The dock connects to a Mac or PC with a single USB-C cable and provides access to the following five ports:

  • 2× USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports

  • 1× USB-C port for power

  • 1× HDMI 2.0 port

  • 1× SD card reader

The USB-C port provides up to 60W of pass-through charging, while the HDMI 2.0 port can drive a 4K display at 30Hz.

It's also available on Amazon in select colors.

I'm so glad Apple made their pro laptop a millimeter or two thinner, so that I can have this box as a companion.

does anyone know if there is a dock that has a detachable USB-C cable? A lot of these docks have really short cables and I'd like to be able to put a longer one to hide the dock behind a monitor.

"The HDMI 2.0 port can drive a 4K display at 30Hz."

Ugh. Seriously OWC?? It's either 1.4 driving 4K30 or 2.0 driving 4K60. In this case, it's definately an HDMI 1.4 as USB-C driving HDMI 2.0 needs to support display alternate mode.

Until USB-C hosts with DisplayPort 1.3/1.4 support come along, you can't get 4k@60Hz down a USB-C cable and have USB 3 data at the same time. So maybe it is technically HDMI 2.0 hardware-wise (i.e. a DisplayPort-to-HDMI 2.0 converter) but OWC have had to peg it at 4K@30Hz because at 60Hz all the other ports would have to be throttled back to USB 2 speed.

So you buy a thin laptop that can’t be upgraded and then have to add a dumb box like this. Oh boy. :)
