Abstract: Examples are described herein for inline actuators. In various examples, an apparatus to operably couple a computing device with a docking station may include: a first connector to be removably attached to the computing device; a second connector to facilitate removable coupling of the apparatus with the docking station; and an inline actuator arranged between the first connector and the second connector. The inline actuator may be actuable to cause a signal to be transmitted to the docking station or the computing device. The signal may directly or indirectly cause the computing device to transition from a first power state to a second power state.
