The Anker 14-in-1 Charging Docking Station has a whopping 13 ports with an additional USB-C port for connecting to your laptop. The device boasts an abundance of USB-C and USB-A ports but lacks any card reader functionality. Display extension is possible for up to two displays and at 60Hz. This dock is compatible with Windows and Mac devices but macOS does not support Multi-Stream Transport.
Anker has done a fantastic job of providing excellent charging capabilities and data transfer functionality. Charging is made possible through four different ports spanning across three USB-C ports and one USB-A port. The upstream connection delivers 100W PD 3.0 charging providing a seamless connection to your laptop. A further two USB-C ports deliver 100W of charging power which is guaranteed to keep all your other devices fully charged. The final USB-A port tops out at 12W and is ideal for older-style electronics that still rely on this technology.
Alongside excellent power delivery, you can also transfer data across 11 ports. Speeds up to 10Gbps are possible although only across 2x USB-C and 1x USB-A ports. The three USB-A ports on the back are limited to 480Mbps.
Power and data transfer cover the core features of this device but that doesn't mean we're done with the features. Through two HDMI ports, Anker makes it possible to extend your display to two different monitors up to 60Hz. Unfortunately, due to macOS limitations, connecting multiple monitors to a MacBook via this dock will result in screen mirroring only as these operating systems support only Single-Stream Transport (SST). There are no such problems for Windows machines.
