Certified Refurbished Microsoft Surface Dock 2

The Microsoft Surface Dock 2 (Model 1917) transforms your Surface device into a complete desktop workstation with four USB-C ports (10 Gbps), two USB-A ports, Gigabit Ethernet, and dual 4K display support at 60Hz. Released in 2020 as Microsoft's premium docking solution, this professionally restored unit delivers 199W total power—including 120W to your Surface device—which means you can charge even power-hungry Surface Laptop Studio models whilst running multiple peripherals simultaneously. During our testing with Surface Pro and Laptop devices, this dock handles demanding setups with external monitors, USB drives, wired networking, and audio devices without the cable clutter of individual adapters.

Ideal For

  • Hybrid workers who need a single-cable desktop setup at home—connect your Surface, two monitors, keyboard, mouse, and Ethernet through one Surface Connect cable for instant desk transformation
  • Business professionals running video conferences whilst multitasking across dual 4K screens with wired network reliability for bandwidth-intensive applications
  • Creative users requiring colour-accurate dual-monitor workflows for photo editing, graphic design, or video production with fast 10 Gbps USB-C data transfer to external drives
  • IT departments standardising hot-desking environments where employees dock different Surface devices throughout the workday

Key Features & Benefits

  • Four USB-C ports (10 Gbps): Transfer 4K video files in seconds—10 Gbps moves a 20GB project folder in approximately 16 seconds versus 3+ minutes on older USB 3.0 docks
  • Dual 4K @ 60Hz display support: Eliminates the flicker and lag of 30Hz displays common on budget docks, delivering smooth mouse movement and video playback across two ultra-HD screens
  • 199W total power delivery: The 120W Surface Connect output charges Surface Laptop Studio at full speed whilst the remaining 60W powers USB peripherals, external drives, and phone charging simultaneously
  • Gigabit Ethernet: Provides stable 1000 Mbps wired networking that's essential for large file uploads, remote desktop sessions, and eliminating Wi-Fi dropouts during video calls
  • Front-facing USB-C ports (15W): Conveniently charge your smartphone or quickly connect USB-C drives without reaching behind your desk
  • Single-cable connection: The integrated 80cm Surface Connect cable provides power, video, data, and networking through one connection—no driver installation required on compatible Surface devices

Common Questions

Can it handle dual monitors whilst charging my Surface Laptop?

Absolutely. Our technicians routinely test this configuration with Surface Laptop 4 and 5 models running dual 4K displays at 60Hz whilst charging at full 120W speed. The dock's 199W power supply provides ample headroom for simultaneous monitor output, USB device power, and laptop charging without performance throttling.

Will this work with my older Surface Pro 6?

Yes, though with display limitations. Surface Pro 6 supports dual 4K monitors at 30Hz refresh rate rather than 60Hz due to the device's internal graphics capabilities. All other dock functions—USB ports, Ethernet, charging, and audio—operate at full specification. Surface Pro 7 and newer models achieve full dual 4K @ 60Hz performance.

How does this compare to USB-C docks from other brands?

The Surface Connect port delivers superior power (120W versus 60-100W on generic USB-C docks) and bypasses USB bandwidth constraints that cause display stuttering on non-Microsoft docks. After testing hundreds of docking solutions since 2001, we find Surface Dock 2 eliminates the random disconnection issues common with third-party adapters on Surface devices.
