Decision bench

Choose the check that matches your decision.

Each result separates calculation, declared fit, missing evidence, and what a browser cannot observe.

Eight workbenches

Enter through the system you are planning.

Tools can appear in several workbenches when a dock shares charging, data, display, and tunnel constraints.

Charging

USB-C Power Delivery & PPS

Fixed profiles, PPS ranges, current requirements, complete chains, and shared-port tables.

Charging workbench →
Cables & data

Requirements, claims, ports, and bottlenecks

Select cable requirements, decode cable and port claims, and screen data paths.

Cable workbench →
USB4 & Thunderbolt

Feature paths and tunnel budgets

Check optional workload features, shared traffic planning, exact port claims, and isolation.

USB4 workbench →
Video adapters

Direction, conversion, and feature chains

Classify active/passive direction and check HDR, VRR, HDCP, audio, and DSC.

Adapter workbench →
Displays

Payload, DSC, lanes, MST, and topology

Calculate display demand, compression, lane use, ordinary MST, and dock requirements.

Display workbench →
Docks & hubs

Functions, power, data, tunnels, and failures

Build requirements, budget power, inspect shared links, and run direct/dock isolation.

Dock workbench →
HDMI routing

Switches, splitters, matrices, and mixed displays

Select a topology, reserve ports, screen EDID/downscaling, plan audio, and isolate route failures.

HDMI routing workbench →
Power over Ethernet

PoE classes, equipment, budgets, and failures

Match PSE/PD classes, choose switches or injectors, plan total and pass-through power, screen passive PoE, and isolate faults.
