Universal enterprise docking

The Lenovo ThinkPad Hybrid USB-C with USB-A Dock 40AF0135EU expands connectivity for most laptops, new or old, through a single USB-C link. It adds three high-speed USB 3.1 ports and supports up to dual UHD 4K external displays. Enterprise manageability features include PXE boot and MAC address pass-through. The included USB-C to USB-A adapter extends compatibility to devices without USB-C.

Shared-desk and mixed-fleet users

This dock suits enterprises that run shared desks or a mix of USB-C and USB-A laptops, because the supplied adapter lets one dock serve both connector types. Rapid charging is available on ThinkPad notebooks. Buyers who require more than three USB ports or additional video outputs should consider other solutions. The gray enclosure weighs 3.0400 kg.

Three USB 3.1 ports

The single specification that decides fit is the provision of exactly three high-speed USB 3.1 ports for peripheral connection. If the workflow demands four or more simultaneous USB devices, this model will not meet that need. Otherwise the port count, dual 4K video support, and cross-connector adapter cover typical enterprise docking scenarios.

Questions about this item

What laptop ports are required to connect the 40AF0135EU dock?

The dock connects through a USB-C port on the laptop, and the box includes a USB-C to USB-A adaptor for systems that only have USB-A ports.

Which step do users often miss when setting up the 40AF0135EU dock for the first time?

Many people forget to install the Lenovo driver package before plugging the dock in, so PXE boot and MAC address pass-through remain inactive.

When will the USB-C to USB-A adaptor supplied with the 40AF0135EU dock need replacement?

Replace the adaptor if the USB-A connector becomes loose, the cable frays near the plug, or connected devices start disconnecting intermittently.
