About this item
- Thunderbolt 4 docking station for Thunderbolt 4 Windows laptops and Thunderbolt 3 and Thunderbolt 4 MacBooks (macOS 11 or later); if you have a Thunderbolt 3 Windows laptop, this is not the dock for you, see part # K34009US)
- Supports single 8K or dual 4K @ 60 Hz, single 4k @ 120Hz, or dual 1080P @120Hz Hz video output for Thunderbolt 4 devices; (note: any Macs with the M1, M2 or M3 chipset will only display to a single monitor due to Apple’s chipset limitations, but Macs with M1/M2/M3 Pro and M1/M2/M3 Max CPUs will work with dual displays)
- Connect your laptop to the Thunderbolt 4 port (.8 meter Intel Certified TB4 cable included); connect your displays using one or two of the Thunderbolt 4 ports (usb-c to hdmi or usb-c to DisplayPort adapter or cable not included); unused Thunderbolt ports can connect directly to Thunderbolt devices (up to five additional via daisy chain, max 2 per port) while providing transfer speeds up to 40Gbps
- 180 Watt Power Supply delivers 90W power to charge your laptop; delivers additional power to run peripherals like hard drives, and for charging phones and tablets including Thunderbolt 4, Thunderbolt 3, USB 4.0, USB 3 and USB 2 peripherals
- Static charging technology provides 15W to each of the downstream Thunderbolt 4 ports without taking power from the laptop – laptop still receives full 90W of power even when all other ports are utilized; other Thunderbolt 4 docks will divert power away from the laptop
- Three Thunderbolt 4 downstream ports (all capable of data, video and audio and 15w power each); SD card reader (UHS-II SD 4.0); four USB-A ports (one 5V/1.5A charging port and three Gen2@10Gbps ports); one Gigabit Ethernet port; one audio combo jack; on/off switch Vesa mounting holes (see Kensington mounting bracket, part # K34050WW); Kensington lock slot (for a lock see part #K65035AM or K60600WW)

- Three-year warranty and lifetime Kensington technical support
- This dock supports the Gigabit Ethernet standard which provides a maximum data rate of 1Gbps. Actual Ethernet speeds may vary depending on, but not limited to, Internet bandwidth, Ethernet cables, network switches, and the hardware and firmware performance of the host computer

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Don't about this problem, I try to make unpleasant environment to meet this problem, for hibernate mode.
Well wake up. 180-watt power is for itself operation 90 watt and supply for connect to devices 90watt.
The power is enough than other same products, etc. The OWC,. small than 130W. I was fully tested the OWC counterparts, the test scores is thunderbolt 3 controller with extern storages, a little lower for writing speed. OWC score higher for writing speed. but a littler. Yes OWC counterparts also good things, but have no control for sleep mode, so it powers on states, connected all device have consume Energy even no signals. Notebooks goes power off. the Doc work continues. Now only use 1 days. If i find a problem, Tell here.
Currently, I find a problem when using USB A port which is located back, three usb port,
which speeds 10gbps.
When i test speed, very slow and disconnected when testing, the device separated.
So i have to initialized. for hardware problem, i will test same H/W dock.
Kensington sent another dock, i will compare each docks.
I test the dock from exchanged same another dock, find same problem.
The problem is related power suppled USB port A, about 900mA.
Tested device is extern SSD disk, with 512GB, i guess, USB A port is
only used low power devices, for keyboard, mouse, printer, small usb device.
I move to the SSD disk to thunderbolt port, then no problem from now.
SD5700t have three thunderbolt port 2 port for dual monitor, last for
other device for high speed, more power device, extern SSD device.
I accept this problem to avoid use USB A port.
Thanks.
finally, i test LG S8 27inch, 4k monitor to connected DP-ALT mode, Well operate,
So I conclude All my tesing is mostly Good, USB A ports a little unstable, but it is
the Extern Disk have much eats current more 900ma. thanks again to give me a chance
to another same Dock to compare it's operating. More over back to a little money,
The Dock discount when i test. I will back to another dock because i finished test.
Thinks for Amazon.`

I reached out to Amazon and they directed me to their Kensington customer service portal since there's a 3-year warranty. I spoke w/ their tech supported and he noted that it was the thunderbolt cable that was faulty/defective and that they would send out a replacement within 10 business days. I even registered my product on their website and created a ticket request as well on their tech support site. Wanted to ensure there was written proof of this. So I had all my bases covered and assured it would be delivered. Come nearly a month out and I still hadn't received it nor an update. I reached out to their customer support team and they admitted that the order for the cable was put on a "hold". An error on their end and the order was never actually placed. My issue was "escalated" and they said they would send one in 14 business days. I've currently followed up through their Kensington tech support page and they are still "reviewing the escalated situation". So the order has yet to be placed... yet again.
I'm going on nearly 1.5 months and that dock has just been sitting on the desk collecting dust. Very disappointed in the customer support and how delayed everything is. At this point I'd just like a refund or they could resend me a new dock.
Disappointed still. I don't want to shell out an additional $30 for a tb4 cable.. just to make this dock work.. Come on Kensington.. help!
UPDATE: Turns out the whole dock is defective. The Kensington support team sent me a thunderbolt 3 cable (was supposed to be a 4 and an even shorter one). After testing it w/ their TB3 cable, still did not work. Their support team said they will send a new replacement dock. But they want me to mail back the broken one. When asked if they would be sending me a shipping label, they immediately said they don't do that. So I'll have to shell out more money to send this broken dock.. to get a new one... Makes no sense how they just cant issue me a return label. Very disappointed in Kensington's customer service. I even asked if they could expedite the dock and they turned that down. You're only point of contact is a third-party support company based on the other side of the world.
If you're going to purchase this... be wary. I'll update this review once I get my new dock.. but hopefully won't have to pay to send the broken one out and the company can do the right thing....
