Key Features
Single‑cable USB‑C connectivity for video, data, network and laptop charging, simplifying the desktop experience.
Multi‑monitor support (exact number and resolution depend on host GPU and dock specs) to power dual or ultrawide displays for better multitasking.
Integrated power delivery so compatible laptops can charge while docked—reducing the need for a separate power brick on the desk.
Multiple USB-A and USB-C ports for connecting keyboards, mice, webcams, headsets and external drives.
Built‑in wired Ethernet for secure, low‑latency network access and more stable performance than Wi‑Fi alone.
Compact, professional industrial design that suits modern corporate offices, shared workspaces and home desks.
Benefits
