Pure Performance: Dual 4K, 100W PD, and Blazing-Fast 10 Gbps
The Cudy CS700 is a true multi-talent that will impress you. It not only supports the connection of two external 4K monitors (4096x2160 @ 60Hz) via HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.2a, but even allows the operation of a single 5K display (5120x2880 @ 60Hz) to offer you a breathtaking visual experience. Your notebook is charged via the upstream USB-C port with up to 100 Watts Power Delivery, so you are always supplied with full power during work. The six integrated USB ports – two USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 and four USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 – all deliver impressive data transfer rates of up to 10 Gbps, ideal for external SSDs, fast backups, or connecting high-performance hardware. A Gigabit Ethernet port ensures a stable and fast Network connection, while the 3.5mm audio combo jack supports headsets and speakers. The robust housing made of CNC-milled aluminum is not only a visual highlight but also extremely durable and resilient.
Maximum Compatibility for Any Environment
Thanks to its DisplayLink DL-6950-N chipset, the Cudy CS700 is extremely versatile and compatible with a wide range of operating systems. Whether you use Windows 7/8/8.1/10/11, macOS 10.14+, Ubuntu LTS 18.04+, ChromeOS R51+, or even Android 5+ (in mirror mode, Ethernet disabled) – this docking station adapts. Even the Nintendo Switch is supported when actively powered. This makes it the ideal solution for mixed IT environments or when switching between different devices. Automatic driver installation under Windows 10/11 and ChromeOS R51+ ensures an effortless start, while manual driver installations may be required for other systems. Integration into your existing Network has never been so easy!
Smart Details for Your Daily Work
To utilize the full performance of the Cudy CS700, ensure that your host device has a USB-C 3.2 Gen 2, USB4, or Thunderbolt 3/4 port. For the impressive 5K resolution, you need two DisplayPort cables to a compatible 5K monitor. For streaming services like Hulu or Netflix, it may be necessary to disable hardware acceleration in the browser to ensure smooth playback. Another practical feature is the integrated Kensington Security Slot, which allows you to protect your docking station from theft. The Cudy CS700 is thoughtfully designed down to the last detail to make your daily work more efficient and secure.
