Conquers Workflows and Combats Clutter
When you’re back in your office or studio, the Thunderbolt Pro Dock has the power and ports you need to manage your workflow and take control of your workspace.

Its 10Gb Ethernet connection keeps you connected at top speeds, and with 85W charging power, your notebook is charged up and ready to move.
Create A Tablet ProStation
While iPad Pros and other tablet computers offer awesome content creation potential, they’re handcuffed by limited internal storage, display size, and often a single Thunderbolt (USB-C) port. Instead of lugging around a bulky notebook or worse, being chained to a non-portable desktop workstation, capture what you need on the fly with a tablet. Back at a desk, transform that tablet into a “prostation” with an external display, keyboard, mouse, and external drive all connected to this dock.
OWC Thunderbolt Cable Included
OWC Thunderbolt Pro Dock comes with a certified 0.7M OWC Thunderbolt Cable. But if your workflow demands a different length to make the connection, OWC Thunderbolt (USB-C) Cables are the perfect choice.
Disconnect In One Click
Safely disconnect multiple drives in a single click. OWC Dock Ejector was designed by OWC hardware and software engineers to ensure all data is written before disconnection, saving time and protecting against data loss. It makes losing your hard-earned work a thing of the past.
Work with Ultimate Confidence
Active workspaces expose gear to unexpected bumps and shoves. OWC ClingOn custom cable stabilizers (available separately) screw into the OWC Dock or OWC Drive housing to reduce – if not completely eliminate – cable strain on Thunderbolt and USB-C connections so you can work with ultimate confidence even in the highest foot traffic environments.
