15-dy2088ca
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I would like to know if my HP laptop (15-dy2088ca) will connect to a docking station (Kensington 38249 SD4800P) that has USB-C Alt Mode connectivity. From the HP website the laptop has a "SuperSpeed USB Type-C® 5Gbps signaling rate" port. Will the laptop connect to the Kensington docking station properly via the USB-C port to allow use of all of the ports on the docking station (HDMI, USB-A, etc.)?

The specs of your machine is

It ONLY has 1 hopeless SuperSpeed USB Type-C® 5Gbps signaling rate port which does NOT support Alt mode nor Power Delivery. You can NOT use it to

  • Charge your machine,
  • Connect to an external monitor with/without hub/dock/adapter (some hubs may have builtin chip to support this)

Regards.
