Welcome to the Apple Support Communities.


Unfortunately, since these are not Apple products or sold on the Apple Store, you'd need to contact the manufacturer for help: Contact a third-party vendor - Apple Support.

That Dock connects to the Mac with a USB-C cable, only. Macs do not innately support more than one hardware-accelerated display over a USB-C connection, and that dock is not a DisplayLink display.


so it will not be possible to use that Dock to connect TWO displays to any Mac.


Kensington does appear to make a similar dock that supports a DisplayLink display, which uses software to fake a display for slow-to-change data like stock quotes and program listings.


Your display look like 1920 by 1080 displays with these possible connections:

(1) DisplayPort (DP) 1.2

(1) HDMI 1.4

(1) VGA


so with some straightforward adapters, these could be directly connected without the need for a dock, but you would need two cables.


The Mac only supports multiple displays on one cable when connecting to genuine Thunderbolt devices -- so the first device must be a ThunderBolt dock or ThunderBolt display. The second can be whatever ports the first device has.
