English term

docking station

GBK English to Swedish Tech/Engineering Computers: Hardware
Definition from MicroLaw:
A platform in which you can install a portable computer. The docking station usually has slots for expansion cards, bays for storage devices, and connectors for peripherals such as monitors and printers. When a notebook (another term for laptop) system is installed in a docking station it essentially becomes a desktop system.
Example sentences:
This product is also the first docking station to allow users to connect through a single USB connection. (Targus)
We'd love to say that many have tried, but really, the bona fide docking station market dried up years ago in every sector save for enterprise, and while a few companies have served up "universal" alternatives, none of them were particularly well-designed. (Engadget)
Some models of docking stations are meant to stay at your home office and can be used with your laptop as a desktop replacement system. (About.com)
