English term or phrase: docking station
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 sentence(s):
  • 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

dokovacia stanica


Definition from hardware.sk:
Pravá dokovacia stanica má narozdiel od replikátora minimálne jednu podstatnú výhodu. Keďže sa prepojenie uskutočňuje cez špeciálny konektor, všetky porty a a rozhrania nie sú iba obyčajným USB rozšírením notebooku, ale jeho „skutočnou" výbavou. Ďalším veľkým plusom je aj prítomnosť napájania, takže nemusíte so sebou z domu do práce nosiť ani napájací adaptér. Dokovacia stanica zabezpečuje totiž aj nabíjanie a samotné napájanie notebooku.

Example sentence(s):
  • Dokovacia stanica HP Notebook QuickDock poskytuje jednotné pripojenie pre jednoduchú a rýchlu inštaláciu. Jedná sa o ľahké a mobilné riešenie, ktoré poskytuje rad možností výstupu zvuku i videa a tiež možnosť pohodlného dobíjanie batérie v notebooku. - HP obchod.sk
