Posted on | Updated on
If you’re looking for a universally compatible dock, with support for HDMI- and USB-C-based video, 96W Power Delivery, quick and efficient data transfer speeds, and horizontal and vertical placement options, the SD5560T Thunderbolt™️ 3 and USB-C Dual 4K Hybrid Docking Station – 96W PD – Win/Mac has you covered.
It’s a truly hybrid docking solution that requires no drivers or downloads, and works across operating systems (Windows and macOS), as well as device types (Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4, or USB-C).
This dock supports up to two external displays (HDMI- and USB-C-based video) for Thunderbolt-based devices; quick and efficient data transfer speeds (40Gbps); and offers multiple ports for connecting peripherals and accessories, including two USB-C ports, four USB-A ports, one Gigabit Ethernet port, one audio combo jack, an HDMI 2.0 port, and an extra Thunderbolt 3 port (when used with USB-C Alt Mode laptops, this Thunderbolt 3 port is downgraded to USB 2.0 and does not support video or daisy chaining features).
As we move towards a more digital world, the need for powerful, reliable, and flexible connectivity solutions is more important than ever. Thunderbolt™ docking stations are a game-changer in this regard, providing a consistent and industry-leading set of capabilities for connecting laptops to data, video, and power, with the simplicity of just one USB-C port. And when it comes to Thunderbolt™ docking stations, Kensington is the brand you can trust.
So, what exactly is a Thunderbolt™ docking station? Essentially, it is a device that utilizes Thunderbolt™ technology to dynamically adjust data and video bandwidth, allowing you to connect to displays, storage, and USB accessories for a clutter-free workspace. Thunderbolt™ 3 and 4 docking stations maximize your work-from-home experience, enabling you to work smarter and more efficiently.
One of the key advantages of Thunderbolt™ docking stations is their ability to support 4K and 8K video, delivering crisp resolution, contrast, and color depth. Thunderbolt™ 4-enabled host devices can extend visual productivity with single 8K or dual 4K (@ 60 Hz) video output, offering lightning-fast speeds and improved performance.
Speaking of lightning-fast speeds, Thunderbolt™ ports can transfer data at speeds up to 40Gbps, which is double the speed of previous generations and up to 8x faster than USB 3.2 Gen1 (previously called USB 3.0). This means you can transfer large files, backup data, and run multiple applications without any lag or interruptions.
In addition to data transfer speeds, Thunderbolt™ docking stations can provide up to 96 watts of power to quickly and easily charge any Thunderbolt™ 4, Thunderbolt™ 3, USB4, or USB-C device. You can connect anything and be certain that you'll receive optimal performance, without worrying about power supply issues.
Another advantage of Thunderbolt™ docking stations is that they come with one universal port, which makes it simple to connect to multiple protocols while supporting Intel VT-d DMA Protection. This port can replace up to 12 other ports, simplifying connectivity and making it hassle-free.
In conclusion, Thunderbolt™ docking stations are the ultimate solution for your connectivity needs. With Kensington, you can trust that you're getting a reliable, high-quality product that will improve your work-from-home experience and enhance your productivity. Say goodbye to cluttered workspaces and hello to a streamlined, efficient way of working with Thunderbolt™ docking stations.
