HP Thunderbolt 4 Ultra 180W G6 Docking Station - 13-in-1 USB-C, Thunderbolt 4, 4K/5K Display Support - New

The HP Thunderbolt 4 Ultra 180W G6 Dock (9X481UT#ABA) is a 13-in-1 Thunderbolt 4 docking station built for enterprise desks, hybrid workspaces, and multi-monitor workstations. Connected over a single Thunderbolt 4 (40Gbps) cable, it delivers up to 180W of charging power to host notebooks that support the USB-C PD 3.1 Extended Power Range (EPR) standard, or up to 100W on non-EPR PD 3.1 hosts, while 2x DisplayPort 1.4 and 1x HDMI 2.1 outputs support up to four external 4K displays or a single 5K display depending on the host's GPU and OS. Eight additional USB-C and USB-A ports plus a 2.5GbE RJ-45 port round out the connectivity, and HP Wolf Security with HP Sure Start firmware protection keeps the dock secured from startup through disconnect.

HP Thunderbolt 4 Ultra 180W G6 Dock - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Will this dock work with a non-HP laptop or a Mac?
  Yes for core functionality — it's tested and validated with most HP USB-C/Thunderbolt 4 systems and tested with select third-party systems including Dell, Lenovo, and Apple. Windows 10/11 has full feature support; macOS, ChromeOS, Linux, and ThinPro are also listed as supported by HP, though not every management feature is validated on non-Windows systems.
• How much charging power does my laptop actually get?
  The included 230W power adapter supplies the dock and delivers up to 180W to the host notebook over Thunderbolt 4 on PCs that support the USB-C PD 3.1 Extended Power Range (EPR) standard. Hosts without EPR support receive up to 100W instead.
• Do HP Quick Connect and features like Wake-on-LAN or MAC address pass-through work with any laptop?
  No — per HP, these are validated only on HP or HP-supported notebooks. HP Quick Connect specifically requires enabling in both the BIOS and the dock, and is limited to select HP G11 and G12 Intel/AMD notebooks.
• How many monitors can I connect, and at what resolution?
  Up to four external 4K (3840x2160) displays at 60Hz, or a single 5K (5120x2880) display at 60Hz, using the Thunderbolt 4, DisplayPort 1.4, and HDMI 2.1 outputs together. Per HP, actual display count and resolution depend on the host notebook's GPU, operating system, and Thunderbolt/USB-C capabilities.
