The upper limit (in this case the HDMI 1.4 port, with a max ceiling of 5Gbps if the hub is fully utilized) is what limits it to 4k@30hz, so you should be able to mix & match whatever refresh rates/resolutions HDMI 1.4 can support below this threshold. The standard supported resolutions/refresh rates for HDMI 1.4 in my experience have been 4k@30, 2k@60hz (although it should theoretically go up to 75hz) and 1080p@144hz. Anyone who wants 4k@60hz will need to make sure the hub they buy is using an HDMI 2.0 port.
These limits apply to additional displays that are added through other "nonstandard" ports as well—e.g., you can plug in multiple monitors to this hub using various interfaces (USB-C, USB-A, etc.), but the resolution/refresh rate will always be limited by the bandwidth limitations of the interface itself.
There are also other considerations, like cable types and the port you're actually plugging the device into; I once made the mistake of buying a laptop with an early USB-C connection that was just a regular USB 3.0 port that didn't support Thunderbolt/DisplayPort. I was pretty pissed.
Turns out, they were secretly streaming a continuous feed of your cameras to their cloud, and it wasn't even encrypted. Anyone in the world could tune in with a stock install of VLC player and watch you in your own house, without your knowledge.
So, when the security researcher privately informed Eufy of this severe security flaw, they immediately fixed it and informed their customers of the issue.
Oh, wait, that's not it. They repeatedly flat out claimed that this secret unencrypted video stream going to their servers didn't exist, and it was impossible for anyone to view your camera stream.
"I can confirm that it is not possible to start a stream and watch live footage using a third-party player such as VLC"
Except this was trivially easy to do, just open the URL for the stream in VLC, and now you're looking at yourself(or any other Eufy camera customer) through your computer screen. So news publications tried this themselves, and found they could easily independently verify that Eufy was lying.
So, Eufy gave in to pressure and updated their camera software to stop streaming your video out to the Internet, unencrypted.
No, wait, actually they quietly scrubbed all of their most promising privacy promises from their "privacy commitment" page, and stonewalled the media for weeks.

This was willful malicious behavior, not a simple accidental oversight on an advertised feature.
And yes, they did eventually cave to public pressure and fix it, but really only because their customers and the media forced their hand.
This is not a company that deserves any degree of trust.

hard pass.
to save other people time: the issues has to do with eufy's claim of encrypted video .
it turns out that the video triggered by alerts are encrypted and stored locally, but live steaming videos via web portal are not due to web site weren't designed for P2P encryption until earlier this year. stream video via app seem to be P2P encrypted.
particularly for the USB hub posted here.
i have no less than 5 USB C hubs from different brands, Anker included.
i eventually stopped using them and just get the docking station from Lenovo/HP/Dell (look them up on amazon, they are pretty cheap as second hand, and much better build quality).
the biggest issues with those 3rd party USB hubs are stability and reliability, especially when you use multi monitors and large size file transfers a the same time.
