The new Plugable UD-3900C is a reasonably priced docking station, suitable for PC and Mac wheel desks. ... [] All workers need to do is connect their laptops with a cable to access all the connections they need.

One of the certain things in life is that laptops will never have enough ports and sockets to connect peripherals such as mice, keyboards, storage, and displays. To solve this problem, Plugable has made some excellent docking stations that allow laptop users to extend the connectivity of their machines.

Plugable’s newest docking station is UD-3900C, which is designed for remote office and mixed workers and is equipped with all the connections needed to increase the number of USB ports, HDMI output, and the number of Gigabit Ethernet and audio connections.

Plugable’s cordial founder and CEO Bernie Thompson said: “The era of traditional office environments is over. Smart, visionary companies are adapting to open office concepts, with systems that allow employees to come and go from anywhere and Work efficiently. Plugable’s UD-3900C docking station is specially designed for various work scenarios. Whether at home or in the workplace, it has all the ports needed to support an efficient workplace through simple setup and configuration." 

Plugable’s UD-3900C docking station has a variety of connections, including two HDMI ... [] ports that support resolutions up to 1,920 × 1,080, one Gigabit Ethernet port for wired connection, and two USB 3.0 Type-A Ports, four USB 2.0 Type-A ports, 1 audio input jack and 1 audio output jack.

Many companies are now shrinking office space because the pandemic has changed the way we work. Some employers are introducing part-time office policies, which means more effective use of open office concepts, including rotating desks and hotels. Companies need to prioritize productivity and make hot desks easier to use and more uniform.

Mobile office is a system that uses an unassigned desk equipped with the same monitor, keyboard, mouse, and docking station to connect to the office network. With this work system, workers will show up in the office and find a table where they can plug in their laptops and start working. The hotel is like a temporary desk, but involves a reservation system, and employees must book their favorite workspace in advance.

Usually, when mixed employees arrive at the office, they need to manually plug peripheral devices, including monitors, mice, headsets, etc., into their laptops. Each table has a docking station like UD-3900C, all peripherals and displays can be permanently connected to the station and built-in tools (such as display layout configuration) provide further customization. The UD-3900C comes with a hybrid 2-in-1 cable, and most USB-A or USB-C laptops can be plugged directly into this cable so that they can start working immediately.

The convenient pluggable UD-3900C docking station adopts a tower design, which takes up almost no desktop space.

UD-3900C has features designed for IT administrators and office managers who want to create the most efficient working space for their employees. It is a single-plug solution with two HDMI ports supporting resolutions up to 1,920 × 1,080, one Gigabit Ethernet port for wired connection, two USB 3.0 Type-A ports, four USB 2.0 Type-A ports, one audio input jack and one audio output jack. The included hybrid 2-in-1 USB-A and USB-C cable provides a simple single cable for connecting to a laptop. 

UD-3900C supports Windows and USB-C connections right out of the box. Mac users can also get full functionality by installing a driver that includes dual-monitor support for Apple M1 Mac. 

Pricing and Availability: The Plugable UD-3900C docking station can be purchased from Amazon for US$119 (with a US$15 startup voucher). Walmart, Newegg, Ingram, Synnex and Insight also provide docking stations.
