I’m looking to split my single usb-c port into separate video output and power input (Power delivery) via a usb-c hub of some sort.

Located Auckland.

What is the input on your monitor?

It's a portable Glasses/monitor (Xreal Air) and requires USB-C input with DP-alt mode (according to my research).

Okay so you actually need PD in and USB-C to the monitor this is going to require a docking station as opposed to an actual hub.

 

I would go for the HP Thunderbolt G4 Dock (not cheap) 4J0A2AA

 

It will power your laptop AND give you a usb-c port which you can plug your monitor in

Thanks, but that's got only a single USB-C port according to photos on Amazon.

Thanks I already have a Caldigit TS3+ which should do the job at a desktop setup, but for remote setup I'll probably be looking at something like this:

 

Belkin Connect USB-C to 4-Port USB-C Hub | at Mighty Ape NZ
