Description
The RAM® GDS® Tough-Dock™ is a locking powered vehicle dock for select Apple iPad Pro 12.9, iPad Pro 13, and iPad Air 13 tablets used with an IntelliSkin® Next Gen protective sleeve. It is built for fleets, commercial vehicles, service trucks, workstations, and other mobile environments where the tablet needs to stay secured, powered, and ready for daily use.
This dock uses GDS® Technology™ with an integrated pogo pin connection and USB Type-C power input to support high-speed charging. The keyed locking design helps protect the tablet while mounted, making it a strong option for shared vehicles, field teams, and professional tablet deployments.
This is a dock component only, not a complete mounting kit. A compatible RAM® 4-hole AMPS ball adapter, mounting arm, and base are required to build a complete mounting system.
