OWC's upcoming Thunderbolt 2 Dock puts all other docks to shame

<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><a href='http://www.imore.com/owcs-upcoming-thunderbolt-2-dock-puts-all-other-docks-shame' title="OWC's upcoming Thunderbolt 2 Dock puts all other docks to shame"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2014/11/owc-thunderbolt-2-dock-press.jpg?itok=-KqrKFfY' />[/url]</p> <p>Easily the most useful aspect of the Thunderbolt connection has been the creation of single-cable docks, and OWC's just-announced Thunderbolt 2 Dock is really upping the ante on the docking game. Utilizing the blazing-fast 20Gbps interface, the OWC Thunderbolt 2 Dock sports a plethora of additional connection options, certainly far more than other offerings, all through a single cable to your Mac.</p> <!--break--> <p>Of course, this is most useful for users of a MacBook, which already has but a few ports and is meant to be portable, so the fewer cables to plug in, the better. The OWC Thunderbolt 2 Dock aims to make that as simple as possible. Here's a run-down of what holes you'll find in its body:</p> <ul><li>2x Thunderbolt 2 (one will be dedicated to the cable running back to your computer)</li> <li>5x USB 3.0 (yes, 5; two are side-mounted with high amperages for easy access and fast charging)</li> <li>1x FireWire 800 (FireWire is back!)</li> <li>1x HDMI</li> <li>1x Gigabit Ethernet</li> <li>1x headphone</li> <li>1x microphone</li> </ul><p>This is all packaged into a blocky box with an aluminum ring around the outside that matches the finish of an Apple product and topped by glossy black plastic. What's truly impressive is the price — OWC is offering their Thunderbolt 2 Dock for $249. Belkin's Thunderbolt 2 dock offers less connectivity for $50 more, as do a handful of others with similar prices and specs.</p> <p>But there is one thing the OWC Thunderbolt 2 Dock is missing: a date. It's "coming soon!" we're promised, and we'll be eager to check it out when it finally arrives.</p> <p>Source: OWC</p> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-28447"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/409bff86/sc/28/mf.gif' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
