Notebook Computers & Chromebooks Are Light & Thin & Really Short On Inputs!
I have WiFi in my Gizneyland studio, but it doesn't extend to my apartment next door. I ran a cable between the two apartments, which means I only have a hard-wired connection in my living space. So when I took my Acer Chromebook there, I remembered it's setup for WiFi only. That's where the OWC USB-C Travel Dockcame in handy. By plugging it into my Chromebook I would be adding an Ethernet port and more. The Dock E has a 100 watt power pass through, so you plug it into your USB-C powered notebook or Chromebook and then you'll added six ports, one of which is the USB-C power pass through. You don't even need to remember to bring a cable because one is built into the bottom of the unit. The six ports are: (2) USB 3 Type-A, 4K HDMI 2.0, SD card reader, Gigabit Ethernet, and 100 watt USB-C power pass through. So via its integrated USB-C connecting cable, this mini Travel Dock E lets you transforms one USB-C input into a decent mobile office with the ability to connect, charge, display, and import with USB-C equipped computers, tablets, and phones. MSRP: $64.99, but it's selling for $10 less than that on Amazon and most other retailers.

But they often sell for the same price, so check the details carefully to get the newest model, which is called model E on the company website.)
