Docking station allows you to easily connect two laptops to multiple monitors as well as other usb peripherals. Great for a dual monitor setup. Works great for display and keyboard/mouse.
A headset jack, and gigabit ethernet are also included. It has two usb ports (the two proprietary hosting cables are included). It has a rj45 port for ethernet.
