    When I bought my new laptop, I wasn't aware that it did not have hdmi or usb C ports. This little unit was perfect, solved all my problems.

    Easy connection, works perfectly, but I didn't realize the second monitor would display at a lower resolution. No complaints. Good value.

    Generic docking station that was a much better deal than the $300 one Dell sells and does the same thing. I was able to connect this to my Dell and I have access to all of my accessories.

    I tried a few universal docking stations already. They all have the same issue. Work great in the beginning and start burning out and glitching within a couple months. This unit is mostly working but would freeze. Disconnecting the dock from the laptop and reconnecting seems to wake it up and get it working again. It's pretty annoying but at least all the connections still work, unlike the last unit that had a burnt out Ethernet port within a couple of weeks.

      5 star rated device for adding monitors to work with, Ethernet connectivity and USB ports. The JCD381 supplies you with ports for getting the job done at home, or office - simply download, install the driver and off you go.
