Turn Your Tablet into a Computer
With the Thunderbolt Go Dock, you can turn your tablet into a full computing platform with capabilities that exceed many desktop and notebook computer setups. Now you can transform one port on your tablet into 11 ports so you can read/write SD card media, share files in a blink on a high-speed network, free up your internal storage by offloading to an external drive, and work easier with a larger external display, mouse, and full-sized keyboard. You can even turn your tablet into a desktop video, audio, or podcasting recording and editing setup. The possibilities of how you can use the Thunderbolt Go Dock to redefine your tablet computing experience are nearly limitless.

When Mobile Is Better Than Portable
You want to connect it all and have it all work flawlessly. While bus-powered portable docks are great for most common uses, they can only provide so much power from the host computer. When you want to push your abilities to the max, the mobile ready Thunderbolt Go Dock’s built-in power supply gives you the juice you need. And it lets you take a fabulous diversity of connectivity anywhere easier by eliminating the need to carry around a pain-in-the-neck/shoulder/back power brick.

A Multi-Connectivity Solution for Millions
It’s a hassle trying to figure out or remember what interface your gear and computer has so you can use it all with a dock. Whether you have a Thunderbolt or USB-C Mac, PC, iPad, Chromebook, or Android device, the Thunderbolt Go Dock’s uplink port utilizes a USB-C connector to give you a multi-connectivity solution for millions of past, present, and future (yes even USB4!) computers and devices.1

A Resolutionary Idea
As a digital nomad, hybrid employee, or creative production pro, you need to be able to expand your notebook’s single display – imagine…TWO 4K displays! - for maximum productivity at a temporary work location. With the Thunderbolt Go Dock’s HDMI port and Thunderbolt technology, you can view more detail and make edits easier on up to an 8K display. Edit large format video on one 4K display while previewing the raw playback on a second 4K display. Whatever your workstation display needs, the Thunderbolt Go Dock gives you the vision to go to a higher level.3,4

Whether your computer or tablet is sporting the latest technology or is a few years loved, the OWC Thunderbolt Go Dock gives you multiple options to expand your visual horizons:

14 Features. Arriving to a Workstation Near You.
The right dock makes all the difference and OWC designs the best Docks for about every need imaginable! We have over a decade of engineering experience providing the best in ports, reliability, and power delivery today. Whether for on your desktop, or on the road, the right OWC Dock provides you with the ports you need and connectivity you can count on.

2.5x Faster + MDM
Many of today’s computers and tablets either don’t provide a network port (ugh…slow low-quality Wi-Fi) or feature the older 1Gb/s standard. Now you can transfer, copy, and/or edit files and work up to 2.5x faster over wired networks and enjoy increased productivity in an IP-based workflow with the Thunderbolt Go Dock’s 2.5Gb/s Ethernet port. Or, connect to a NAS for faster data access, backup, and 4K video streaming and editing.2

With MDM compatibility, OWC Docks make Mobile Device Management a breeze. Remote manage Go Dock empowered workstations across your organization. Other docks without MDM just don’t cut it.

Ingest in a Blink
Another “one less thing to carry” benefit for you is the built-in SD card reader. Video footage and photos are a part of daily life, and the Thunderbolt Go Dock lets you ingest your creative content conveniently fast. You can also use the reader like an external drive and store or backup files at will.

Go Multiple
Transform a single Thunderbolt into dual Thunderbolt ports with the OWC Thunderbolt Go Dock. Take advantage of extra Thunderbolt ports to connect multiple Thunderbolt / USB-C drives, devices and SSDs to experience the fastest speed your devices can deliver. Utilize multiple daisy-chains to connect even more with your Go Dock empowered workflow.

Simply Cleaner & Easier
Having a built-in power supply with your Thunderbolt Go Dock keeps your life simple. With one less power brick in your desktop setup, there’s less clutter for cleaner cable management. When mobile with another dock, if you lost its power brick, you are dead in the water. If you happen to misplace the Thunderbolt Go Dock’s standard and common 2-prong "figure 8" power cord, you likely already have one you can “borrow” from another device or can easily stop in at a local store for a replacement and keep working.

Disconnect in One Click
Safely disconnect multiple drives in a single click. OWC Dock Ejector was designed by OWC hardware and software engineers to ensure all data is written before disconnection, saving time and protecting against data loss. It makes losing your hard-earned work a thing of the past.

Apple SuperDrive Ready
OWC's free Dock Ejector software also includes a special driver that enables your OWC Thunderbolt Hub to play and burn CDs and DVDs with the Apple SuperDrive. Just connect the SuperDrive to an open USB-A port on the OWC Thunderbolt Hub for bus power to watch a DVD movie, listen to music CDs, create a backup disk, and install software.

OWC Thunderbolt Cable Included
OWC Thunderbolt Hub comes with a certified 0.8M OWC Thunderbolt (USB-C) Cable. But if your workflow demands a different length to make the connection, OWC Thunderbolt (USB-C) Cables are the perfect choice.

Stabilize Thunderbolt and USB-C Cables with OWC ClingOn
Active workspaces expose gear to bumps, shoves, or even the random tail wag from a pet. OWC ClingOn custom cable stabilizers (sold separately) screw into the OWC Thunderbolt Hub’s housing to reduce – if not completely eliminate – cable strain on Thunderbolt and USB-C connections so you can work with confidence even in the highest traffic environments.

Notes
  • With a USB host (such as a USB-C equipped MacBook, iPad, Chromebook, Android device, or PC), this device works as a USB hub – bandwidth is reduced to USB speeds, Thunderbolt devices are not supported, and additional functionality will vary depending upon the host port's capabilities.
  • With a USB-C host, displays and power delivery support will depend upon the host port's capabilities.
  • With a USB-A host, displays and power delivery are not supported. Requires a USB-C to USB-A adapter (available separately).
  • With a USB-A host, displays and power delivery are not supported. Requires a USB-C to USB-A adapter (available separately).
  • Dual display support, including available resolution and refresh rates, is dependent on host hardware and drivers. Apple silicon M1 Pro, M1 Max, and M1 Ultra Mac models, Apple Intel-based Mac models, and Thunderbolt 4 PCs can support up to two displays at up to 4K @ 60Hz via Thunderbolt.
