Use Cases & Applications
Multi-Monitor Workstations Connect up to three displays simultaneously using DisplayPort, HDMI, and VGA outputs. This Vention 12-in-1 Docking Station enables expansive multi-screen setups for financial analysts, software developers, and data professionals who rely on screen real estate. However, simultaneous multi-display support and maximum resolution depend on the host device’s USB-C controller capabilities.
Design & Video Production DisplayPort delivers superior bandwidth for color-accurate monitors and high-refresh-rate displays. Import source media from SD and TF cards, connect reference monitors via DP, and transfer completed projects through USB 3.0 or USB-C Gen 1 at up to 5 Gbps. Consequently, the entire production pipeline stays connected through a single hub.
IT Support & Field Work IT professionals encounter every display type imaginable — DP monitors in server rooms, HDMI screens at desks, VGA projectors in older facilities. The triple video output eliminates guesswork. Additionally, Gigabit Ethernet provides reliable wired access for network diagnostics and configuration tasks.
Presentations Across Any Environment Walk into any meeting room, classroom, or auditorium with confidence. Whether the display uses DisplayPort, HDMI, or VGA, this docking station connects instantly. The 3.5mm TRRS jack supports a headset for calls or external speakers for larger audiences.
Remote & Hybrid Workspace Gigabit Ethernet ensures stable video conferencing without Wi-Fi dropouts. Plug in a keyboard, mouse, headset, and external monitor to create a full desktop environment. PD passthrough charging means you never sacrifice power for connectivity. For instance, arriving at your desk requires just one USB-C connection to restore your entire setup.
