A connection checklist for the iDock B12. Start with what you own.

Required if missing

Your connections

A laptop connects over USB-C and a desktop connects through its own video outputs, sharing two screens. Include the desktop USB upstream link for keyboard and mouse sharing. The laptop port must support the video output required by this model; a USB-C connector alone is not enough.
