The dock has micro hdmi male, and micro usb b male. Or at least, as close as one can get to one:

Which USB and HDMI adapters/cables did you use? This summer I ended up making my micro hdmi to hdmi
cable, but it was hard to solder, with the shields and all and it kept
flickering.
Yeah. I'm good at soldering but I'd rather not wire up a MicroHDMI by hand.
What I _might_ do is to clip off the USB A female end and splice it to
an ordinary USB A male pigtail clipped from an ordinary cable or
keyboard/mouse to make a 1-part USB cable.
So I ordered the micro hdmi female to hdmi male
adapter
from china. The rest I found in the US (my parts bin or the local
computer shop).
Right.
I've posted a bunch of pictures with the proper
nomenclature on all
the adapters and cables:

Thanks for that. I have one rev 1.1 and one rev 2.0 Pi, so it's
easier to get the power going than with a 1.0 Pi (though I have no
problems doing SMT work to make that change myself).
