Simple Converter to multi-functional Docking station -4

 Thunder interface is gradually known by users as the lightning 3 stage released in 2015, using Type-C interface, bandwidth up to 40 Gbps, support 4K resolution display expansion, and support two-way 100W charging, due to the technical design, the maximum data transmission bandwidth can only reach 22 Gbps;

 Thunderbolt 4 will be released in 2020. Although the bandwidth is still 40 Gbps, compared to lightning 3, the data transmission bandwidth has increased from the standard 16 Gbps to 32 Gbps. Support 24K displays or 18K display expansion, provide 4 Thunderbolt 4 interfaces.

 At the same time, after USB4 2.0, lightning interface also previews the next generation Thunderbolt standard (temporary Thunderbolt 5), providing up to 80 Gbps two-way bandwidth, can provide up to 120 Gbps bandwidth for external displays, which will enable computer devices to support 60Hz dual 8K display.

 So whether USB4 or Thunder 4, the high bandwidth provided points to the same expansion direction, which is multi-screen use. And this is also one of the main function points of the high-end expansion Dock Station in the future.

 From the above, lightning technology can be directly expanded with the help of Type-C cable. In addition, we need to use two more familiar old friends, HDMI and DP.

We have also talked carefully about the specific content of the two before, here is not much to repeat, to give you an intuitive data reference.

HDMI joggle:

HDMI 1.4, bandwidth of 10.2Gbps, support of 4K 30Hz;

HDMI 2.0, bandwidth of 18 Gbps, support of 4K 60Hz, 2K 144Hz;

HDMI 2.1, bandwidth of 48 Gbps, support of 8K 60Hz, 4K 120Hz;

DP joggle:

DP1.4, bandwidth of 32.4Gbps, support of 8K 60Hz, 4K 120Hz;

 DP2.1, bandwidth 80 Gbps, support 16K 60Hz, 8K 120Hz;

 For the expansion Dock Station on the current market, dual screen, three screen and four screen expansion has become the focus of the differentiation between products, and has gradually evolved into the demarcation point of general expansion Dock Station and high-end expansion Dock Station.

 More screen application is now more common, through the extended screen to get more screen assistance, can be more efficiently complete more content contrast scene, late image, video clips, programmer extension and game strategy, etc., and high-end Dock Station also provides more screen display and screen with display mode, fully meet all kinds of usage scenarios.

 For example, Vcan Networking 10 in 1 Dock Station, compatible with M1 / M2 Apple chip, support HDMI 2.01 (4K 60Hz), HDMI 2.11 (8K 30Hz), DP video interface 1 (4K 60Hz), plus the display screen of the laptop itself, can achieve 4 screens with the same display / different display (win / Mac system different support modes).

 Not only that, it also has DisplayLink technology fast video transmission, equipped with high-speed DisplayLink chip, adaptive compression + USB cable fast transmission, so that the computer Type-C port can transmit video signals as long as it supports USB data transmission, which needs to be used with full function C-C data line.
