Overview
Shared office desks get one USB-C connection that links a notebook to monitors, accessories and a wired network while charging it. The small dock works with HP and non-HP notebooks that have USB-C or Thunderbolt ports, which suits a mixed fleet.
Buy it for the one cable desk: displays, peripherals, network and charging all arrive through a single plug, and IT gets remote management tools on top. Only a single HDMI port is listed, so check how the other displays connect before planning a multi monitor setup.
Who it's for
An IT team outfitting hot desks for a mixed fleet of notebooks gets central control and one plug per seat. A notebook without USB-C, or a power hungry workstation that needs a published charging rating, calls for a different dock.
Pros and cons
- One cable for displays, network and charging
- Works with non-HP USB-C notebooks
- Supports up to three displays
- Small square footprint
- Charging wattage to the notebook not stated
- Only one HDMI port listed
- Fleet tools focus on HP commercial notebooks
- Warranty described only as limited
Performance notes
Everything travels over one USB-C link, so display support and charging depend on the notebook's USB-C or Thunderbolt port. Network features such as Wake on LAN and MAC address pass-through work in all power states, which lets IT reach notebooks that are asleep or off.
