Many Ultrabooks and MacBooks sacrifice ports for portability. With the USB 3.0 Universal Docking Station, you'll have access to ports that may not be readily available on your Ultrabook or MacBook, such as the Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 LAN jack or the DVI-I port. You also have access to more USB ports so you can connect to more peripherals and accessories. Also, the USB 3.0 Universal Docking Station is both Mac and Windows compatible.
