Overview
Docking a ThinkPad through a dedicated side connector gives a driver-free link to USB accessories and displays. A mirrored power button and mechanical unlock make it quick to release, and an optional master key lock can secure it.
The reason to buy is enterprise manageability and port count: remote boot, wake on LAN and MAC pass-through help IT teams, while many USB ports serve a busy desk. The limit is compatibility, which is restricted to listed ThinkPad models.
Who it's for
Business users and IT teams with the listed ThinkPad A, L, P, T and X series models will use the manageability features and multi-display support. Owners of other laptops, or ThinkPads with different connectors, should choose another dock.
Pros and cons
- Dedicated side connector for ThinkPads
- Supports up to three displays
- Many USB ports
- IT manageability features
- ThinkPad models only
- Model list differs between fields
- Optional lock sold separately
- Power rating field has no unit
Performance notes
Video and data travel over the dedicated connector, so no extra drivers are needed, and the dock charges the laptop and small devices. The four faster USB ports handle storage and accessories at the listed data rate. Display output depends on the laptop graphics.
