ipad dock

Most iPad docks combine several of the same connections: video outputs (HDMI or DisplayPort), USB‑A and USB‑C ports, SD/microSD card readers, a 3.5mm audio jack or combo audio port, and—on many models—Gigabit Ethernet for wired networking.

Many docks advertise Ultra HD output—up to 4K at 60Hz on compatible source devices. Some mini or full docks offer single 4K@60Hz or even dual 4K outputs, while other mobile/compact docks may be limited to 4K@30Hz depending on the device and dock capabilities.

Several docks include a 3.5mm audio/mic jack or combo audio port and built‑in SD/microSD card readers; some models specify UHS‑I support for faster card access.
