A full desk’s worth of connections from one cable.

Why people pick it

  • 10 Gigabit Ethernet built in, for fast NAS and studio networks
  • DisplayPort 2.1 output plus two Thunderbolt 5 ports, so an M5 Pro can run three displays and an M5 Max four from one cable
  • 140W host charging matches the 16-inch MacBook Pro's 140W adapter
  • Ten 10Gb/s USB ports split across two USB controllers

Know before you buy

  • No HDMI port; HDMI monitors need a USB-C or DisplayPort to HDMI adapter
  • Large 330W external power supply
  • Windows needs CalDigit's 10GbE driver, and USB4 hosts need PCIe tunnelling for Ethernet and the second USB controller
  • Thunderbolt 5 speed needs a Thunderbolt 5 host; base M5 MacBook Pros connect at Thunderbolt 4 speed
