunderbold USB-c and hence does not support charging via that port (Only Data).
with that said, which is the best plugable hub that will support 2 external monitors via HDMI ports?
If I use a USB-C to USB 3.0 adaptor can I leverage my flex5’s USB-C port to drive 2 external monitors? I prefer the hub to have 2 HDMI ports rather than using a DVI port. Can you please provide some recommendations?
We don’t recommend our USB-C docking stations to be used in combination with USB-C to USB-A adapters.
You may want to consider our USB 3.0 docks, such as our UD-3900 or UD-3900H. These can drive up to two 1080p displays via one HDMI port and one DVI port (or VGA with the included DVI-to-VGA adapter). If you’re limited to the use of the HDMI inputs on the monitors, you’ll need a DVI-to-HDMI cable in this case.
Additionally, they provide gigabit Ethernet connectivity as well as a total of six USB ports (two USB 3.0 ports, four USB 2.0 ports). The main difference between the two is their form factor (horizontal versus vertical) as well as the port placements. Please see their product pages for more information and feel free to choose the one you might prefer:
We do offer a USB 3.0 docking station with two HDMI output ports, but this is a 4K docking station, so we would only really recommend this if you have 4K monitors.
