Hi,

I am looking for a way to plug in as well as charge my BTO Macbook 12 to a NEC PA 271W monitor.

Google store is selling a USB-C to Displayport Cable but I am wondering how I can then power the laptop.

I have a Caldigit Thunderbolt dock. Is there any way I can connect the Macbook 12 using a cable to this device? I love the Caldigit with my Macbook 13" 2011 because it connects to 2 monitors, hard drives and mouse using a hub.

You will need to wait until an powered adapter or hub is released with DP or a second USB C port.
