Is it safe to connect Dell WD15 K17A to Xbox Series X (using USB -> USBC adapter)

Thank you for contact us! I'm Anderson, an Independent Consultant and a Microsoft user like you.

good evening

It is generally safe to use a USB-C docking station with an Xbox Series X, as long as the docking station is compatible with the console and does not draw too much power. The Xbox Series X has a maximum power draw of about 345 watts, and most docking stations do not draw enough power to exceed this limit.

However, it is always a good idea to be cautious when connecting devices to your console, especially if they have the ability to draw significant amounts of power. If you are concerned about the safety of using the Dell WD15 docking station with your Xbox Series X, you may want to consider using a USB sharing switch as you suggested. This will allow you to connect the docking station to the switch, which can then be connected to the console via a USB port. This will help to reduce the risk of any problems occurring.

I hope this information helps!

The Xbox Series X does have only one USB port on the front, which can be limiting when connecting multiple USB devices. However, there are a couple of ways to connect two USB microphones for Let's Sing 2023 on your Xbox Series X.

Option 1: USB Hub

The most straightforward solution is to use a USB hub. A USB hub is a device that allows you to connect multiple USB devices to a single USB port. You can connect the two USB microphones to the USB hub, and then plug the USB hub into the Xbox Series X's front USB port.

Option 2: USB Adapter

If you don't have a USB hub, you can use a USB adapter. A USB adapter is a device that allows you to connect a USB device to a different type of port, such as an audio jack or a microphone jack. You can connect one of the USB microphones to the Xbox Series X's controller using an adapter, and then connect the other microphone to the front USB port.

Which option is better?

The better option for you will depend on your specific needs and preferences. A USB hub is the more versatile option, as it will allow you to connect more USB devices in the future. However, a USB adapter is a more affordable option, and it will be smaller and more portable.

I hope this helps! Don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions or need additional clarification.

No, not necessarily. The Xbox One Wireless adapter has extra functionality, but for basic wireless use you can connect via Bluetooth. If your PC doesn't have Bluetooth a BT dongle can be purchased for less than $10/€7.

Note that the Xbox One controllers can also be connected via USB cable. The Xbox One uses a Micro USB cable, Series X controllers are USB C.
