Although it looks like they haven't really refreshed that product line since 2016. Seems like they're trying to pivot to wireless now that Alt Mode USB ports are mainstream.

For me, the main issue was the proprietary software I needed to run un the host computer. I also read somewhere it doesn't play well with Linux.

To be honest, I didn't even consider it before rolling my own solution because it was not immediately clear to me that it was something different from display port over USB
