Description
The RAM® Locking GDS® Tough-Dock™ is a keyed vehicle dock designed to hold and charge compatible Apple iPad models used in fleet, mobile workstation, and vehicle-mounted applications. It is made for iPads installed in an IntelliSkin® Next Gen protective sleeve and is commonly used in work trucks, service vehicles, delivery fleets, field operations, and other professional mobile environments.
This dock provides USB Type-C charging through integrated GDS® pogo pin contacts, helping keep supported tablets powered while mounted. The keyed locking design adds theft deterrence and helps keep the tablet secured during daily use in shared or commercial vehicles.
This is a docking component, not a complete tablet mount. A compatible IntelliSkin® sleeve, RAM® ball adapter with 4-hole AMPS pattern, socket arm, and mounting base are required to complete the installation.
