Baseus 11-in-1 docking station offers compact, plug-and-play port expansion

The Baseus 11-in-1 docking station delivers a broad set of ports in a small form factor and works plug-and-play across Linux, macOS, Windows and Android. Some users may balk at the price, but for anyone desperate for more ports it provides enough expansion to be worth the cost.

On an iMac used for video editing it freed up connections for multiple external drives and card readers. The dock reads CFAST and SD cards at the advertised speeds, and its compact footprint lets it sit behind a desktop where it is easy to reach but out of the way.

It has proven useful with a MacBook Pro, a desktop and a Pixel 9 Pro for adding USB ports, driving extra monitors, routing audio through the 3.5mm jack and even running a USB mouse from a phone. Setup is simple: plug the integrated USB-C cable into the host device and start connecting peripherals.
