The Microsoft Surface Dock 1661 connects to your Surface Pro 3 or Surface Pro 4 via the proprietary Surface connector and instantly expands it with four USB 3.0 ports, dual Mini DisplayPort outputs, Gigabit Ethernet, and dedicated audio - all in a compact matte black chassis. No drivers required. Backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty with free standard AU shipping.
- Dual Monitor Support: Two Mini DisplayPort outputs let you connect two external displays simultaneously for an expanded workspace.
- 4 × USB 3.0 Ports: Fast data transfers from external drives, printers, and peripherals - two on the front for easy access.
- Gigabit Ethernet: Wired network connection for reliable internet without relying on Wi-Fi.
- Dedicated Audio Output: 3.5mm jack for headphones, speakers, or a conference call headset.
- Plug-and-Play: No drivers or software installation - connect and use immediately.
- Compact & Professional: Matte black finish, 76 × 184 × 54 mm footprint fits neatly on any desk.
The Surface Dock 1661 is the cleanest way to transition your Surface Pro between portable and desktop use. At the desk, a single cable click connects all your peripherals at once - dual monitors, wired keyboard and mouse, Ethernet, and headset. Unplug and your Surface is immediately ready to go.
USB 3.0 speeds handle external SSD transfers, webcam feeds, and USB audio simultaneously without bottlenecking. Gigabit Ethernet replaces unreliable office Wi-Fi for video calls, large file transfers, and cloud backups. The dual Mini DP outputs support a variety of monitors - use Mini DP to DisplayPort, HDMI, or DVI adapters (sold separately) for compatibility with virtually any modern display.
The proprietary Surface connector delivers both data and power to the Surface Pro, so the dock doubles as a charging station. Your Surface charges through the dock while you work - no separate power cable needed at the desk.
