The j5create Aero Drop CrossLink wireless dongle is a multi-functional tool that allows you to turn any iPad or Android tablet into an extended screen for Windows, share files and content, control PC and mobile from a single peripheral set, and more.
After plugging it in, you can instantly turn a nearby iPad or Android tablet into a second display for your Windows PC, like having an extra monitor. You can also control all connected devices, from your PC to mobile, with one mouse and keyboard, or a single set of peripherals. No more swapping controls when moving from one desktop to the next. Moreover, you can also use the j5create Aero Drop to share files, photos and text between systems instantly. It works with the companion app, available cross-platform, and it does all of this, every function, without using Wi-Fi, cloud services or server hopping. It doesn’t lock you into using a single ecosystem either.
You’d think all of that would mean it has a hefty price tag, too, but nope. It’s a reasonable $70. It doesn’t look like there are any subscriptions to pay for, either. That’s a win in my book.
What can you do with the j5create Aero Drop CrossLink wireless dongle?
Most brands would prefer you buy all their devices and stay inside their ecosystem. They don’t expect you to swap back and forth between PC, Mac, iOS, and various solutions, whether for work, or because they’re most cost-effective. That means most of these platforms are closed off and tough to use in various settings, like sharing a media presentation from your iPad to office screens. But the j5create Aero Drop CrossLink ends that siloed bullshit. You have the freedom to seamlessly move between devices and ecosystems.
It works as a high-performance wireless bridge, without Wi-Fi or cloud services. That way, you can sync up your Windows, iPadOS, iOS, and Android devices in a single, unified experience. Imagine sharing or collaborating with media stored on your Windows workstation, broadcasting to other devices. Using a tablet as a second screen to be more productive, anytime and anywhere. Or using all your fragmented systems with a single set of controls — your favorite mouse and keyboard.
Plus, it looks like a cute little goober, does it not?
Who is it for?
Anyone that wants to be more productive, share files between cross-platform devices, or control gear with a single mouse and keyboard set. Professionals, gadget-lovers, tech enthusiasts, business owners, presenters, you name it.
