Belkin’s back in the Mac peripheral management game with the Thunderbolt 2 Express Dock HD with Cable ($300). This new dock lets users plug in up to eight devices to take advantage of fast Thunderbolt 2 technology: this time, it transfers files at up to 20 Gbps, doubling the performance of Belkin’s last Thunderbolt dock, and quadrupling the speed of USB 3.0. A slim, lightweight dock with a brushed aluminum body, Belkin’s new dock also comes with a Thunderbolt cable, as its name implies.
Thunderbolt 2 Express Dock HD with Cable supports dual displays, including 4K cinema resolution. In addition to allowing eight devices to connect directly to the dock, up to four additional Thunderbolt devices can be daisy chained to the dock, as well. It’s compatible with the iMac, Mac Pro, Mac mini, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, MacBook Pro with Retina Display, and any PC laptops with a Thunderbolt/Thunderbolt 2 port.
