DisplayPort - 4086x2160 at 60Hz
- This M.2 enclosure does not provide full power delivery but will provide 15W of power, resulting in a slow charge to some laptops, such as MacBook Pro. When the dock is connected to your host laptop, a charging icon may appear on the screen. This is only sufficient to charge your laptop in sleep state, and charging will require an extended time period.
- 5K support can only be achieved using a Thunderbolt 3 5K monitor. DisplayPort 5K monitors will not work at 5K with this M.2 enclosure
- A 4K-capable display is required to achieve 4K resolution (4K is also known as 4K x 2K).
- Certain monitors may be limited to 4K at 30Hz when connecting through DisplayPort. These monitors include the following models: Dell P2715Q, Viewsonic VX2475Smhl-4K, Philips 288P6LJEB, LG 31MU97C-B, and Asus PB287Q (these models must be set to 4K at 30Hz).
- When connecting a display to one of the Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports, a USB-C video adapter may be required, depending on the input of your display.
- Secondary Thunderbolt 3 port can also be used to connect USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) USB-Type C devices, such as USB 3.2 Gen 2 Hubs. Backwards compatible with USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps), and USB 2.0.
- Not Compatible with SATA Based M.2 Drives.
