"As today's world places demands upon consumers and business professionals to become increasingly mobile, laptop manufacturers are being pushed to exponentially increase the computing power of laptops while simultaneously making them lighter and more compact," explains David Lin, product manager at IOGEAR. "The obvious downside of this trend is that as devices get more powerful and more compact, the user experience begins to suffer. Our new USB-C Docking Station enables users to enjoy the freedom and versatility provided by laptop computers, while enabling them to restore the full desktop experience at their home or office by literally turning the laptop into a work station with the simple connection of a single USB cable."
