A desk dock is a peripheral device designed to expand the connectivity and functionality of laptops, tablets, or smartphones when placed on a desk. It typically offers multiple ports such as USB, HDMI, Ethernet, and charging capabilities, enabling users to quickly connect their devices to monitors, keyboards, networks, and other accessories without repeated plug-ins. Desk docks are primarily targeted at professionals, remote workers, and students who require efficient, organized, and versatile workstation setups.
