Horizontal Docking Station f/ 11" MacBook Air
Engineered from the ground up to match Apple’s world-class design aesthetic, the Horizontal Dock features a solid metal chassis and compact footprint. A high precision, four-point positioning system effortlessly aligns the computer during docking, for a smooth switch to a desktop workstation.
With the touch of a button, the electronic docking and undocking process takes under two seconds. The Horizontal Dock for the MacBook Pro with Retina Display can connect three external displays, six USB 3.0 peripherals, two audio devices, an Ethernet connection, an SD Card, a FireWire 800 device and power.
The Horizontal Dock’s dual audio ports enable users to switch between multiple audio input and output devices directly from OS X. No more swapping plugs to change between headphones and external speakers.
Henge Docks’ expansion software enables users to setup multiple workspace profiles for desktop and portable computing. The customizable workspace profiles automatically keep windows in place and hardware preferences saved, whether docked or on-the-go.
A Kensington Security Slot on the rear of the Horizontal Docking Station not only safeguards the dock, but also adds a layer of physical security to the computer, previously unavailable to the users of the newest MacBook models. After installing a Kensington Lock, the MacBook can be locked in place with a password. Until the lock is removed or the correct password is entered, the undock function is locked out, securing the MacBook.
