    At work both my monitors and networking go through the same port. The monitor also acts as a usb hub.

    You can buy an adapter and plug everything in one port.

    I love it personally.

      You can only do that because your monitors are not high resolution and high refresh rate. The data cap for usb-c is not that high.

        USB-C is just a connector, but Thunderbolt 5 uses it and for asymmetric uses (e.g. a monitor) it can hit 120Gbps.

        Isn’t that going to support most monitors?
