A USB Type-C docking station expands the connectivity options of a laptop or a device with a USB Type-C port. Typically, it provides multiple ports such as USB-A, HDMI, or DisplayPort for video output, Ethernet, an audio jack, and sometimes even card readers. It allows you to connect peripherals like monitors, keyboards, mice, printers, and external storage devices to your laptop through a single USB Type-C connection. It is a versatile solution for users who need to connect multiple devices simultaneously.
