Does and doesn’t get the job done
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Doesn’t come with a power cable, so you’ll have to visit the products site for their cable or hit up amazon for one that provides ample juice. It does allow me to hook up two monitors with hdmi to give me 3 screens. Though it’s unstable and I occasionally have to plug/ unplug from laptop to get screens displaying. Some collaboration tools lose audio while plugged in. Power pass through is not great and get the warning that charging will be slow, not sure how power is allocated with so little plugged in. This was suppose to allow easy drop in for my wife or I and not require peripheral shuffling/power ply shuffling. Having to still plug in laptop power defeated that objective. Official drivers did not seem improve any of the described behaviors. So it works, just not as expected by the description. Likely another universal docking station out there that would do a better job. If you’re in a pinch and just need something in a hurry it may work for you to get by.

Posted .Hi!
I'm so sorry to hear about this! We actually do sell a powered version at Best Buy that comes with the cable, but I know how frustrating it can be to need to return like you did for the power cable which we do sell separately as well. Please contact my customer service team and we can help get you up and running without the connectivity issues. Our information is found on the back of all of our product boxes and on our website.
Thanks,

Almost didn't buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I read many reviews complaining about this unit that I ALMOST didn't get it! But I am glad I did. This unit does everything that I have asked it to do. I am using the HDMI port for an external display and love the SD and micro SD card slots! Great bonus! The only complaint that I have is that the powered USB 3.1 port is not clearly labeled. As such, I cooked an external HD. Lost a few files that I wish I could get back, but, c'est la vie!

Acceptable
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The design could improve itself. It has only two HDMI ports and it could be necessary to have one extra. Sometimes the power supply gives me problems, my computer doesn't recognize this device, so I have to disconnect and connect it again.

No problems
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great. Lots of inputs while providing pass through power. It does not provided the same power of a dedicated power supple but you can also plug your dedicated power supply to your computer at the same time.

One of the most easiest docking stations
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased a dell lap top and a dell docking station and come to find out the docking station was not compatible with the laptop. The dell docking station was 350.00 and went into Best Buy and visited their geek squad who help me find a compatible docking station at was only 99.00 dollars which not only saved me money but was much more slim and less bulky of a docking station.

Good docking station, watch out for ventilation
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Docking station works! Although I wasn’t sure if my hdmi to display port cord was working for not. But it might have been a bad cord. You have to install the driver before plugging it in. The only downside is that if your laptop vents are underneath towards the back the docking station will cover it. I have to balance my laptop on the docking station to have proper ventilation.

It serves all my needs
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was a little skeptical about buying this big docking station but i needed something that had many usb ports. Since i am a teacher. I have many different things connected at the same time so this docking port came in handy. The reason i am giving it 4 stars is because the first time i tried to connect it, it didn't work so i took it in so the geek squad could help me out. They got it to connect somehow it works great now.

Excellent...
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is just what I was looking for. I wanted a all in one dock including to be able to charge my laptop. Having 2 monitors attached, Speaker plug in, USB doggles and a power cord. Now all the wires are hidden and organized. Had to buy external power supply as the Dell has a different end on the cord that doesn't match up to charge.

Basically what I needed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a docking station for my new laptop because I prefer to use a stand alone key board and mouse on a daily basis with a bigger screen, this works perfectly for all but the screen. This particular model will allow a second screen but I have to keep the lap top open to use it. So I use an external keyboard and mouse and the laptop screen. I'm also able to physically connect tot he internet and a printer when the WiFi is slow

Posted .For different capabilities all in one, the JCD543 is a good choice; when it comes to working with the laptop lid closed, we recommend contacting the support team on the device packaging in order to troubleshoot this and be able to close the lid and still use the computer if you wish to use it in that manner.
Sincerely,

Need to download a driver.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I original purchased this docking station b/c all the connections are in the back of the unit and it had a long usb-c cable. But, I needed to install a driver to make it work. I am not able to install drivers on my work computer, so I had to return it.

Easy Peasy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I didn't understand how this type of docking station would work, I know duh right, but it is so easy. It gives me all the ports I need. You just have to plug into your laptop and then start adding usb ports or ethernet, and a couple I don't use. Since the Yoga I got didn't have enough ports for me this docking station was a no-brainer for me.

Very nice unit
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great with my Dell XPS. I hate the fact laptops are having less and less ports. This answers that problem well. Maximizes desk space and cooling with the angled profile to sit under the laptop.

Needs beta drivers for M1 laptops
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Using with new M1 Apple Laptop. You must find the experimental drivers on the company’s website. It does work but it’s a bit buggy- you have to unplug/plug it in if computer goes to sleep or is restarted. I hope with a newer driver release it will work better. Honestly my expectation at this point is for things to be plug and play and this is not.

Posted .The HDMI, VGA and Mic requires drivers. The rest of the other ports are PnP. We have beta drivers that support display and/or Ethernet functionality to M1 Mac computers. We will continue testing to provide drivers for M1 Mac computers on an ongoing basis. Thank you.
