Key Features

96 W USB-C Power Delivery for connected laptops
7 USB ports for desk peripherals and accessories
Integrated Gigabit Ethernet for wired network access
DisplayLink-based HDMI or DisplayPort output support
Remote firmware updates and port-status monitoring

Give IT administrators remote visibility into shared-desk connectivity while supplying users with wired networking, peripheral connectivity, display outputs, and laptop charging from one USB-C connection. StarTech 194N-USBC-SMARTDOCK combines Gigabit Ethernet, seven USB ports, DisplayLink-based HDMI or DisplayPort output support, and up to 96 W USB-C Power Delivery for hot-desk and flexible-workspace installations. Smart Dock Manager provides real-time status information for dock connections and ports, helping administrators identify disconnected devices or port-related issues without relying solely on user reports. The management software also supports remote firmware updates, allowing dock firmware to be maintained across deployed workstations. Manual installation and automated software rollout options are available through INF, EXE, and MSI packages. DisplayLink-based video support accommodates environments using HDMI or DisplayPort displays, including locations where monitor connections vary by desk or user. Windows, macOS, and ChromeOS compatibility makes the dock suitable for mixed endpoint fleets. The combination of centrally managed dock status, remote firmware control, wired GbE access, seven USB connections, and 96 W charging separates it from basic USB-C expansion adapters that only provide local connectivity.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I confirm 194N-USBC-SMARTDOCK is the right dock for my deployment?▾

Match the dock to deployments that need USB-C laptop charging up to 96 W, wired Gigabit Ethernet, seven USB connections, and managed dock monitoring. It is suited to hot-desk environments where IT needs remote firmware updates and port-status visibility.

What can Smart Dock Manager monitor?▾

Smart Dock Manager provides real-time visibility into dock connections and port status. Administrators can use that information to identify connection issues and can remotely update dock firmware across deployed desks instead of servicing each dock individually.

Which operating systems are supported?▾

The dock supports Windows, macOS, and ChromeOS environments. This enables a shared-desk configuration to support mixed endpoint fleets without limiting the dock management and connectivity role to one desktop operating system.

What display connections does the dock support?▾

Display output is based on DisplayLink technology and supports HDMI or DisplayPort monitor environments. The dock can therefore fit desks with different display connector standards, subject to the connected host system and display configuration.
