The Element Hub is another fantastic docking solution made by CalDigit, which holds a number of spots in our best laptop docking station roundup. For now, browse CalDigit's official site for best results.
When connected to the host laptop, the dock can deliver up to 98W of power.Īvailability is spotty due to the dock's popularity. The dock supports dual 4K display each at a 60Hz refresh rate or an 8K display at a 60Hz refresh rate. The front of the dock has another USB-A port, a 3.5mm audio combination, dual USB-C ports (one with 20W of charging power), and UHS-II SD and microSD card readers that can be used simultaneously.
A Kensington lock slot is great for use in an office. The back of the dock otherwise has four USB-A (10Gbps), 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, USB-C (10Gbps), and dual 3.5mm audio ports in and out. Why not four total TB4 ports? One was sacrificed for a native DisplayPort 1.4 hookup. The 18 total ports are split between the front and the back of the dock, with the host Thunderbolt 4 port and the other two downstream Thunderbolt 4 ports on the back. The TS4 has the most ports of any Thunderbolt 4 dock currently on the market. It has a rubber pad on the bottom for a vertical orientation, and further rubber feet can be added to the ribbed sides if you'd like to use it horizontally. It follows a similar design as the TS3 Plus, with three solid aluminum pieces held together with four robust screws. I've been using the dock regularly since my CalDigit TS4 review, and I can still say it's the pinnacle of modern docking.
The CalDigit TS4 Thunderbolt 4 docking station is a follow-up to the awesome CalDigit TS3 Plus.
