Big on Ports

Delivering 15 ports, all of which can be used at the same time, this dock packs all the ports most of us would ever need.

Get Connected

The TS5 is compatible with Thunderbolt 5, Thunderbolt 4, Thunderbolt 3, USB4, USB4 v2, and USB-C host computers.

140W Power Delivery

The TS5 provides up to 140W power delivery for even the most demanding laptops. This makes it ideal for laptops like the 16" MacBook Pro with M4 Pro or M4 Max chips which require 140W.

Thunderbolt 5

The TS5 features four 80Gb/s bi-directional Thunderbolt 5 ports, which are double the performance of Thunderbolt 4.

The PCIe performance of the the Thunderbolt ports have been doubled from the previous generation to 64Gb/s PCIe 4.0. This is ideal if you are intending on connecting high performance SSDs or RAID devices to the TS5. This powerful dock will support transfer speeds up to 6,200MB/s.

5 Powerful USB Ports

The TS5 features 5 USB ports in order to attach multiple accessories to the dock*.

Four of the USB ports on the TS5 offer 10Gb/s performance, and one of the USB-A ports provides USB 2.0 performance for keyboards or mice.

20W USB-C Port

One of the the front-facing USB-C ports features 20W in order to provide more power for accessories.

This is ideal for devices that require more than 7.5W of USB power such as an iPhone, Apple Watch, and iPad Pro.

Single, Dual, or Three Displays

Whether you need a high-resolution display, a high-refresh rate display, or up to 3 external displays, the TS5 has you covered.

Bandwidth Boost

When you connect bandwidth intensive monitors to the TS5 it will enable Bandwidth Boost in order to prioritize displays, and provide up to 120Gb/s performance. This will then keep 40Gb/s for the rest of the dock.

The great thing about this is that it will allow for higher refresh rate displays to be connected to the TS5, as well as three 4K 144Hz displays.

2.5 Gigabit Ethernet

The TS5 features a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port for outstanding performance.*

2.5GbE is 2.5x faster than traditional Gigabit Ethernet, and is becoming the new standard for routers, switches, and NAS devices.*

Of course you can use the 2.5GbE port on the TS5 with traditional 1GbE Ethernet devices.

SD & microSD 4.0 UHS-II

The TS5 features both microSD and SD card readers on the front of the device for easy access. Both ports offer UHS-II performance and can be used at the same time.

8 Offline Charging Ports

All of the USB 10Gb/s ports and all of the Thunderbolt ports on the TS5 provide offline charging. 8 Ports in total.

This function allows those specific ports the ability to charge your USB devices, such as phones and tablets, even when the TS5 is not connected to a host device.

Apple SuperDrive

Devices such as the Apple SuperDrive are recommended by Apple to be directly connected to a laptop as they require extra power. CalDigit has developed a driver for the SuperDrive so that it can be directly connected to the TS5.
