DisplayLink, a specialist provider of USB graphics and Universal hot desking technology, markets the HP Inc USB-C/A Universal Dock G2 docking station. Powered by DisplayLink’s award-winning graphics technology, the new docking station supports USB-A, USB-CTM and ThunderboltTM – enabled notebooks from HP, Apple, Dell, Lenovo, and other leading brands, and supports all major operating systems.
The HP USB-C/A Universal Dock G2 offers support for both new USB-C notebooks and the installed base of platforms equipped with USB-A connectors. Triple 4K display connectivity comes via a hybrid integration of the DisplayLink DL-6950 chipset for dual 4Kp60 and DP-Alt-Mode (for equipped Type-C notebooks) offering a third 4K display.
“With the expansion of flexible work spaces across SME and Enterprise businesses globally, we’ve seen a huge interest in DisplayLink enabled docking solutions that can offer real flexibility regardless of the operating system and host USB connector type,” said John Cummins, Senior Vice President Sales and Marketing at DisplayLink. “IT managers are eager to simplify deployments, while minimizing end user confusion and interoperability issues.”
In a recent survey1 of IT managers and decision makers in SMEs and large corporations who had deployed DisplayLink docks, 94% of respondents said they were either “likely” or “extremely likely” to purchase DisplayLink solutions again.
