External Dell monitor does to work when connected through Kensington USB 3.0 Docking station

I need technical help.


My MacBook Air does not detect the Dell external monitor when I connect it through the Kensington USB 3.0 Dock but works when I connect it to the Mac directly. Have already updated the latest Displaylink driver.


The external USB Hard disks are working through the dock but not the monitor. What to do?


MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.0

Yes, its Kensington Sv3500 USB 3.0 Superspeed Dock. It has a USB type A connector so I am using an Apple type C to the A adaptor. When I connect the Dell monitor directly to the Apple adaptor, it works fine however when I connect the monitor to the Dock, it does not work or even detect the external monitor.


The hard disks connected to the Kensington are working fine though.

Thanks...
