More Information: What is this monitor? How does it work?
This display is a large monitor for your computer.
There may be a computer installed between the monitor and the wall.
This display is not a TV and cannot accept a television signal.
Due to this fact, this guide will call this display a monitor.
This monitor has HDMI inputs and one USB-C input.
This monitor acts as a USB Hub.
Can send peripheral devices to multiple host devices.
How does this monitor handle USB?
The USB-C input
Looking at the back of the monitor, you will see a standard USB-C port with a DP, or “DisplayPort”, label. This cable carries both your video and the connection to the optional USB devices (camera, mouse, keyboard, etc.)
USB Hub
| Tip |
|---|
A “hub” combines many inputs and sends them to one output. The presence of this USB Hub built into the monitor allows you to use your USB devices with whichever device you are viewing on the screen. |
Looking at the back of the monitor, you will see four USB-A ports. These are the rectangular connectors you are likely familiar with. You will plug your peripherals into these ports, such as cameras, microphones, mice, and keyboards.
You will also see three USB-B ports above the USB-A ports. These B ports act as “downlinks” to the host devices. You will plug your computer and laptop into these downlink ports. Each downlink (USB-B) is associated with the HDMI port closest to it. Therefore, one you are using Input 1 on the monitor, the monitor will send all the peripheral devices out the top downlink port. When you are viewing input two, your peripherals will be sent out the USB-B port second from the top. The third, fourth, and full-size DisplayPort connector all share the third USB downlink. Please click on the diagram below for more information.

This monitor features a USB Hub that allows you to plug USB devices into it, such as the camera and a mouse and keyboard. This monitor also has multiple USB outputs, one for each video input. What this means is, when you have the built-in computer showing on the monitor, those USB devices are sent to the computer. When you have your laptop showing on the monitor, the USB devices are sent to your laptop using the supplied USB-A cable.
