Like a mini-dock

Moving on to the 2018 Macbook Air, I knew I was going to need something to expand the ports. I work in an environment where I need to connect external monitors, connect to the network via cables, plug in USB sticks and of course charge and power my laptop. I checked many other options and none of them worked for me. Either there was no network connection, or there were bad reviews, or the price was too high. So I decided to take a chance as it was a decent price. So far I've been very happy with it. The modular structure is great. This allows me to set it up the way I need it for work at my desk, but when I'm on the go I can make it more compact. The concentrator makes a high-quality impression. The only place I could see a potential durability issue was in the modular parts themselves and the network module in particular. Just because it has a moving part that allows it to fit a standard network interface. Besides, it's a great feeling. I've checked out the docking stations and even the cheapest ones cost more than double what I paid for them without giving me a bit more. This allows me to connect my Macbook to the network etc by just plugging in one device, just like any docking station. So what's the point of spending twice. Not to mention I get as many, if not more, ports and options than I want. This item is incredibly versatile. Overall very happy with this purchase and plan to buy more for my office.
