Perfect for Chromebook
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Perfect for connecting an external monitor to my daughter’s Chromebook for School from Home. The cheapo school issued Chromebooks only had one USB-C port for both power and monitor (no HDMI port). This device passes through the USB-C power from the adapter, allows an external monitor, and adds USB ports.

Posted .Hello,
The JCD383 will let you get a lot of functionality out of a single USB-C port. Many computers are being manufactured with fewer ports these days making some kind of docking station almost a requirement to get the full functionality out of your laptop. I hope that you have a good day.
Cheers,

Posted .Hello Robin,
This adapter is a great addition to a newer laptop that supports display port alternate mode over USB C. This adapter is plug and play so there are no drivers to install. It provides an array of ports that are not frequently included on newer laptops. I hope that you have a great day.
Thanks,

Best I can say, it works
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It does work, as advertised. But, it gets VERY VERY hot I'm not sure why - I've googled the subject and it is common with this device, but nobody knows why or how to fix it It works - And, will replace it with a bigger one with more ports soon

Posted .Hello Glenn, thank you for the input you have on the JCD383. Unfortunately because electricity pass through the device while in use, it will slightly become warm and that is normal. However, if the JCD383 is becoming too hot, we definitely recommend exchanging it for safety purposes. Another really good device we recommend looking into would be the JCD381 as well.

Great usb c multi powered port.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wish it opened up more usb c ports so that way I would have easier access to plug in usb c hard dives. Other than that it works great for downloading videos and pictures quality wise it has sped up my downloading of my videos. I look forward to using it.
I would recommend this to a friendProvides good ports for my laptop
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plugs into the usb type c port on the pc. HP told me it is best to plug it into the regular type c port rather than the thunderbolt type c. Thunderbolt drivers are updated more frequently and this caused me a problem initially, because the latest driver was not installed.

Posted .Good day to you Phil,
Glad to hear that you got the JCD383 working with your computer. This adapter does not require any drivers itself. However it does require that you plug it into a USB-C port that supports display port alternate mode. Not all USB-C ports support this mode.
Have a good day,

Gets the job done
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you need multiple ports, this is a decent hub for the job. I'm rating it as average because it heats up quite a bit. Maybe it's the devices I'm plugging in but the temperature is high enough that I do what I need with it & then unplug quickly.
