Description
A “do-it-all” dock, the Thunderbolt Certified TBT4-UD5 Plugable Docking Station stands out as a versatile and powerful hub for modern workspaces. Its robust design includes an array of 13 ports, catering to a wide range of connectivity needs.

Starting with the 40Gbps Thunderbolt 4 host port, this HDMI docking station offers plenty of bandwidth to support two HDMI ports, each capable of driving dual 4K 60Hz displays. A downstream 40Gbps Thunderbolt 4 port is also included to provide high-speed connectivity for advanced Thunderbolt-based applications, such as fast storage devices. Use it to alternatively charge your phone or tablet with up to 15W of power or power an external display such as a USB-C monitor at up to 8K

In addition to Thunderbolt 4 to HDMI display options, the TBT4-UD5 boasts a USB-C port with a 10Gbps transfer rate, ideal for quick file transfers and efficient data management. There are also 4x USB ports (2x 10Gbps, 2x 5Gbps), perfect for connecting a variety of peripherals like keyboards, mice, and external drives. Throw in SD and Micro SD slots, a combo audio jack, Gigabit Ethernet, and a slot for a K lock, and this setup ensures that users can create a powerful and integrated workstation.

Speaking of power, the TBT4-UD5 Thunderbolt and USB4 dock packs it in with up to 100W Power Delivery (96W certified) — more than enough for most power-hungry laptops. Especially useful in business and education environments, the Plugable TBT4-UD5 Docking Station delivers exceptional functionality and convenience.

It’s worth noting on Mac systems, dual display is only supported on M1 Pro/Max, M2 Pro/Max, and M3 Pro/Max systems. Base model M1, M2, and M3 systems will only support one extended display.
Add an external PCIe (PCI Express 3.0) x16 slot and a DisplayPort connection to your Thunderbolt 3 equipped MacBook or laptop

This Thunderbolt™3 PCIe expansion chassis lets you add a PCI Express card to your laptop or desktop computer, through an external Thunderbolt 3 connection. The chassis also features a DisplayPort video output, so you can connect an additional monitor to your laptop, and supports Thunderbolt 3 daisy chaining, so you can expand your workstation even further.

Expand the capabilities of your Thunderbolt 3 computer

The Thunderbolt 3 PCIe chassis makes it easy to expand your system with the capabilities you need to work at peak productivity. You can add many types of PCI Express cards, such as a PCIe USB 3.1/3.0/2.0 and USB-C, SSD, network, eSATA, FireWire or video capture cards. And, with the speed and bandwidth support of Thunderbolt 3 and PCIe 3.0, you can enjoy many of the same port additions you would from the PCI Express expansion slots of a desktop system.

Extend your workstation

The external PCIe enclosure features a dedicated DisplayPort output that lets you add an additional display to your laptop or desktop computer. The enclosure features a second Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) port, that you can use to connect a secondary display (a USB-C video adapter may be required). With multiple extended displays, you can work more efficiently by multitasking faster, and avoid the hassle of continually repositioning several open windows or programs.

You can also use the second Thunderbolt 3 port to connect additional Thunderbolt, USB and DisplayPort devices to your system. You can daisy chain up to six Thunderbolt 3 devices and expand your workstation to suit your specific requirements.

Increase productivity with faster speeds

Thunderbolt 3 is the fastest connection available, which means you don't have to deal with the performance bottlenecks of a slower connection, and can accomplish more in the same amount of time.

At up to 40Gbps this Thunderbolt 3 expansion chassis gives you the throughput to add displays to your laptop, access files quickly, and work without disruptions. It's easy to access and edit large uncompressed files such as videos and images on the fly, making it ideal for dynamic on-site production.

The TB31PCIEX16 is backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.

The Past, Present, and Future is Yours
Connect to past, present or future Thunderbolt and USB devices with the OWC Thunderbolt Dock’s three Thunderbolt  (USB-C) ports and four USB ports. Dual 4K displays or one 5K/6K/8K display, high-performance storage (including NVMe solutions), A/V mixers, phones or tablets, even desktop accessories like a keyboard or mouse are all fair game. Any accessories with past, present or future USB or Thunderbolt interfaces… all connect to the OWC Thunderbolt Dock. 

Expanded Connectivity via Enhanced Compatibility
When the latest Thunderbolt appeared on Macs and PCs, it used a USB-C connector to transfer data, output video, and charge devices through the same cable. The OWC Thunderbolt Dock’s Thunderbolt 4 ports use that same USB-C connector to create a multi-connectivity solution for millions of existing and future Thunderbolt computers and devices. Plus, the ports are fully USB4 future compatible.

Connectivity Reimagined 
Removing any device other than the last one in a daisy chain will break your chain and render all devices unusable until the chain is re-established. The OWC Thunderbolt Dock lets you create three separate “tree branch” chains, so you can remove devices from one chain without affecting or disconnecting the others. You can even add three Thunderbolt bus-powered devices for enhanced connectivity.

Unleash Drive Performance
In the past, daisy chaining external storage required you to place it close to the front of the chain to get fast, reliable performance. That wasn’t possible with bus-powered drives. They had to be placed last in the Thunderbolt chain… and the chain was limited to just one bus-powered device! Now, you can connect multiple portable SSDs directly to the OWC Thunderbolt Dock to experience the fastest speed your storage device can deliver. 

Get Wired 
Nothing can put you behind schedule like slow, low-quality Wi-Fi. But you don’t have to settle for a sub-par connection. Just plug the OWC Thunderbolt Dock’s Gigabit Ethernet port into a wired network for uninterrupted downloads, fast and reliable file transfers, secure network access, and increased productivity. The OWC Thunderbolt Dock’s Ethernet port facilitates collaboration and guards your precious data, so you can knock out that big team project… without worrying about your WiFi connection.

SD Card Reader
Getting content to your computer is a necessity now that photo and video creation have become part of daily life. Don’t waste time struggling with data transport. Transfer your creative files quickly, easily, and conveniently with the OWC Thunderbolt Dock’s SD card reader. You can also use the reader like an external drive to store or backup files at will.

A Higher Vision
The OWC Thunderbolt Dock’s Thunderbolt technology let you connect to a single 5K/6K/8K display or two 4K displays. Enjoy more precise and vivid details in graphic-intensive CAD drawings. Attend a video meeting on one screen while editing content on another screen. Up your Photoshop or Affinity Photo images up a notch. Edit large format video on one display, while previewing the raw playback on the other. Whatever your workstation display needs, the OWC Thunderbolt Dock gives you the vision to take it to the next level.

Powerful Freedom
Gobs of charging power, so you can do it all: Keep your notebook ready for mobile use, power/charge your devices, and free up a Thunderbolt port on your machine… simultaneously. Ready to take a break or done for the day? The Thunderbolt and USB ports continue to power and/or charge connected devices.

Disconnect in One Click
OWC Dock Ejector software safely disconnects multiple drives connected to the OWC Thunderbolt Hub in a single click. Designed by OWC hardware and software engineers, Dock Ejector ensures all data is written before disconnection, saving time and protecting against data loss.

Secure Your Workflow with OWC ClingOn
Active workspaces expose gear to bumps, shoves, and the random tail wag from a pet. Just one ill-timed touch can cause an accidental cable disconnection interruption to your workflow. OWC ClingOn custom cable stabilizers (sold separately) screw into the OWC Thunderbolt Hub’s housing to secure your Thunderbolt (USB-C) connections so you can work with confidence even in the highest foot traffic environments.
