Docking Solutions

Docks allow users to connect a variety of external peripherals simply by attaching their ThinkPad to the dock. Lenovo sells three types of docks for current ThinkPads, the ThinkPad Port Replicator II, ThinkPad Mini-Dock, and ThinkPad Dock II. Additionally, Lenovo's line of ultralight notebooks, the X-series, have a on-the-go dock called the UltraBase. Lenovo's docks are known to be some of the most flexible and useful docks available among all notebook manufacturers.
