  The USB-C standard is now ubiquitous, from mobile devices to laptops and docking stations, and its powerful features and diverse characteristics make it an emerging data transfer and charging standard. This article will introduce four powerful features of USB-C to show how it can take your connectivity to another level.
  1. Shared switch: Improve work flexibility
  The power of USB-C lies in its support for high-speed data transmission and high-power charging. For example, the ATEN 2-port USB-C shared switch is able to support up to 10 Gbps transmission speed and provide 85W power supply. This means you can use it to connect two computers, share peripherals with fast transmission speeds, and charge a laptop and device at the same time. USB-C is also backward compatible with USB 3.0 and 2.0, with greater versatility, and its reversible design makes insertion more convenient.
  2. KVM switch: Optimize workflow
  Using a USB-C-enabled KVM switch, such as the 2-port USB-C Gen 1 dock switch, can save desktop space and improve work efficiency. You can use your USB-C smartphone, iPad Pro, laptop, and more with a set of keyboards, monitors, and mice. In addition, hy-brid KVMP switches, such as the 3-Port USB-C DisplayPort Hy-brid KVMP Switch, can provide up to 4K DCI image quality and HD audio quality, and support SuperSpeed 5Gbps data access, allowing you to quickly switch between multiple computers and improve work efficiency.

  3. Docking Station: Enhance Office Space Functionality
  Using a USB-C docking station can expand the functionality of your laptop. For example, the Purplelec USB-C Multiport Dock can connect up to 13 devices, including Ethernet, SD cards, mobile phones, flash drives, two HDMI displays, and more. In addition, USB-C also supports Thunderbolt 3, which has even more impressive specifications and can drive two 4K displays at 60 Hz or one 4K display at 120 Hz. Even mini docks, such as the Purplelec USB-C Multiport Mini Dock, can be powerful in a small form factor, supporting VGA or HDMI displays and USB Type A devices.

  4. Games: Enhance entertainment experience
  USB-C is also suitable for gaming. The right USB-C mini dock, such as the USB-C 4K Ultra Mini Dock, allows you to connect game consoles and other USB-C devices and run them at up to 4K@30Hz on 4K TVs or ultra-wide and gaming monitors. In addition, USB-C also supports plug-and-play screen expansion, allowing you to connect your laptop to a larger display or projector for a more stunning gaming experience.

  One cable controls everything
  The core of why USB-C can become a tool to improve work efficiency is that it can do everything with just one cable. Whether it is expanding the use of peripherals or controlling multiple computers with a single keyboard, display, and mouse, USB-C can do everything with one cable, reducing clutter and improving work efficiency.
