On the rear is a PSU power input, USB-C downlink from the computer, three each of DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI 2.0, a Gigabit LAN port and four USB-A 3.1 Gen2 ports. Maximum Resolution Supported: Single Monitor - 2560 x 1600 @ 60Hz and Dual Monitors - 2048 x 1152 @ 60Hz Best For: Windows OS (7 or above) laptop with a USB-C port supporting DisplayPort Alt Mode and Power Delivery Maximum Resolution Supported: Single monitor: HDMI Ultra HD 3840 x 2160 @ 30Hz or VGA Full HD 2048 x 1152 @ 60Hz
The obvious conclusion is that this isn’t practical, or at least some significant compromises are required in what you can realistically connect and how it might work. Or follow the steps from TenForums: How to Add or Remove "USB 3 Link Power Management" from Power Options in Windows. Ethernet Speed (Mbps): 10, 100, 1000 Actual Ethernet speeds may vary depending on, but not limited to, Internet bandwidth, Ethernet cables, network switches, and the hardware and firmware performance of the host computer. Dual video is only supported on Windows 10 and 8.1 devices (Mac and Chrome USB-C devices do not support dual video over MST).
10. Update the dock manufacturer firmware
Our immediate reaction to that information was to wonder why mounting six complicated cabling ports on this device was a better option than providing three DisplayPort and some inexpensive cable adapters for HDMI? If you don’t have USB-C and are using the provided USB-A to USB-C cable that Kensington kindly includes, then a maximum of two 4K displays is possible. Maximum Resolution Supported: Single 4K @ 60Hz, Dual 4K @ 60Hz, and Triple 4K at 60Hz when connected to a DP1.4 HBR3 device They also made some curious choices about the texturing of this case, where the top, bottom rear and sides have a matt appearance, but the front is high gloss.
System Requirements: USB-C host device must support Power Delivery. Power Delivery is not supported on USB-A host devices without the use of the optional 60W power splitter (K38310)
Your laptop or device must have a USB-C port. (Using an adapter on a USB 3.0 Type-A port will not work.) Your device must be running Windows 10, 8.1 or Mac OS X Yosemite (10.10) or later, or Chrome OS (R53 or above). As with other kinds of cable, USB cable quality can vary. We have also been made aware of rare quality issues with selected USB ports on a laptop series.
Another slightly odd choice is that the top is slightly recessed, creating a tray of sorts for small change, or whatever. Overall, the compromises made to achieve triple displays are too great, and most users would be better with a dual-screen option and plugging the third display directly into the laptop to reduce the bandwidth overhead. Update the computer's BIOS/UEFI with the appropriate file from your system/motherboard manufacturer.
9. Check for error codes in Device Manager
Passive cables and adapters do not have such a conversion chip built in. Instead they rely on the source to do the conversion. Unless the source has the ability to output analogue over DisplayPort or HDMI then an active adapter is required for VGA output. How well this works for any specific user is entirely dependent on many factors, such as the laptop host hardware, the resolutions of the monitors and the amount of motion on the displays. At a rough estimate, the ports on this device would require more than 76Gb/s of connection to the host computer to have all the necessary bandwidth, and it only has 10Gb/s.
