The docking station can be used with other brands, but the Thunderbolt power connector cannot be replaced.
Theoretically yes, but I cannot guarantee it. HP only guarantees compatibility with HP devices.
Unfortunately, there is no information about the power supply on the HP site.
If you still have the old power supply, you may be able to find an equivalent one based on the information on it.
Yes, this works wonderfully ☺️
I would recommend using 2 display port cables.
No. The connector fits mechanically, but the protocol runs via Thunderbolt. That's why a Thunderbolt connection is absolutely necessary on the laptop. You need a USB-C docking station:
HP Docking Station USB-C Universal
Not compatible with Macbooks as the Thunderbolt connector on the dock is moulded with the power supply connector for HP laptops and cannot be plugged in.

No. Unfortunately, the plug is only made for HP notebooks. It's a moulded DC and USB-C plug in one that only fits certain HP devices.
Fortunately, I was able to return my device without any problems. Obviously the mistake is known. :-)
We have a mobile workstation / zbook on it. Running.
Only runs with a hack.
I use the HP Elite x2 (i7 processor) and the Thunderbolt docking station with two external 24" monitors and the tablet (3-monitor setup) without any problems.

About charging - you would probably need a separate charger for the laptop, as:
1. I would expect HPs connecting cable (which is basically a bundled Thunderbolt 3 connector with the power supply connector) to be incompatible (physically) with ASUS's connector.
2. Voltage-wise they are also not identical (19V on ASUS vs 19.5V on HP) - that's pretty close, but there is always a chance there is something more to it (i.e. I'm not an electrical engineer).
Apart from that look around in the comment section if others tried connecting the docking station with just a Thunderbolt connector (+ separate power supplies to the station and laptop) and if it worked for non-HP zbook models. I don't have any other Thunderbolt 3 compatible laptop so sadly I can't test, but it might be possible (unless HP put some proprietary stuff there, which I don't expect).
According to the manufacturer's information (also copied by digitec into the product description), it is even possible to operate two monitors with 4K simultaneously. So this should not be a problem for you.
No, Linux support for Thunderbolt 3 is already limited. Therefore the HP Thunderbolt 3 Docking is likely not to function properly under Linux.

The docking station connects via the Thunderbolt 3 port and does not normally require any additional drivers. Make sure that the port itself has the latest drivers/software and is not disabled.

I have the docking station, the MBP is unfortunately waiting. I will report back as soon as I can test it.
