Henge Docks debuted a suite of new products at this week’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, including Horizontal and Vertical Docks for the new MacBook Pro, as well as the introduction of an all-new product line with the first-ever Tethered Dock.
In addition to launching new products, Henge Docks announced a partnership with Apple as part of Apple’s Authorized Business Solution Provider (ABSP) program. Henge Docks customers can now purchase Apple MacBooks and accessories bundled with their docking stations. Bundles will range from a Clique purchased with Apple Magic Trackpad 2 and Apple Magic Keyboard, to a new MacBook Pro paired with a Horizontal Docking Station. Purchasing these value-add bundles can save the customer up to $150 on their new MacBook and dock, says Matthew Vroom, Henge Docks CEO.
The Tethered Docking Station (pictured above) is designed to act as a natural extension of your MacBook, matching the aesthetic and adding functionality. Every detail was designed specifically with the new MacBook Pro in mind, according to Vroom. It features an 85 watt power supply and expansion ports including three USB 3 ports, two Mini DisplayPorts, SD card reader, Gigabit Ethernet, audio port and USB-C or Thunderbolt 3.
The Space Gray, solid metal chassis complements the aesthetic of the MacBook and an ergonomic, angled design allows you to rest the MacBook directly on the dock. Paired with Vertical Dock, the two unite to create a space-saving setup and allow for full connectivity to your devices. Tethered Dock will be available in two models, for USB-C or Thunderbolt technology. Shipping in March, it will retail for US$199.
