For your reference, DisplayLink technology is a combination of hardware and software. If the product you are using does not have DisplayLink hardware inside of it, then the DisplayLink software will not function.
The HP G5 Docking station you are using does NOT have DisplayLink technology inside of it. As a result, the DisplayLink software will not help you.
The HP G5 has what is known as a DisplayPort Multi-Stream Transport Hub (aka DP MST) inside of it. Macs do NOT support DP MST, which is why your displays are mirrored. There is no workaround for this behavior.
For your reference, DisplayLink maintains a list of products that use DisplayLink technology here -->
