KAHBCSTMDKA 6 In 1 Steam Deck Docking System

SAFETY & WARNINGS

  • Ensure that your protective case is less than 2mm in thickness. DO NOT use a Protective Case with Kickstand.

  • To achieve 4K@60Hz output, make sure to:
    o Use an HDMI to HDMI 2.0/2.1 cable shorter than 15 feet.
    o Manually switch to desktop mode and set the output to 4K@60Hz.
    o Set the in-game output to 4K@60Hz.

  • Adjust the resolution after entering desktop mode to achieve 4K output when connecting your Steam Deck to the Docking Station.

  • DO NOT use HDMI to display port cables or adapters.

  • When using an HDMI Switch (preferably 8K), ensure that the HDMI cables at both ends do not exceed 6.6 feet.

  • It is recommended to connect your Power Adapter (45W and above) while docking your Steam Deck to ensure stable video output and external device operation.

  • High image quality in resource-intensive games can strain the Steam Deck. Adjust game graphics settings to reduce latency for external devices during gameplay.

  • When plugging or unplugging the PD adapter, connected USB devices will quickly disconnect and reconnect within seconds. To prevent data loss or damage, avoid disconnecting the PD adapter from the AC while transferring data or power connections.

  • When connecting to the TV and there is no signal, make sure to select the corresponding channel. If the issue persists, restart the Steam Deck and reinsert the HDMI cable.

  • In desktop mode, you can choose to display the external monitor simultaneously with the Steam Deck or set one of them to be the primary screen.

FAQ

1. How do I ensure the output is 4K@60Hz?

Use an HDMI to HDMI 2.0/2.1 cable no more than 4.5m in length and use as few cable adapters as possible. Manually debug your steam deck into desktop mode and set 4K@60Hz output. You also need to set it in-game if necessary.

2. Why do external devices such as mouse and keyboard not work well when docking?

When docking your Steam Deck, ensure you connect your power adapter to provide sufficient power supply.

3. Why does the Ethernet not work?

After the SteamOS is upgraded, you need to manually enter the desktop mode and connect the wired network. Turn off Wi-Fi or set the wired connection priority.

4. Why does the TV not recognize my sound bar and deactivate the CEC device?

In the Steam settings, click Audio → External Devices, now the audio can be transmitted to the TV.

5. Does the dock output video over USB-C port?

No, the USB-C port is for power delivery only.
