MORE PORTS FOR A WORLD OF POSSIBILITIES

For the first time ever, the OWC Thunderbolt Hub lets you consolidate and simplify the connectivity between all your devices with all the Thunderbolt ports you’ve always wanted. The OWC Thunderbolt Hub’s four Thunderbolt (USB-C) ports and one USB port massively expand your connection possibilities. Now you can do more, effortlessly on your Apple M1 Mac, any Apple ‘Intel’ Mac with Thunderbolt 3, or any Thunderbolt 4 PC. You can also use the OWC Thunderbolt Hub with non-Thunderbolt USB-C machines like Chromebooks and iPads too.

ONE HUB TO CONNECT THEM ALL

You can connect and charge nearly anything via this compact hub through a single port on your Thunderbolt equipped Mac or PC. Up to two 4K displays or one 5K/6K/8K display, high-performance storage including NVMe solutions, A/V mixers, phone or tablet, even desktop accessories like a keyboard or mouse are all fair game. Accessories with past, present or future USB or Thunderbolt interfaces — all connect to the OWC Thunderbolt Hub.

CONNECTIVITY REIMAGINED

With daisy chains, removing any device other than the last one will break the chain and disconnect devices until you reconnect them. The OWC Thunderbolt Hub lets you create three separate “tree branch” chains, so you can remove devices from one chain without affecting or disconnecting the others. You can even add three bus-powered Thunderbolt devices.

 

PLUG IN MULTIPLE BUS-POWERED THUNDERBOLT DRIVES

In the past, daisy chaining external storage required you to place it as close to the front of the chain for the fastest and most reliable performance. Placing bus-powered drives first in the chain was impossible as they had to be placed last, and the chain was limited to just one bus-powered device! Now you can connect multiple bus-powered drives directly to the OWC Thunderbolt Hub and unleash their performance.

A HIGHER VISION

Thanks to its Thunderbolt technology, the OWC Thunderbolt Hub lets you connect to a single 5K/6K/8K display, or up to two 4K displays. Enjoy more precise and vivid details in graphic-intensive CAD drawings. Take your Photoshop or Affinity Photo images up a notch. Edit large format video on one display, while previewing the raw playback on the other. Attend a video meeting on one screen while editing content on another screen. Whatever your workstation display needs, the OWC Thunderbolt Hub gives you the connectivity you need to execute your vision.

MAC

The OWC Thunderbolt Hub works with any Mac with an available Thunderbolt 3 port running macOS 11.1 Big Sur. Need a Thunderbolt dock that works with older versions of macOS? Check out our selection of award-winning Thunderbolt 3 docks.

WINDOWS PC

The OWC Thunderbolt Hub works with any Windows PC with an available Thunderbolt 4 port. Need a hub for PC without Thunderbolt 4? Rest assured this connectivity wonder stands ready for duty as a USB-C hub. Check out all of our award-winning Thunderbolt and USB-C docks.

POWERFULLY EFFECTIVE

It’s about time someone invented a hub that looks and works as stylishly cool as you. Surrounded with heat-dissipating anodized aluminum capped off by a polished black top, the OWC Thunderbolt Hub runs cool and looks great no matter where you put it on your desktop. When you’re taking a short break or are done for the day and your computer goes into sleep mode, the OWC Thunderbolt continues to power and/or charge connected devices.

 

DISCONNECT IN ONE CLICK

OWC Dock Ejector software safely disconnects multiple drives from the OWC Thunderbolt Hub in a single click. Dock Ejector was designed by OWC hardware and software engineers to ensure that 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.

SECURE YOUR WORKFLOW

Active workspaces expose gear to bumps, shoves, or even the random tail wag from a pet. Just one ill-timed touch can cause an accidental cable disconnection, and an interruption to your workflow. OWC ClingOn custom cable stabilizers (sold separately) screw into the OWC Thunderbolt Hub’s housing to secure your Thunderbolt (USB-C) connections so you can work with confidence even in the highest foot traffic environments.

OWC, TRUSTED BY PROS & ENTHUSIASTS THE WORLD OVER

We build our hardware to the highest standards of reliability and performance. Because 100% reliability is always the goal, we rigorously quality test and back our hardware with a 2 Year OWC Limited Warranty and award-winning customer support.

All RAM upgrades supplied by Upgradeable have a lifetime warranty.
Our definition of lifetime warranty is: If the product ceases to work at anytime, you can return it for a replacement. Simple. No if's, no but's. Our RAM will out last your computer. We have had the same warranty since year 2000. It has never varied or been modified. Our competitors have played catch up and matched our warranty but they can never match our service. We don't provide a lifetime warranty as a gimmick, it is a statement on the values of our company, our goal of exceptional customer service and the quality of the products we supply.

SSD warranty (3 to 5 year )
Unlike RAM, an SSD has limited write cycles, so it will eventually wear out. However, it will take 10 years or more to wear out an SSD! Warranty varies from 3 to 5 years, please check the SSDs description. Our faulty SSD return policy is to make it as simple as possible for the customer. We will replace faulty drives as soon as they are returned.

14 Day Money Back Guarantee
Our money back guarantee is about your assurance that our upgrades will make a difference. If is not about how many days, it is about customer service and trust. We have had the same guarantees for 20+ years because they are sustainable. We have had to make some modifications. We now reserve the right to charge a 5% restocking fee. This is because the credit card processing fee is non refundeable to us, which means the bank keeps their charges. A refund costs us 5%.

OWC Thunderbolt 4 Hub

Item arrived after short delay all fine and working as hub on MacBook ProM4 sadly it will not power my MAC Superdrive which is one of the reasons I purchased the model.
However adequate for external SSD HD's and lesser peripherals recommended.

it works really well

The design could be a bit better - eg the power connection would be better on the other side.
