Hi Howie,
Thanks for posting your question here! Yes, it is possible to mix and match the Plugable Docking Station UD-160-A with the Plugable UGA-2K-A to achieve universal docking with multiple external displays. This is a common setup used by many of our customers.

Hi Roze
Thanks for the followup. Next question, can you plug the UGA-2K-A into the Dock, or does it have to be plugged into the laptop directly?
Howie,
Yes, you can plug the Plugable UGA-2K-A into any of the USB ports on the Plugable Docking Station UD-160-A. That way when you plug just the Plugable Docking Station UD-160-A in your laptop, the system is connected to multiple monitors.
