Anker releases affordable 10-in-1 dock with smart display and 240Hz refresh rate support

The Anker Desktop USB-C Hub is now available to buy in the US through Amazon and the Anker store. Unveiled at IFA 2026 alongside a new 100W laptop charger, the 10-in-1 USB-C hub stands out for its support for high-refresh-rate displays.

As far as budget USB-C hubs go, the Anker Desktop USB-C Hub has a few things going for it. For one, it supports a single 4K monitor at up to 144Hz or dual 4K monitors at 60Hz through HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4. For gamers with 1440p monitors, it can push the refresh rate to 240Hz, so you can take advantage of higher frame rates without dropping the resolution to 1080p.

10 ports of connectivity with smart monitoring

The Anker Desktop USB-C Hub offers a total of 10 ports, including the HDMI and DisplayPort. On the front, there is a 10Gbps USB-C port alongside SD and microSD 3.0 card slots. Around the back, you get a 100W USB-C PD input, a 10Gbps USB-A port, two extra 5Gbps USB-A ports, and Gigabit Ethernet. The hub connects to a laptop or PC over USB-C and can provide up to 80W of passthrough charging when using a 100W PD charger.

Anker has also included a smart display that can show live information, including monitor resolution, refresh rate, and charging speed, something we saw on the Anker Prime Docking Station DL7400 (curr: $259.99 on Amazon). However, the new desktop hub not only costs less but also supports native 4K output instead of relying on DisplayLink.

Buyers can purchase the Anker Desktop USB-C Hub in iron gray or starlight silver. At the time of writing, we could not find live listings for Europe. For more information, check out our original launch article.
