“For people constantly on-the go, the HIS Multi-View USB Portable Docking station comes to help by providing an extra HDMI port, one VGA port but also one Ethernet gigabit port, all in a single adapter; potential customers will say that by plugging this device we will lose one available USB 3.0 port, but HIS had this in mind and has also provided one extra USB 3.0 to complement the lost one.
HIS and other manufacturers were offering these types on interfaces via USB in the past, but each and every one needed an extra USB port, while the HIS Multi-View USB Portable dock has all-in-one.”
