Description

A button that blanks the screen at once

Pressing the Off-Screen button switches the display off immediately, which is handy in a co-working space when you step away from the desk and do not want others to see your screen. The HDMI output runs over DisplayPort Alt Mode, so the USB-C port on your laptop must support video output. 4K at 60 Hz means smooth motion even on a large monitor.

The manufacturer designed the Spade Dock for people who work in co-working spaces or are often on the move. At 0.16 kg with a short attached cable, it is a dock you can keep in your bag at all times: one monitor, a charger and three USB accessories through a single plug.
