Product Description
Two 4K@60Hz USB-C Video Outputs — No HDMI Compromise
Most 9-in-1 docks ship with one HDMI port and one USB-C video port, which forces users to choose between "modern" and "legacy" display connections. The HBC109 takes a different position: two dedicated USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode outputs, both capable of 3840×2160 @60Hz simultaneously, with HDCP 1.4 / 2.2 content protection.

This is the right choice for users who've moved to modern 4K USB-C monitors and don't want an HDMI port they'll never use. Connect two external displays directly via USB-C cable, run extended mode on Windows (MST) for a true dual-screen workspace, or mirror to both for presentations.
A note on macOS: Apple's system limits extended-mode output via Alt Mode to one external display at 4K@60Hz. This is a macOS-side behavior, not a dock limitation — the same constraint applies to all USB-C docks on macOS without DisplayLink drivers.
Every Port Runs at 10Gbps — Not Just Some
A common complaint with multi-port docks is that "USB 3.2" sometimes means Gen1 (5Gbps) on some ports and Gen2 (10Gbps) on others. The spec sheet rarely makes this obvious until you plug in an NVMe SSD and watch it run at half the expected speed.
On the HBC109, every downstream USB port — the 2 USB-C 3.2 Gen2, the 2 USB-A 3.2 Gen2 data ports, and the 2 USB-C video/data combo ports — runs at the full 10Gbps rate. An external NVMe SSD reaches ~1050MB/s real-world throughput on any port. No guesswork, no checking which port does what.
100W PD Input — 85W to the Host
A dedicated Type-C PD 3.0 input handles up to 100W charging input from a standard USB-C power adapter. After accounting for the dock's own ~15W internal consumption under load, roughly 85W remains available to pass through to the host laptop — enough to sustain a 16-inch workstation laptop under heavy workload.
Aluminum Alloy Construction — Thermal Management That Shows Up Under Load
The housing is aluminum alloy + ABS plastic in phantom gray and black. This isn't a cosmetic decision. Under sustained mixed load (dual 4K + gigabit Ethernet + external SSD copy), the full-plastic alternatives in this class typically reach 48–52°C surface temperature; the HBC109's aluminum shell stabilizes around 42–45°C, measurably better for long chip lifespan and consistent performance during multi-hour work sessions.

Gigabit Ethernet, Dual Card Reader, Compact Form Factor
· 1× RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000M) for wired connections where Wi-Fi congestion becomes a bottleneck
· 1× SD card slot + 1× TF (microSD) card slot, both UHS-I compliant (Note: SD and TF cannot display simultaneously — SD takes priority when both are inserted)
· Dimensions 117.7 × 46 × 15.22 mm — slim enough to sit cleanly behind a laptop without cable clutter
· 25 cm integrated USB-C cable — the middle ground between desktop (50 cm) and travel (15 cm) cable lengths
Built on Proven Controller Silicon
Under the hood, the HBC109 uses a carefully selected chipset combination:
· Genesys Logic GL3590 — USB 3.2 hub controller, known for thermal stability and low idle draw
· Realtek RTD2145 — DisplayPort scaler / display controller driving the dual video outputs
· Realtek RTL8153B — Gigabit Ethernet MAC/PHY, improved power efficiency over the original RTL8153
· VIA VL103 — PD 3.0 protocol chip
· Realtek RTS5459 — PD controller
· Genesys Logic GL823K — Card reader controller

B2B Value Proposition
· CE certified, RoHS-compliant materials
· OEM/ODM services: custom logo, retail packaging, cable length, color options
· MOQ-friendly for wholesale buyers; sample orders welcomed
· Stable mass production with consistent quality control
· Flexible lead times for bulk orders, typically 20-30 days after artwork confirmation

Q1: Why does this dock have no HDMI port? Is that a drawback?
A1: It's a deliberate design choice. Both video outputs are USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode, aimed at users who own modern 4K USB-C monitors. If your setup requires HDMI, consider our HBC072 or HBC072M2 series which include a dedicated HDMI port. If you already use USB-C monitors, the HBC109 gives you two clean direct connections without conversion losses.
Q2: Can I get dual 4K@60Hz output on macOS?
A2: No. macOS limits extended-mode USB-C Alt Mode output to one external display. This is an Apple system restriction, not a hardware limitation of the dock — the same applies to every Alt Mode dock on the market. On macOS you can drive one external 4K@60Hz display, or use mirror mode on both. Full dual-display support in extended mode requires Windows.
Q3: Do all 6 USB ports really run at 10Gbps?
A3: Yes. All four "data" USB ports (2× USB-C + 2× USB-A) are USB 3.2 Gen2 at 10Gbps. The two USB-C video outputs also carry 10Gbps data alongside DisplayPort signal. An external NVMe SSD will reach approximately 1050MB/s real-world speed on any of these ports.
Q4: Does it charge my laptop?
A4: Yes, via PD passthrough. Connect a standard USB-C PD adapter (up to 100W) to the dedicated PD input port. The dock consumes ~15W internally for its own operation, so the host laptop receives up to 85W charging. A 65W adapter delivers ~50W to the host; a 100W adapter delivers ~85W. Sufficient for most 13-16" laptops under typical load.
Q5: Can SD and TF cards be read at the same time?
A5: No. The card reader supports one card at a time. If both SD and TF (microSD) are inserted simultaneously, the SD card takes priority. For users who frequently swap between both formats, this is a minor workflow consideration but does not affect speed or compatibility.
Q6: Will this dock work with my phone?
A6: Yes, if your phone has a USB-C port that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode (most flagship Android phones from 2020 onward, Samsung DeX devices, etc.). You can display the phone screen on an external 4K monitor, connect keyboard and mouse, and expand productivity. iPhones with Lightning ports are not compatible; USB-C iPhones should work for basic data and charging but video output varies by model.
Q7: Why aluminum housing instead of plastic?
A7: Two reasons: thermal performance and durability. Under sustained dual-4K + multi-port data load, internal chipsets generate meaningful heat. Aluminum dissipates this heat faster than plastic, keeping chips at optimal operating temperature and extending product lifespan. Aluminum is also more resistant to wear from daily plug/unplug cycles — relevant for devices in heavy rotation on shared desks or mobile workflows.
Q8: Is this dock compatible with Thunderbolt 3 / 4 laptops?
A8: Yes. Thunderbolt 3 and 4 ports are backward compatible with USB-C DP Alt Mode. The HBC109 has been tested and works on Thunderbolt-equipped laptops. Note that this is a USB 3.2 Gen2 dock, not a Thunderbolt dock — you will get 10Gbps bandwidth per port rather than Thunderbolt's 40Gbps aggregate.
Q9: Do you accept OEM / ODM orders?
A0: Yes. We offer custom logo printing, private retail packaging design, custom cable length and color, and color variation of the aluminum housing. Please contact our sales team with your target quantity and customization scope — MOQ typically starts around 500-1,000 pieces depending on request.
Q10: What is the warranty and lead time?
A10: Standard wholesale warranty is 12 months from shipment date for manufacturing defects. Extended warranty is available for large-volume buyers and ODM partners. Stock model lead time is 7-15 days; OEM/ODM projects are typically 20-30 days after artwork confirmation.
