It is a spring-loaded vehicle dock that charges a large-format Apple iPad wrapped in an IntelliSkin® Next Gen sleeve, adds two USB Type-A ports for peripherals, and locks the tablet down with a keyed top latch. Worth knowing: unlike RAM's plain locking dock, this version uses the 60W dock cup, so the security does not cost you charging speed.

The dock connects to RAM® ball and socket systems via a 4-hole AMPS pattern ball adaptor, sold separately.

RAM's plain locking dock (RAM-GDS-DOCKL-AP37CPU) uses a 15W cup, but this one uses the 60W dual-peripheral cup, the same as the non-locking version. It is the one case in the AP37 range where you can have the lock and full charging speed together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat can I plug into the two USB-A ports?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnything the iPad would normally accept over USB; keyboards, barcode scanners, receipt printers, card readers. Each port supplies up to 900mA at 5V, which suits most handheld peripherals but is not enough to charge a second device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDo I need an IntelliSkin sleeve as well?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The dock charges through the pogo pins on an IntelliSkin® Next Gen sleeve, so the iPad has to be wearing one. It is not included with the dock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDo I need a special charger?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes; a Power Delivery (PD) charger is required to supply sufficient power to this dock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I build this dock from parts instead?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It is assembled from the \u003cstrong\u003eRAM-GDS-DOCKB-AP37U\u003c\/strong\u003e body, the \u003cstrong\u003eRAM-GDS-DOCKLH2U\u003c\/strong\u003e locking top latch and the \u003cstrong\u003eRAM-GDS-DOCK-V10PD2U\u003c\/strong\u003e power and dual USB-A dock cup. Buying the complete dock is usually cheaper; the parts route is for repairs and for reconfiguring a dock you already own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhen will my order ship?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe don't hold this dock on the shelf in Auckland; we bring it in to order.
