Works here with the Macbook Pro 14 M1 Pro, but only 1 screen. The second screen must be plugged directly into the Macbook via the HDMI interface.
Yes, the Thunderbolt cable is included.

You can connect the second monitor using one of the two DisplayPort ports. If your monitor only has HDMI, you will need a suitable DisplayPort-to-HDMI adapter or a corresponding cable.

Yes, this is possible with both the MacBook Air M4 and the HP laptop. DisplayLink is only required if it’s a USB-C port, as MacBooks don’t have MST.
Can I work with this docking station with the Macbook Air M4 and my HP Notebook without DisplayLink?

Yes, with the MacBook Air M4, you can generally use the docking station without DisplayLink, and it is also supported for macOS. The same applies to your HP notebook, provided it supports Thunderbolt 4, Thunderbolt 3 Alt Mode, or USB4 via USB-C; according to HP, this is required for full data and video functions.
Important: With Mac, there may be limitations regarding additional functions because HP does not provide Ethernet and audio drivers for Mac. However, basic functions such as charging, peripherals, and video generally work without DisplayLink.

Yes — with this docking station, you connect to the laptop via USB-C, but the video outputs at 6K are apparently not designed for HDMI or DisplayPort, but for USB-C.
If you specifically want 6K via DisplayPort or HDMI, you need a different dock; many USB-C docks only provide up to 4K via HDMI/DP, while 6K is often only possible via USB-C or Thunderbolt.
For your scenario, it's important:
- USB-C as a connection to the laptop: supported.
- DisplayPort and HDMI available: yes, but according to the available information, with a maximum of 4K.
- 6K via DisplayPort or HDMI: I don't have suitable confirmation for this here; the available information rather suggests otherwise.
I'm not entirely sure if this is the exact model you mean, but according to the available information, it doesn't fit your 6K DisplayPort/HDMI goal. If you like, I can help you narrow down the exact docking station category that supports 6K via DP or HDMI.

I'm not entirely certain about this answer because the available information does not specifically address your HP USB-C 100W G6 Dock or the future MacBook Air M5.
Native 4K 120Hz support on macOS via USB-C-HDMI requires macOS 26 (or newer) with HDMI 2.1 FRL support, a compatible HDMI 2.1 FRL adapter/dock, and a firmware update (often still being finalized for some products). On macOS, this support is not limited to Windows: it also works on macOS with macOS 26+, but it is limited by the Mac's GPU capabilities (e.g., only one 4K 120Hz screen for MacBook Airs without lid closed on M3+).
The MacBook Air M5 does not yet exist (the latest known model is M3/M4), so its specific compatibility cannot be confirmed. If your HP dock supports HDMI 2.1 FRL and you can install the required firmware, then 4K 120Hz is possible on macOS 26+, without limitation to Windows. However, check the official HP documentation to confirm if this model supports HDMI 2.1 FRL and if it has the necessary firmware.

We purchase this docking station from several suppliers at home and abroad, so unfortunately we cannot guarantee that the CH version will be delivered with an order.
This model is not a Thunderbolt dock, which is why macOS often does not support a true dual-monitor setup via USB-C. Therefore, 2 monitors are not reliably guaranteed, even with a MacBook Pro with M4 Pro.
For a stable setup with two monitors, a Thunderbolt docking station is still recommended.

We source our products from different suppliers to ensure availability as far as possible. As soon as a supplier does not have the item in stock, we switch to a supplier with higher availability. Each supplier offers different prices, so there may be price differences. There can be various reasons for this, such as higher purchase prices for smaller quantities or additional import costs. We therefore work with daily prices. See here: galaxus.ch/en/wiki/6028
According to our supplier data, the cable shown is included in the scope of delivery.
No. I use an Apple Studio Thunderbolt Monitor - works perfectly with the dock. Have you installed the latest HP firmware for the G6? Maybe this fixes the problem or read the release notes to see if there are any hints for a possible fix...
Helpful answer
The manufacturer numbers should be read as follows: 9X472UT is the product that is the same for both suppliers, so there is no technical difference. #UUZ is the Swiss version with the Swiss power plug #ABB is usually an EU version with an EU power plug. However, we send a suitable power cable or power adapter with an EU product. Ultimately, there is no difference between the two offers for the user.

I was able to do some research and this is indeed a challenge for many Apple users. Apple computers (Macbook, Mac Mini, etc.) do not support MST (Multi Stream Transport), so you either have to use Thunderbolt docking stations or ones with DisplayLink:
Example Thunderbolt dock: https://www.galaxus.ch/de/s1/product/hp-thunderbolt-120-w-g4-dock-thunderbolt-11-ports-dockingstation-usb-hub-21359396
Example DisplayLink dock: https://www.galaxus.ch/de/s1/product/hp-usb-ca-universal-dockingstation-g2-usb-c-dockingstation-usb-hub-11819338
Incidentally, DisplayLink is a software solution and must be operated with software and is not native. The Macbook also has limitations. The following is possible with the Macbook Air 2019 according to Apple:
- Simultaneous support of the full native resolution on the integrated display with millions of colours and:
- An external display with a resolution of 5120 x 2880 pixels at up to 60 Hz
- Up to two external displays with a resolution of 4096 x 2304 pixels at up to 60 Hz
For office employees, I recommend the solution with DisplayLink, otherwise Thunderbolt is the better option with the better quality.

Both. You have to loosen the base of the docking station to get to it (as with the previous version), but this time without a screwdriver but only via a slider, then press the base flap towards the cable outlet. Ergo "removable" or "replaceable", but not easy to pull out.

Yes, the docking station works with your EliteBook 650 G10 under Windows 11 and Linux Mint as well as with 2 HP E27m G4 screens including integrated cameras.
It is compatible with Windows and Linux as your EliteBook has a Thunderbolt 4 port and the dock officially supports ChromeOS, Linux, Mac OS and Windows. The 3 video ports (2x DisplayPort 1.4, 1x HDMI 2.1) enable 2 external monitors in FHD or higher resolutions without any problems. The integrated cameras of the monitors are supported via DisplayPort Alt Mode as long as the monitors use DisplayPort 1.4.

Hello Dwighty,
yes, this will work with your HP EliteBook 6 G1i running Windows 11 Pro. The docking station supports up to 3 external displays, including dual 4K configurations at 60Hz via its DisplayPort (2x) and HDMI (1x) ports, which covers your 3440x1440 and 3840x2160 (4K) resolutions. Make sure you use Thunderbolt 4 cables and install the latest HP drivers for optimal performance.

The docking station is not only compatible with HP products, but also with selected third-party systems with USB-C or Thunderbolt 4 connection. It works with most HP USB-C and Thunderbolt 4 systems as well as some non-HP devices that support these standards.

Detachable under the bonnet, which is easy to remove, very well designed!
We work with daily prices, which can be influenced by various factors such as purchasing conditions, stock levels and supply and demand. You can find more information about this here: https://www.galaxus.ch/de...

This docking station works by default with an HP Elite without requiring specific drivers for basic functions, including the display and RJ45 port. It uses a Thunderbolt connection, which is generally supported natively by modern Windows systems such as the HP Elite. The display (video) and RJ45 network port therefore work without additional driver installation in most cases. However, for certain advanced functions or optimised management, it may be necessary to enable HP Quick Connect in the computer's BIOS and on the docking station.
