OWC Thunderbolt 3 mini Dock review: Affordable dock offers connectivity for two 4K external displays<article>
<section class="page">
<p>Docks abound for USB-C connectors, whether for USB-only devices or for those—like all Macs released in the last few years—that sport the very high-speed Thunderbolt 3. The Other World Computing Thunderbolt 3 mini Dock offers the lowest price so far for offering support via Thunderbolt 3 for two 4K displays. If you need to add two displays and want to preserve USB-C ports, then this dock fits the bill.</p><p>The two HDMI 2.0 ports can each handle up to 4K video at 60Hz. You can also use HDMI adapters and cables to work with other compatible standards, like DisplayPort.</p><p>The dock includes just three other ports: one high-speed USB 3.0 (Type A), one USB 2.0 (also Type A), and gigabit ethernet, which tested at gigabit speeds even with all ports occupied, as it should. However, I was unable to get the ethernet port to appear immediately on my Mac, which may be related to previous Thunderbolt docks used with the computer. After a standard restart, however, the ethernet interface appeared as expected in the Network preference pane and tested perfectly.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3583956/owc-thunderbolt-3-mini-dock-review.html#jump">To read this article in full, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
