Built for modern pro workflows: multi-network, NAS, and high-bandwidth everything
If you’ve ever tried to run a mobile workstation setup that needs fast shared storage and reliable network segmentation, you know what a struggle it can be to find a solution that delivers these avenues of connectivity without turning your workspace into a chaotic tangle of dongles and cables.
This dock is designed to simplify your space with workstation-class networking, turning previously cumbersome setups into something you can deploy cleanly and consistently.
Here’s what makes it a standout for high-demand environments:
- Multi-network versatility: Two fully independent 10Gb/s Ethernet ports plus a front-facing 2.5Gb/s Ethernet port to connect up to three separate networks and/or high-speed network devices at once.
- Extreme throughput: Support for link aggregation so you can bond the 10GbE ports and access NAS performance up to 20Gb/s from a notebook computer.
- Serious expansion over one cable: Build out your setup and unlock high-bandwidth network storage connectivity with the included Thunderbolt 5 cable.
- Connectivity for today and yesterday: Three Thunderbolt 5 ports plus four USB 10Gb/s ports to mix cutting-edge peripherals with legacy essentials.
- Daisy-chain flexibility: Create three separate daisy chains (including bus-powered devices) and remove devices from one chain without disrupting the others.
- Huge display power: Connect up to three 8K displays for sharper detail and more screen real estate.
- Quiet, cool operation: A fanless aluminum enclosure keeps things silent and efficient.
