Hey everyone,

I need more USB-C ports. I have 3 monitors plugged into the USB-C/TB3 ports via USB-C cables and they definitely don't have to be taking up the TB3 slots, so I'm hoping there's a hub with at least 3 usb-c ports out there. I'm looking around and all the ones I'm finding seem to be aimed at laptop users and have things like ethernet, usb-a and other unnecessary (for me) ports.

Is there one out there that has just USB-C ports on it?

This seems to be my best bet, but it's pretty overkill since it's thunderbolt. However, it seems like you can only do 1 display per tb3 port which is fine - i can do 1 monitor off this device and have a few more ports for anything else I need.

I second the CalDigit products, they are perfectly capable of fulfilling those needs and then some.

I also have the T3 Plus and it has more than suited my needs.

If you only need Thunderbolt 4/USB-C then get the CalDigit Thunderbolt 4 Element Hub:

You get 3 x Thunderbolt 4/USB-C and 4 x USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 10Gbps ports.

If you want to connect two displays to a Thunderbolt port then use a Thunderbolt dock or hub or Thunderbolt 3 to Dual DisplayPort adapter. The latter is the least expensive. You can chain Thunderbolt hubs and docks together.
