Docking station for SIMATIC FIELD PG M6

So far I've used a Dell laptop for both office and field work. When use it in the office, it connects to the 32 "4k Dell monitor and other peripherals through its own Dell docking station.

We have ordered new Field pg M6s and I would like you to recommend a docking station that will do the same for the M6 PG.

I don't want to disconnect all cables connected with it every time when i need to go out to the field.


Thanks in advance.

Hello k4;

There is no specific part number for a docking station on a PG M6, in Siemens documentation.

The explanation may be found in the following link:

 Thank you for the info Daniel. I'll check on the 3rd party market.

Does anyone have any experience using the M6 PG with 3rd party docking station?

Hello k4,

Its a few years since your post but as I am newly using an M6 PG and my Dell docking station does not work - did you find a suitable alternative for your PG?

Hi.

I use a Targus DOCK570USZ to my PG M6, its works perfect for me with 3 monitors @1920x1080.

You need to look for an Portreplicator with USB 3 and not only Thunderbolt.

My Targus has support for both USB 3 and Thunderbolt.

Hi,

I'm currently using a Dell WD19S which should have USB3.1 support as well (if I read the technical data correctly) but it does simply nothing, not even charging. It's just an expensive USB hub with the M6. As the Targus works for you I consider switching to this one. 

Thanks very much for your feedback. :)

Hello,
