Targus Showcases Award-Winning Docking Solutions at CES 2020

Revolutionary IoT-enabled and world’s first quad 4K docking solutions to optimize workspaces

 CES, Las Vegas, NV – Jan. 3, 2020 – Targus, the industry leader that introduced the first universal dual-video docking station, today announces its technology solutions to be on display at CES 2020. The line-up includes two award-winning revolutionary products – MiraLogic™ Workspace Intelligence System, a hardware and software solution that allows companies to better optimize and utilize their workspace, and DOCK570USZ its quad 4K docking station. Both of these products will be showcased during the show starting with CES Unveiled on Sunday, January 5 and continuing at its booth (LVCC, South Hall, Booth #31147).

MiraLogic Workspace Intelligence System is an IoT-connected platform that blends enterprise-grade hardware (Smart USB-C Dock, Smart Power Strip, Smart Sensor, and Desktop Power Strip) with cloud-based software to deliver meaningful insights into the workspace. With MiraLogic, companies can better understand how workspaces are being utilized, allowing organizations to make better decisions of the space needed for an effective workforce. The solution offers IT managers the ability to understand and control overall energy consumption by seeing how much power is being used at a desk, department or floor level, allowing for improvements to the overall energy efficiency of the office. MiraLogic also allows for remote access to the workspace for diagnostics offering IT teams a more efficient role in solving technical solutions across the organization.

“MiraLogic represents a huge step in making our workplaces more intelligent,” said Ron DeCamp, vice president of global product management and development, Targus. “With MiraLogic, businesses can finally have a clear view into how their workspaces are being utilized. This will allow them to make more informed operational decisions about how much space is actually required and cut back on unnecessary energy consumption. Our solution will also save IT teams time, money, and lost productivity by decreasing the time spent on support through remote control and management of the workspace.”

Also on display at CES will be DOCK570USZ. Aimed at large enterprises, call centers, and IT departments, the universal dock connects virtually any laptop to up to four 4K monitors via (4) HDMI or DisplayPort video out ports, while also supplying 100W power delivery to its connected laptop or host. Outfitted with Dual DisplayLink® DL-6910 chip technology, the dock supports four 4K displays. The docking station includes additional ports to connect essential USB 3.0 peripherals and to an Ethernet network. Wide compatibility with virtually any laptop ensures easy deployment and use with Thunderbolt 3™, Display Port Alt-Mode, and USB 3.0, 3.1 and Type-C devices.
