The Redesigned Dual Display Dock for Mac
Plugable Marketing | August 13, 2024
Introducing the newly redesigned UD-6950PDH docking station. Driven by customer feedback and technological advancements, this reimagined version now boasts a sleek space gray aluminum chassis designed for seamless productivity with Apple products.
Unlike many docks on the market, the UD-6950PDH delivers two extra displays on every Mac, regardless of whether it has a Max, Pro, or base Apple M1, M2, M3, and upcoming M4 processor – all with just a single DisplayLink driver install.
The upgraded version retains its core features—supporting dual 4K monitors at 60Hz through either DisplayPort or HDMI and fast 100W charging, while including additional functionalities such as a front-facing USB-C port for 5Gbps data transfer and device charging, a combined 3.5mm audio port, and a power button lets you turn off the dock when not in use.
DisplayLink for Mac
The UD-6950PDH supports dual 4K displays at 60Hz via DisplayLink technology to ensure compatibility with Mac devices, including M1, M2, M3, and the upcoming M4 Apple Silicon MacBooks with downloaded DisplayLink driver. The ability to connect up to two extended 4K monitors at once—even on Macs that would otherwise only support one—allows for enhanced productivity and multitasking.
Blending with Apple and More
The new UD-6950PDH docking station features a premium aluminum alloy chassis that aligns with Apple’s aesthetic for a sleek, durable, modern look that complements MacBooks and other Apple devices.
Enhanced connectivity is another key feature of the UD-6950PDH. It includes front-facing USB-C and USB-A ports capable of 5Gbps data transfer and charging, along with three USB 3.0 data ports for peripherals. This combination of ports provides a versatile solution for new and older peripherals, making it easier to connect a wide range of devices.
TRRS Port for Better Audio
The audio capabilities of the UD-6950PDH have been significantly improved with the inclusion of a 4-position TRRS port. This replaces the separate speaker and mic inputs found in the original version, streamlining audio connections and providing a more user-friendly experience when using headsets.
Power Button
For added convenience, the UD-6950PDH now features a power button for quick and easy powering of the docking station. Additionally, the power button enables power-saving when the docking station is not in use, helping to reduce energy consumption and extend the lifespan of devices.
14 Ports to Choose From
The UD-6950PDH offers a comprehensive 14-port selection. This includes 2 HDMI and 2 DisplayPort outputs, allowing for flexible display configurations. The docking station also includes one fast charging USB-C port, one fast charging USB port, and USB 3.0 ports, a Gigabit Ethernet port, Micro SD and an SD card reader, ensuring you have all the necessary connections for your peripherals and networking needs. This extensive port selection makes the UD-6950PDH a versatile hub for all your devices.
