I went a different way and purchased a 24" monitor which has the hub built in. Support for the standard display ports, USB / USBC and ethernet. I have one single USBC cable connecting to the laptop for power, ethernet and everything else. Seems like this is the way forward for me at least.


These are surprisingly hard to find. Not impossible, there just don’t seem to be a lot of them so quality options are in short supply. I had a dell one for a few years I loved. 2x USB3.0 ports in the back hosting 2x external HDD’s, power for my computer, and my monitor, all through one USB-C port. It was brilliant. Damn thing only lasted about 2.5-3yrs though. I was bummed to see it go.
