Know before you buy
Yes, the TS4 is backward compatible with Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4, and USB-C laptops. Keep in mind that performance, such as display resolution and data speeds, may vary depending on the specific capabilities of your computer's port.
Absolutely. The TS4 supports dual display setups at up to 6K resolution at 60Hz. It can also drive a single 8K display if your computer and monitor support that resolution.
For most laptops, including high-end MacBooks and Windows ultrabooks, 98W is sufficient for full-speed charging. If you use a workstation that requires more than 98W under heavy load, the dock will still charge it, though it may be slower than using your original power brick.
On most modern operating systems like macOS and Windows, the 2.5GbE port is plug-and-play and does not require additional drivers. It provides a significant speed boost over standard Gigabit Ethernet, provided your router and network cables support 2.5Gb speeds.
Yes, the dock features multiple USB ports that can charge your mobile devices. However, these ports are primarily designed for data transfer and peripheral connectivity, so they may charge devices slower than a dedicated high-wattage wall charger.
Yes, the TS4 comes with a 32-inch (80cm) Thunderbolt 4 cable, which is longer than the standard cables included with many other docks. This gives you more flexibility in where you place the dock on your desk.
