Q: QuestionIs the USB 4 a thunderbolt connection?

Asked 4 months ago by Smokey.

• A:Answer The USB4 Triple 4K Display Docking Station is not a Thunderbolt dock, but it is compatible with Thunderbolt 3 and Thunderbolt 4 ports. You can connect it to a Thunderbolt laptop, and it will function properly, leveraging high-speed data, video, and power delivery. It won’t provide Thunderbolt-exclusive features, like daisy-chaining Thunderbolt displays or ultra-low latency native PCIe data transfer.

Q: QuestionCan I use this to switch between my laptop and PC?

Asked 3 months ago by Buzz.

• A:Answer The JCD554 USB4 Triple 4K Display Docking Station is not designed to function as a KVM switch (keyboard, video, mouse switch). That means you can’t use it to toggle between a laptop and a desktop PC with one set of monitors, keyboard, and mouse. The dock is meant to connect one host computer at a time via USB-C/USB4/Thunderbolt, and then expand that connection to multiple displays and peripherals.

Q: QuestionDoes this device work with MacBook Air M2 chip

Asked 6 months ago by JOE.

• A:Answer Yes, the USB4 Triple 4K Display Docking Station does work with the MacBook Air with M2 chip, but with important limitations due to macOS display support. Apple's macOS only supports one external display natively on the MacBook Air M2, even if the dock supports more. If you want multiple external displays on a MacBook Air M2, you’d need to use a driver-based dock or adapter, which requires installing a driver.
