OWC unveils Thunderbolt Hub with multiple Thunderbolt 3 ports
Mike Wuerthele said:design4use said:I think this works only for devices that support Thunderbolt 4, which allows for hub topology, unlike the daisy-chaining that Thunderbolt 3 requires. Thunderbolt 4 is only released on Intel 11th gen mobile chipsets, which a few early PC ultrabooks will be shipping with.
We'll be discussing it more in December.
[Edit] Going through the order flow OWC now added a dialog that lets you select TB3 Mac and M1 Mac vs a TB4 version. -
OWC unveils Thunderbolt Hub with multiple Thunderbolt 3 ports
Mike Wuerthele said:Intel's published spec for TB3 still is explicit about no hub and spoke in TB3, so yeah.
We'll see how it goes.
For an extra fee you could overcome the 2 TB ports only restrictions on the new M1 macs which makes them inherently more useful to me!
