Axagon: “Everything Outside the PC.” Including USB4 (Type-C) Docks

Axagon also came to present its expertise at the HWCooling Techtour ‘26 conference. This Brno-based brand (whose reach extends beyond the Czech borders) is geographically the closest to us. And not only in that way: besides the technical mindset, we believe we also understand each other on a human level. What matters now, however, is what they brought and demonstrated to students at the schools. We have, as usual, documented it all.

If anyone decides to go work for Axagon, they have our approval. We somehow “clicked,” which is one of the reasons this brand was associated with all three editions of HWCooling Techtour. Incidentally, it belongs to a Czech company, which is not far from Slovakia. If someone does not want to go to the other side of the world, is interested in technology, and demonstrably has something to offer in this area… instead of a “job ad,” however, we will go on to focus on what Axagon brought to the schools this year.

The table with various devices was crammed to bursting, which viewers watching the broadcast could also notice. The camera team looked in that direction too. In the block of talks, however, there was a great deal of interesting material; judge for yourself. If anyone got the impression that those attending in person could pick up and try out the individual devices, yes, that is true, but those watching remotely, on the other hand, had clearer audio.

The talk covered docking stations, chargers, SSD enclosures, and everything else Axagon deals with. Mostly things that lead outside the computer to which they are connected via a USB connector. Of course, internal SSD coolers, which Axagon also makes, came up as well (as you may know, for example, from our tests).

At the exhibit at the school where we held the “dress rehearsal,” photos were also taken of some of the items, which are below.

… and one more Axagon docking station (USB-C) with the model designation HMC-UFO. Besides HDMI, USB, and RJ-45 connectors and (micro)SD memory card slots, it also allows mounting an M.2 (NVMe) SSD.

It is important to note that Axagon makes extensive use of USB-C connectivity, including the 40-gigabit standard (USB4), so that sufficiently high data throughput is available when needed.
