The AXAGON HMC-KB-GE KEYBOARD hub transforms your phone, tablet, or mini notebook into a fully-fledged computer workstation. You can connect your mobile device to the 9-in-1 docking station via the included 60cm cable. In an instant, you have an integrated keyboard, an SD and microSD card reader, and connectors for an external monitor, three USB devices, headphones or a headset, and Power Delivery charging. However, your mobile device's USB-C port must support video output (DisplayPort Alternate Mode) and Power Delivery. Compatibility depends on an up-to-date operating system and support from the device manufacturer. The correct function of the product can also be affected by graphics card drivers. It is recommended to download the latest version of the drivers.

Keyboard in Elegant Aluminium
The keyboard, built into the hub's elegant aluminium body, features chiclet keys with a scissor mechanism and 2mm travel for precise and quiet typing. The keyboard offers adjustable backlighting in 5 levels, 12 multimedia keys, and the option to increase the tilt for comfortable and ergonomic use. Naturally, the keys are printed with a German layout.
HDMI Output
The HDMI output allows you to connect an external monitor, TV, or projector with resolutions up to 4K/60Hz Ultra HD, 2K/120Hz Quad HD, or 1080p/200Hz Full HD, and transmit multi-channel audio. Thanks to HDR support, you can enjoy a significantly expanded range of colours and contrasts without limitations. Support for the maximum resolutions and frequencies listed above requires connection to a computer with DisplayPort version 1.4. For the video output to function, the hub must be plugged into a USB-C port that supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode (DP Alt Mode) or a USB-C port with Thunderbolt 3/4 support. DisplayPort Alternate Mode (DP Alt Mode) is only supported on updated operating systems and also depends on support from the device (notebook, phone).
Three Outputs
Three USB-A 5Gbps outputs allow you to connect external drives (up to 2 simultaneously), a flash drive, a mouse, a printer, and other USB accessories. The USB ports also charge mobile phones and tablets with up to 7.5W of power. The memory card reader supports reading and writing of all versions of SD and microSD cards up to 2TB. The card reader allows you to work with cards in both slots simultaneously and copy directly between them. The 3.5mm audio output offers the option to connect stereo headphones, a headset, or active speakers.
Power Delivery
The PD USB-C input is designed for a suitable Power Delivery charger. This means both your mobile device and the hub are powered directly from the PD charger using Power Delivery 3.0 technology with a power output of up to 100W. PD must be supported by both the mobile device and the mains charger
Tablet Mode
The multiport hub with keyboard is ideal especially for users of Samsung phones and tablets with DeX support from the Z Fold series (from Fold3), Galaxy S (from S9), Note (from Note8), and Galaxy Tab S (from S4, excluding Lite and FE versions). The dock also enables desktop mode for Apple iPad Pro and iPad Air (from 2022) tablets. Additionally, it ensures compatibility with the iPad mini (from 2021) and iPhone 15 Pro / Pro Max phones, with the image being transmitted via mirroring.
