Three 4K monitors. One USB-C port. A laptop that can only natively drive one or two external displays. You've been running a $4,000 workstation on a single screen because the dock you tried last year bottlenecked at 1080p and dropped a connection every third day.
This is the one that doesn't. The MBEAT HDL18 pushes triple 4K at 60Hz through a combination of native USB-C DP-Alt (HDMI 2.0) and DisplayLink technology on two additional outputs. Three full-resolution screens, no splitting, no frame-rate compromise.
96W PD passthrough keeps your laptop charged through the dock's single upstream cable. The 135W power adapter is in the box and covers the dock, your peripherals and that 96W to your machine. If you're running a high-performance laptop that wants 140W, you'll still get 96W out of the dock – slightly slower top-up under peak load, but it holds.
Two downstream USB-C 10Gbps ports (one with 20W PD for your phone or tablet) and four USB-A 5Gbps ports handle every peripheral without a hub chain. Gigabit Ethernet. Separate headphone and microphone jacks so you're not sharing one port with the intern. K-Lock slot for the office that's had a laptop walk off before.
DisplayLink driver required – grab it from Synaptics, install once, and it's plug-and-display after that. Works across Windows 7 to 11, macOS Mojave through Sonoma (M1/M2/M3), Linux, Chrome OS and Android.
Add to cart. Three 4K screens by your next sprint planning
