This has sparked an interesting idea to me. You could buy a third of (what I consider) a decent studio computer for the cost of one of those good hubs. And the more robust hubs look kind of expensive. (Getting multiple screens to work right appears to be a common complaint among Amazon reviews). Some of those USB hubs look like quite sensible solutions, so long as you get one which does HDMI switching correctly. However, I am perfectly willing to admit that this is probably old-school thinking. (Having two computers just makes sense, allowing for the DIY tech nerd in me to pull one apart as needed while the other can serve as diagnostic tool and internet look-up guide.)
Plus, I fully appreciate and make use of the redundancy factor. Only svelte mobile gear needs to cost more than a couple hundred dollars these days. One nice thing about a dedicated desktop computer is that it can be (and in my case, is), cheap and ugly without sacrificing power or port options.

If I had to perform minor mechanical surgery on my studio setup every time I wanted to go from portable to desktop mode, I'd probably feel reluctant to pack up or deploy. The stick is the common unit between me and whatever computer I'm working on, carrying all relevant files. They communicate by me sharing files with a USB stick. An elegant solution would be nice (everything through a single Thunderbolt port that goes to a hub), but I'll take a little bit messy if I can just get everything connected in some way.įor me, I keep my mobile and studio computers separate. I've searched on google, and not been able to find anyone doing what I'm pondering, specifically with the Cintiq (which is to feed the DVI and usb-a inputs through a single usb-c thunderbolt connection), but I'm also curious how many other things I can run off a hub at once. Can I plug one (or both?) cables from the cintiq into a hub and have the signal for both cables be routed to my laptop through a single usb-c thunderbolt port? Is there a way to use three ports on my laptop to be able to connect to all the things I want at the same time?Īny help would be appreciated. But what about my Cintiq? 2 of my usb-c ports are thunderbolt, and when I had the Huion tablet, I was able to use just usb-c to usb-c for both display input and pen input.

Is a hub going to do what I need? I'm assuming I could plug in the dongle for my keyboard, plus an iphone charger into the hub, and they could directly connect to the laptop through a single port.
occasionally, the charging cable for my iphone So, my Samsung Flex has 2 thunderbolt usb-c ports, and the power port (on the left) is a normal usb-c connection.
BUT I now don't have enough connections on my laptop now, and need advice for this sort of setup, as I've never actually owned or used a 2nd monitor (by which I mean the Cintiq). It's much more consistent (it's actually perfect now), but. I've been using their USB dongle connector for a direct connection too.

I've also got a new Thinkpad Bluetooth keyboard (which I absolutely love typing on), but it's bluetooth connections is very spotty. So, I've got my new (used) Cintiq 22hd set up, and it runs well off my Samsung Galaxy Flex.
