Surface Connect Docking Station

This Microsoft 1661 docking station uses the proprietary Surface Connect port to charge compatible devices and link them to external monitors, keyboards and mice. It turns a portable Surface into a desktop workstation in a single connection. Weighing 20.0000 units, the unit is built for permanent desk placement.

Desk-based Surface users only

Professionals who keep a Surface Pro 3, Pro 4 or Surface Book at a fixed desk gain instant access to peripherals and external displays without unplugging multiple cables. Mobile workers who need a compact travel dock or users with USB-C-only devices cannot use this station because it relies solely on the Surface Connect interface.

Surface Connect proprietary connector

The single specification that determines compatibility is the Surface Connect port on the host device. Only Surface models equipped with this exact connector — specifically the Surface Pro 3, Pro 4 and Surface Book — can dock and charge through this unit.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does the 1661 docking station produce when left running all day?

The 1661 has no internal fan and draws power only through the Surface Connect cable, so it runs silently and stays cool during continuous use.

Which cable or port must my Surface already have for the 1661 to work?

Your Surface must include a Surface Connect port; the 1661 plugs directly into that port to deliver power and peripheral connections.

Will the 1661 docking station work with my Surface Pro 3 or Surface Book?

Yes, the 1661 is compatible with Surface Pro 3, Surface Pro 4 and Surface Book, providing charging and external display support for those models.
