The Dell Performance Dock WD19DCS is a high-power USB-C docking station that uses a unique dual-cable design — two integrated USB-C cables connect simultaneously to the laptop to deliver an unprecedented 210W of total power delivery. This extra headroom makes it ideal for power-hungry mobile workstations that need both high wattage charging and full-bandwidth data transfer. It supports up to three 4K displays via its two DisplayPort 1.4 ports and one HDMI 2.0 port, with the multifunction USB-C port adding a fourth video option. Note there is no audio jack on this dock — audio must route through the laptop.
Dell’s high-power dual-USB-C workstation dock with 210W PD, two DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.0, USB-C MFDP, and Gigabit Ethernet. No audio jack.
