Since KCI produces notebook PCs, it maybe valuable or essential for the notebook to have more resources without a spaghetti mess of wires. KCI will provide 2 types of docking stations. The first one is a closed docking station, and the second one is open docking station. Both docking stations will have an RJ45-1GBPS port for connecting to the LAN, and there will be a USB-C hub. Both of these stations can eliminate the need for a desktop computer which KCI does not produce for the simple fact that notebook PCs are more popular, and have the opportunity to acquire a larger market.
The first docking station will be a closed docking station. There will be 2 models in mind one for the 14″ model, and the second is for the 16″ model. It is important that the owner selects the correct docking station as a different system will not plug in. The closed docking station will have a display port in the back for a monitor. There will also be 8 USB-C ports, and 1 RJ-45 port. The front will have 2 USB-C ports, and an SD card reader. The owner will close the lid, and slide their system into the docking slot. Pushing in fully will connect the left rear USB-C port to the station, and immediately connects to the resources connected to the docking station including a keyboard, mouse, and monitor. Also, if there is a nearby RJ45 port, then the docking station should plug into that port for faster speeds.
The second docking station will be similar to the closed one where the owner will have to buy the correct docking station for their notebook. The station will raise in the back therefore putting the keyboard at an optimal angle for typing. The right side will have a USB-C port which will give the owner 8 USB-C ports, and an RJ45-1GBPS port. The owner will use the included keyboard monitor, and SD card reader that will be available to the owner. The owner while it could work should consider an external mouse that would plug directly into the open docking station.
