Thanks!

No, there is no hub. I connect Type C cable from laptop directly to monitor. If you have a Type C monitor, the monitor itself represents a "central hub".

Here is the list of hardware I use:

  • Lenovo S740, i7-1065G7, 16 GB, 1 TB, 4K
  • 1st monitor (middle): Dell U2419HC - Type C monitor
  • 2nd monitor (left): Dell U2419H (same but non-Type C)
  • Logitech K280 keyboard
  • Logitech G502 Hero mouse

I connect Lenovo laptop into 1st monitor using Type C cable and then every other piece of hardware I connect to that monitor which you would call "central hub".

Let me know if you need more info.
