Product Description

OWC Thunderbolt 2 Dock: Thunderbolt 2 | USB 3.1 Gen 1 | FireWire 800 | HDMI Gigabit Ethernet | Audio In & Out

FINALLY, A THUNDERBOLT DOCK DONE RIGHT

12 ports of phenomenal flexibility. Up to 78 devices connected to your Mac. All united with just one lightning-fast Thunderbolt 2 cable. OWC Thunderbolt 2 Dock is the new foundation for your perfect workspace. Awesome performance meets incredible connectivity, the OWC Thunderbolt 2 Dock offers the ultimate in convenience and flexibility to streamline any workflow.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN A DOCK AND MORE

The OWC Thunderbolt 2 Dock is the unmatched expansion platform for your Thunderbolt-equipped Mac, heralding a new era of flexibility, connectivity, and dependable performance. Whether adding USB 3.0 to an older Mac, Gigabit Ethernet to a newer MacBook Pro, or ensuring backwards compatibility with your existing FireWire 800 peripherals, the Thunderbolt 2 Dock keeps you connected.

 

  • 12 Ports of incredible connectivity
  • Dual Thunderbolt 2 ports for daisy-chain support
  • Ultra-HD 4K and multiple display support
  • Five USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports, including two high-powered charging ports
  • FireWire 800 for connecting external storage and legacy devices



MORE POWER TO WORK

The Thunderbolt 2 Dock features 5 fully-powered USB 3.0 ports for powering hard drives, SSDs, or optical drives, including 2 side-mounted, high-powered ports providing up to 1.5 Amps of power — perfect for charging iPhone, iPad, tablets, smartphones, and other USB-charged devices.





CONNECT MORE DISPLAYS

Configure the ultimate display setup to meet the needs of your workflow. Add a dazzling ultra HD 4K display, two high definition displays, or one 4K display and one high definition display. Even connect a VGA, DVI, or DisplayPort monitor utilizing the Thunderbolt 2 Dock's built-in HDMI and Thunderbolt ports.*

*Dual monitor support requires the use of at least one Thunderbolt display. If you connect a display to the HDMI port, then the only display that will work through the Thunderbolt port is a Thunderbolt display. If you are not using the HDMI port, then you can use a Mini Display Port cable or adapter to connect a display to the Thunderbolt port.

    35 customers mention18 positive17 negative

    Customers are mixed about the port of the multiport hub. Some mention it looks sharp, has more USB ports than most docks, and has separate jacks for audio in/out. However, others say that it's very pricey and one of the USB ports just stopped working.

    "...The two high-powered USB charging ports are great for devices when you don't want to sync...." Read more

    "...I installed those and the dock still didn't work. Coincidentally, I upgraded my mac and it started working...." Read more

    "...1. The USB interface, and the external monitor ports are not awake and connected when you boot the machine...." Read more

    19 customers mention6 positive13 negative

    Customers are mixed about the value of the multiport hub. Some mention it's worth the price, while others say it'd be better off buying a different product.

    "...In fact, even when compared to other thunderbolt docks, this is expensive. What you get, however, are more USB ports and FireWire 800...." Read more

    "...Fine again when it cools down, great value for the dollar." Read more

    17 customers mention9 positive8 negative

    Customers are mixed about the sturdiness of the multiport hub. Some mention that it's well-made, reliable, and solid. However, others say that it is not reliable, has profound manufacturing defects, and is cheaply made.

    "...They are both in-service years later. Their quality has been well up to the task and all the ports work. Recommend without reservations." Read more

    "...the dock gets the job done most of the time, but it has some critical issues that make me wish I had used my money for an even more expensive dock..." Read more

    "...It has been reliable and has made my desktop a bit cleaner...." Read more

    "...But they're cheaply made, and DO NOT hold up...." Read more

    13 customers mention4 positive9 negative

    Customers are mixed about the audio quality of the dock. Some mention that the audio through isolated headphones sounds OK, while others say that it passes hum and digital noise. They also mention that there is a hidden limit to the audio, which is limited to only 16-bit audio. The interface in this TB dock sounds kind of dead, compared to the MacBook Pro's. Some customers also report that the dock does not pass audio over the mini-displayport, and there's terrible audio packet loss between the dock and the monitor.

    "...Unfortunately, I get some noise in the speakers (3.5mm audio out on the dock) when some USB devices are plugged in, though it's only noticeable if..." Read more

    "...The USB audio seems to work fine...." Read more

    "...certainly quieter, but also appears to roll off some high-end, sounds more compressed, not as transparent as the MacBook Pro's analog audio...." Read more

    56 customers mention15 positive41 negative

    Customers are dissatisfied with the connectivity of the multiport hub. They mention that it disconnects itself randomly, hard drives and all peripherals get disconnected, and the dock will just randomly disconnect while they are using it. They also say that it restarts when touched and seems to reboot.

    "...Seemingly at random, it will disconnect, thus dropping my display, speakers, Ethernet, and everything else I have plugged into the dock..." Read more

    "...This is the big one. The dock will just randomly disconnect while I am using it. The cables are not loose or moving...." Read more

    "...Gigabit Ethernet appears to be working well, Network Utility reports a Gigabit Ethernet connection...." Read more

    "...on the hub and let it overheat - when it's almost red hot, disk drives will dismount. Fine again when it cools down, great value for the dollar." Read more

    9 customers mention0 positive9 negative

    Customers are dissatisfied with the cord of the multiport hub. They mention that it does not have a thunderbolt cable to connect it to anything.

    "...It does not come with a Thunderbolt Cable, so be sure to have one on hand...." Read more

    "...It came with no signal supply (Thunderbolt) cable; in other words, it comes with no cable to connect it to anything...." Read more

    "...Works as expected. Sold without Thunderbolt cable ! This was not expected and added to the original price." Read more

    "...Probably worth mentioning it doesn't come with a thunderbolt cable, and it's obviously worthless without one." Read more

    I needed this badly for my Macbook when california went on covid lock down and had to work from home. This was my only option since my macbook is older and only had a thunderbolt 2 port. I saw the reviews were 50/50, but a year later it works GREAT! I purposely do not fiddle with it and try not to mess the cables or anything. My laptop stays docked and I only unplug (rarely) directly from the laptop ports, not the dock. Hopefully I dont jinx myself writing this review.
