Posted .Hello,
Sounds like you are pleased with the design of the JCD543. Having the extra ports will give you future expansion space for additional monitors and peripherals. I hope that you have a good day.

Buggy
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This doesn't work well. One problem I'm having is internet through the attached ethernet cable suddenly disconnecting. This has happened very inconveniently when I'm leading Zoom meetings with 50 people in them. I've finally decided that it's the docking station, because other devices using my router have not stopped working. In order to get the ethernet connection working again, I have to eject the external hard drives connected to this docking station and then unplug and replug it to the mac. The other thing that doesn't work well is that if my external screen is turned off, the docking station doesn't seem to notice and the mac keeps putting windows up there. I can't use or close the windows, e.g. my browser, when the screen is turned off. So my mac thinks the browser is open, for instance, but I can't use it. This is inconvenient, because the screen is attached to a UPS, which takes time to fire up. I don't like this device. Now that I'm seeing that it is responsible for my Zoom meetings crashing I have to figure out whether it's still under warranty or not.

Posted .It sounds like you're experiencing several issues with the USB-C Triple Display Docking Station, particularly related to Ethernet connectivity and display behavior.
Ensure that the Ethernet cable is in good condition and securely connected to both the docking station and the router.
Check the settings on your router, including DHCP settings. Ensure that there are no conflicts with other devices on the network.
Adjust the power management settings on your Mac to ensure that it doesn't power down the USB ports, affecting the docking station's connectivity.
Check the graphics or display settings on your Mac. Ensure that it is configured to handle the external display properly, even when it is turned off.
Adjust the power management settings on your Mac to prevent it from sending windows to the external display when it is turned off.
Check the power settings on the external screen itself. Some monitors have settings related to power-saving modes and behavior when turned off.
**We advise no more than one (1) bus-powered/portable external hard disk drive to be connected to the Docking Station at a time.
** Feel free to contact j5create Technical Support if you require further assistance. Their information can be found on our website under the Support tab. Thank you.

Sorry to hear that the JCD543 was too much for your needs. We also have smaller docks that are more portable like the JCD383:

C hub
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Exactly what I was looking for and it works perfect
I would recommend this to a friend Exactly... not what I needed
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Exactly what I was looking for and needing when I purchased my surface pro 7. “Exactly needed” only lasted about 3 months or less and now it’s exactly what I don’t need. Video Ports (1/2 of them so far) have failed, no video output on those ports (not in front of it but I believe the failed units are 1 HDMI and 1 USBC or VGA, or maybe both are HDMI as I’m now having to use 1 HDMI and 1 display port....and yes I have swapped cables for new and/or higher quality, swapped output ports, etc. to diagnose the issue. The issue is this unit did not last for me and was very expensive for what it is and how long it lasted. One of the extended display randomly turns off and on which I’m assuming I’m about to be 3/4 dead on display ports on this unit. Unless this is just a lemon, then I do not recommend this product...I also do not recommend the surface doc either. Neither are good options for surface pro 7 with 2 external display in extended screen mode. And yes both displays are newish, up to date higher end displays.

Great Dock For MacBook Pro
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm using on a 2019 13" MacBook Pro dual thunderbolt. It works great. it gives you so many option as for connection. Great for photographers. The only thing that I wasn't able to get to work as I hope was an older apple keyboards usb connection. The keyboard itself work but not the USB. I end up buying a usb 3 to USB 2 connector to plug the keyboard direct to the Mac.
