Modern laptops -- and even many desktop systems -- come with a limited selection of ports. This is where a dock comes in handy, and the Plugable UD-CA1A USB-C dock is an affordable solution to boost your work from home productivity.
Using just a single cable, the UD-CA1A USB-C dock can add an external HDMI display, provide up to 60W of power to charge devices, add a Gigabit Ethernet port, audio input/output, and five USB ports to connect your peripherals.
All through a single USB-C cable.

Tech specs:
The UD-CA1A supports USB 3.1's Alternate Modes and Power Delivery modes. Alternate Modes allow certain non-USB data and protocols (such as native video) to be sent over a USB-C cable, while Power Delivery enables you to power and charge a supported system without the need for a traditional proprietary OEM charger. To find out more about what different systems support, check out Plugable's compatibility list.
In the box, you will find the UD-CA1A docking station complete with an optional stand, 1-meter USB-C to USB-C eMarker cable, 80W (20V, 4A) power adapter (100V-240V) with a US power plug, and quick start guide.
Available on Amazon for $99.
