A user recently connected multiple monitors to a dock and would like to use the monitors as an extended laptop display. Which of the following connection methods would be best to use to connect the dock to the laptop?
Correct Answer: D
USB-C is the best connection method to use to connect the dock to the laptop because it supports multiple display outputs, data transfer, audio, and power delivery with a single cable. USB-C can also be compatible with Thunderbolt 3 or DisplayPort over USB-C docking stations, which offer even higher performance and versatility. USB-C is also a reversible connector, which makes it easy and convenient to use.
