VisionTek VT2000 USB-C Docking Station - Multi Display MST
The VisionTek VT2000 USB-C Docking Station is engineered for those who refuse to compromise on productivity. Designed for Windows, Mac, and Chrome OS laptops, this plug-and-play docking solution brings a clean, single-cable setup to desks of all shapes and sizes. With power passthrough, fast data transfer, and multi-display MST capability, the VT2000 transforms a quiet workstation into a dynamic, multi-monitor hub where you can work, play, and collaborate more efficiently than ever before.
- One-cable USB-C connection from your laptop to the VT2000 delivers a streamlined, clutter-free workspace. It eliminates the tangle of separate power adapters and multiple dongles, so you can focus on your tasks rather than cable management. The design emphasizes portability and reliability, making it ideal for students, remote workers, and professionals who move between locations.
- Drive up to three external displays via MST, enabling extended desktops, enhanced multitasking, and immersive presentations. This capability is perfect for professionals who keep multiple windows and apps open at once, designers who need large canvases, and traders who monitor several data streams in real time. When configured correctly, MST allows each monitor to present a distinct view while sharing the same source content.
- Power passthrough lets you charge your laptop while docked, ensuring your device remains powered during long sessions and important meetings. The VT2000 is built to support continuous workflow without the interruption of a drained battery, especially during video conferences, coding sprints, or data-intensive tasks where uptime matters.
- High-speed data transfer up to 5Gbps over the USB-C connection makes file transfers, backups, and syncing fast and seamless. This speed supports large media transfers, rapid document synchronization, and quick access to external storage without bottlenecks, helping keep your creative and collaborative processes moving smoothly.
- Plug-and-play compatibility across Windows, Mac, and Chrome OS means almost zero setup time. No driver installation is required in most cases; simply connect the VT2000 to your USB-C-equipped laptop, attach your displays and peripherals, and you’re ready to work. This broad compatibility ensures you can switch devices without worrying about driver conflicts or complex configurations.
