Thunderbolt 4 Docking Station with 90W Power Delivery for MacBook & Windows - 8K/Dual 4K Display, Thunderbolt 4 Cable, HDMI, Ethernet, SD & Audio Ports, Gray

I had originally purchased the CalDigit TS4 Thundersbolt 4 dock for more money than the Belkin dock. The Caldigit TS4 constantly dropped ethernet connectivity and sometimes could not connect my Macbook to the internet period! Unacceptable for working from home. The internet throughput speed was also markedly slower on the Caldigit than on this Belkin. The Caldigit had NO HDMI ports (REALLY!). I had to buy a separate usb c to HDMI dongle to plug into the Caldigit TS4 and that Caldigit dongle heated up to an extreme. The TS4 also put off a tremendous amount of heat. The Belkin has built in HDMI and usbC thunderbolt for ports and the ethernet connectivity is identical to being connected directly to the router. The Belkin produces little to no heat and is cheaper than the CalDigit. I returned all of the CalDigit garbage, purchased this Belkin and could not be happier with the swap. It also supports two monitors with the M1 Pro chip in my MacBook.

I wanted something to connect all my stuff when I bought a new MacBook. I had speakers, an extra 34" monitor, keyboard, Mouse and wanted to connect power too. This unit has it all - even a screwed down main cable so even though I use it over and over - it is locked in place and secure. So I only have to plug in one USB-C cable into the Mac and it charges normally and fully connects. One key stroke on the keyboard "wakes" the Mac and I am off and running. Great set up and highly recommend this unit.

Warning do NOT purchase this item unless you don't care about the SD card reader. Right away i noticed the spring loaded SD card reader on this dock felt like it was non premium at all. I should have gone with my gut because now 4 months later, it no longer reads cards. I am a photographer and the SD slot on my macbook pro is already hit an miss for whatever reason. So now i have to plug in yet another device to read SD cards reliably. I would recomend a different brand with better quality control. Only other thing to add is the configuration of the ports makes it annoying to use as i am constantly fishing around on the back of this unit to plug something in. Which more ports were on the FRONT of the unit. Thats all i got.

I was excited to receive this product—it looks great and specs are fantastic. However, it came with a faulty power supply (MOSO brand) that made the whole thing unusable out of the box. The indicator light on the power supply didn't lit up. After some testing, I found that the docking station itself works fine when connected to an alternate power supply with nearly identical specs. Since this was purchased in "Used – Like New" condition from Amazon Resale, it’s clear that no proper inspection was done before putting it back up for sale. Unfortunately, because I’m currently out of the country for work, I can’t return the unit to Amazon, so I’m stuck with a product that came with a non-functioning part. Update: 08.25: After some frustrating back-and-forth with Amazon and later Belkin support, I ended up buying the original power supply on ebay. The higher rating is strictly for the main unit itself, not for the support teams that failed to deliver.

Most of the reviews I saw for this were from MAC users. Here is a PC, and more specifically a Windows 11 Review. First of all, I am using an Alienware X17 with an i9 processor. The computer itself is able to handle up to 3 external monitors, plus its own display for a total of 4, via HDMI, Thunderbolt and mini displayport, and it works fine when you plug it all into the laptop, but the entire point of a docking station is to minimize all of that. That is where this belkin Thunderbolt 4 pro comes into play. When i first got it, i was dissapointed, because i was using 1 HDMI and 1 Thunderport adapter that i had previously used on the laptop directly. i was only able to get 1 of my 2 main monitors to work. After talking to support, i bought a 2nd HDMI adapter for my monitor, and ended up getting my 2 main monitors to work using the 2 HDMI ports on this docking station... the 3rd monitor was still being stubborn. according to the information that Belkin publishes on this docking station, you should be able to use the thunderbolt port next to the 2 HDMI ports, and the world should keep on spinning. it didnt. There is still something wrong with that port. i get power, and the 4th screen powers on, but no signal. I decided as a last ditch effort to try the USB C plug on the front, and that actually worked. for my purposes, i am happy, but for those of you that want to use the higher performance USB C /Thunderbolt on the back, may not work for you, the one on the front may not be as high performance, but it does work, otherwise, use the HDMI ports and you should be fine... for those of you with Macs that swear this doesnt work... that is why we use PC. it works with everything! Yes, i could have used the dell thunderbolt dock, and i tried, but sent it back when i relized it didnt supply enough power to the laptop. Dell does not make a docking station that provides enough power for an Alienware laptop. Neither does Belkin for that matter. The laptop power supply is 300 Watts, and even this docking staiton power supply only puts out 90 watts to the machine. no matter what, you will need to use your Dell/Alienware power supply, but it does work. just be patient, and you will get there.

I bought one of these that was supposed to be like new but it actually had some pretty decent amount of use on it. Normally they're $300 brand new but the first one I bought was 140 used like new. The second one I bought that was used like new was 119 and it was in pristine condition with the plastic wrapper still on it. This is a solid quality unit and I've had no issues with it so far.

For those Mac users complaining about display issues - you need to look at the specs for YOUR machine. This hub is not the problem, it works as expected. It even says multi display port is limited by hardware and OS. Do not drop a grand or more on hardware if you don't know its capabilities or limitations! This works great, I use it with my M2 MacBook Air and My M2 Mac Studio. I originally purchased for my MBA, when I got my Studio, it already has a lot of the ports - but since I use both at the same station, instead of unplugging my external thunderbolt drive and other accessories from the hub and plugging it into the Studio, I just plug the Studio into the hub. If you have a desktop, look up the specs on Apple's site... but here's a quick rundown of how many displays most popular M series laptops support. MacBook Air M1 Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display at millions of colours and: One external display with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz MacBook Air M2 Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display at 1 billion colours and: One external display with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz MacBook Pro M2 13" Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display at millions of colors and: One external display with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz MacBook Pro M3 Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display at 1 billion colours and: One external display with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz MacBook Pro M3 Pro Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display at 1 billion colours and: Up to two external displays with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz over Thunderbolt, or one external display with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz over Thunderbolt and one external display with up to 4K resolution at 144Hz over HDMI One external display supported at 8K resolution at 60Hz or one external display at 4K resolution at 240Hz over HDMI MacBook Pro M3 Max Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display at 1 billion colours and: Up to four external displays: Up to three external displays with 6K resolution at 60Hz over Thunderbolt and one external display with up to 4K resolution at 144Hz over HDMI Up to three external displays: Up to two external displays with 6K resolution at 60Hz over Thunderbolt and one external display with up to 8K resolution at 60Hz or one external display with 4K resolution at 240Hz over HDMI

I can't believe how stupid this is. Bought this specifically because it has 2 HDMI port. Use it for an M2 macbook pro which supports 2 external displays connected via Thunderbolt. Nope, only one is supported as it turns out. So whats the point of the second port? Complete waste of money.
