OWC - Thunderbolt Hub - Thunderbolt 4 Hub with 5 Ports for Mac & Windows

I have had one of these for a year and another one purchased a week ago. Both have worked perfectly. In both cases, I used these more as docks and chargers than anything. If it works in your use case as a dock, it’s half the price to get those functions covered as the thunderbolt docks made by various companies (including OWC). USE CASE ONE: At one of my offices, I do not keep a computer but bring in either my MacBook Air M1 or my Dell XPS13. Both computers are great. At my desk, I have a 27 inch Dell 4k monitor, a stand for a laptop to the side (to also serve as second monitor), and this OWC Thunderbolt Doc. I take out which laptop I want to use for that day (one is better than other for certain things and vice versa). I plug it into this Thunderbolt Hub by one connection (the Thunderbolt 4 cable that comes with the OWC Hub). That one plug in charges laptop and connects it, of course, to all the things the hub is connected two. Those are: - TB out 1: connected to 27 4k monitor (works wonderfully), using Thunderbolt cable to display port input on monitor. I always get great resents going T4 to DP. - TB out 2: connect one of the other Thunderbolt ports (USB-C format) to a 10 outlet USB-A USB 3.1 hub. Into that I have plugged in connections to audio speakers, printer, Bluetooth dongle for mouse and MC Logitech Keyboard (fabulous keyboard), and my circle light for zoom calls, and my Logitech 922c 1080p camera. - TB out 3: connects to a TB3 cable that I use to connect external SSDs when I need one connected. I use the front facing USB-A port to connect flash drives or other temporary peripherals. This all works flawlessly, and has so for a year. Again, I open laptop, plug in one cable, and my computer is connected to, and driving, everything, and I’m ready to work with full monitor, keyboard, mouse, and other accessories. And, it’s worked every time. My TB Hub has not had the problem with the cables coming out to easily that some have commented on and I believe has fixed. This is all working so well and it’s a lot less money than a Thunderbolt Doc. But if you need the dock, I bet OWC’s i is a good one. Of course, Caldigjt makes a nice one. USE CASE TWO: In this case, I’m asking less of the hub. I use it to plug the same Dell XPS 13 noted above in at my other office. That changes computer and also connected by Thunderbolt cable to another Dell monitor which is 24 in 4k. Again, TB cable to display port in on the monitor. I have a receiver for a wireless mouse I like a lot plugged into one of the rear farting other TB ports on a dongle. Yeah, doesn’t need the bandwidth but does just what I need. That leavers a USB-C TB port out for connected an external SSD and an option USB-A port on front for whatever flash drive or other need some up. Again, I pull out my DellXPS13 and plug in one cable and it’s powered, charging, and connected to a 4k monitor and other things I use. These are great devices. They have worked well, no brainer type working well, every time. Very pleased with these devices..

とても良い商品です 1点だけ注意 電源コードが3P（丸いアースピン（接地ピン）が1本加わったタイプ） 3P-2P変換アダプターがセットにはなっていないので、 コンセントが2Pしかさせない方だとアダプタを前もって用意しておく必要があります。

Excelente producto funciona al 100%, no defrauda.

Importante sapere che è compatibile con tutti gli hard disk con sistema Thunderbolt 3, ma serve utilizzare sempre e solo cavi thunderbolt 4, in caso non riconosce gli HD. In lungimiranza con la tecnologia che avanzerà verso il 4, è ottimo investimento. Lo utilizzo come Hub per collegare un Apple MacBook Pro M1 13" con scheda audio Apogee Symphony Desktop e con un Hard Disk, per esempio, ed è perfetto, non sgancia mai....meglio spendere qualcosa in più, ma state tranquilli per l'intera giornata. Ha il suo alimentatore "ingombrante", ma appunto, se funzionale....meglio così.

Works with my (finicky) Asus Thunderbolt 4x card in my PC. I tried other Thunderbolt docks and they were not recognized. I plugged in the OWC Thunderbolt hub into my Asus card and it was recognized immediately giving my three times the thunderbolt outlets - the Thunderbolt Control Centre (Apple) informed me that I had just hooked up a "Other World Computing" Thunderbolt Hub (I did not know what OWC stood for. The OWC site provided a lot of information and some software that allows me to "disconnect" drives that are hooked up to the hub. This hub was a lot less expensive than others I had tried and it WORKED RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX. It also appears to be of high quality. The Vender in this case was also great - I received it weeks before the due date (in fact a couple of days after ordering it). Great product.
