is nc.com hey guys we're here at a booth called J5 create and there was something
that really caught my eye they have these things called Newport Wormhole and
Ultra station Technologies the one I'm mainly interested in is the Jud 500 now
I haven't been briefed on this but it's pretty easy to figure out so there's DC
in and a host USB at the bottom so you plug the host USB 3 in into your
computer plug dcn into the wall and then that gives all this functionality up
here to your computer so as you can see along here there's USB 3.0 charging P
Port here standard USB 3.0 port HDMI VGA
uh Audio Mic Ethernet USB 2.0 and
Wormhole switch now I'm not entirely sure what Wormhole switch does maybe if
I can catch someone and get that explained to me we will figure it out
later sorry guys we're having a few problems with with our camera here if
you are someone who has a business laptop or gaming laptop or really just a
laptop and no desktop and you want to bring it home from wherever you are and
you want to increase your functionality you can have this thing set up you can
have already everything plugged in that you need you can have an additional monitor plugged in through this you can
have your keyboard and mouse and everything plugged in drop your laptop
down plug it all in have dedicated Ethernet everything so it makes it very
easy just one cable plug in from a USB 3 and you basically turn it into a desktop
of course it's not going to be as fast in multiple ways because it's not a
desktop for one and two because you you only have one USB 3.0 Lane going to your
computer and you have all this stuff coming into it but it's still very very
very helpful if you're not a super power user this is a very cool idea to get all
that more functionality out of your laptop so thanks for watching hopefully
this is something you're interested in and if you want to see all of our compy Tex content be sure to subscribe to
