Style: TS5 Plus
Features
- 20 Ports of Extreme Connectivity - Featuring next-level connectivity, the TS5 Plus has more than enough ports for any workflow. The TS5 Plus includes 3x 80Gb/s Thunderbolt 5 ports, 5x USB-A 10Gb/s ports, 5x USB-C 10Gb/s ports, DisplayPort 2.1, SD 4.0 & microSD 4.0 UHS-II card readers, 10Gb Ethernet, and 3 x audio ports. Thunderbolt 5 supports 64Gb/s PCIe which is ideal for connecting ultra-fast Thunderbolt SSDs to the TS5 Plus.
- More Power than Ever - The TS5 Plus host charging port provides up to 140W of dedicated power delivery, ideal for laptops such as the 16 M3/M4/M5 Pro & Max series MacBook Pro which charges at 140W. The TS5 Plus includes a 330W power supply which allows sustained power delivery at all times for the host charging port as well as all remaining ports. The downstream Thunderbolt 5 ports and one of the front USB-C ports can provide up to 36W of dedicated power delivery for charging accessories, *Thunderbolt/USB-C port on host device must support PD for charging support (check with manufacturer). Desktop computers such as Mac Mini cannot be powered over USB-C and must use supplied AC adapter.
- Flexible Display Configurations - The TS5 Plus on macOS devices can connect up to Dual 6K 60Hz displays, or even Dual 8K 60Hz displays on Macs that support those resolutions. The TS5 Plus supports high-refresh rates at up to Dual 4K 240Hz. On Windows, the TS5 Plus supports up to dual 6K 60Hz on Thunderbolt 4 hosts, and up to Dual 8K 60Hz on Thunderbolt 5 hosts. Thunderbolt 5 Windows users can also connect up to Triple 4K 144Hz displays on supported Windows Thunderbolt 5 hosts (macOS does not support Triple displays).*Check with your manufacturer to see how many displays your computer supports.
- 10 Gigabit Ethernet - The TS5 Plus seamlessly integrates powerful 10GbE workflows with ease. 10GbE is 10X faster than traditional 1GbE found on the majority of docking stations. Users can connect to ultra fast 10GbE networks in order to transfer files faster than ever, or connect to 10GbE equipped NAS storage devices. The 10GbE port is backwards compatible with 1GbE, 2.5GbE, and 5GbE. *Ethernet is only supported on Thunderbolt based hosts as well as USB4 hosts that support PCIe.
- Dual USB Controllers - A unique feature of the TS5 Plus is that it includes Dual USB Controllers. This means that the ports on the front of the dock have one 10Gb/s USB controller for all of the attached devices, and the rear ports have a second 10Gb/s controller for the devices on the back ports. This avoids any bottlenecks when multiple high speed USB devices are connected, and is an ideal feature to complement the total of 10x USB ports on the dock.
- Compatibility - The TS5 Plus is compatible with Thunderbolt and USB4 host devices. To get the maximum performance out of the TS5 Plus a Thunderbolt 5 (80Gb/s) or USB4 v2 (80Gb/s) host connection is required. Users on Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4, or USB4 hosts will see reduced functionality. The TS5 Plus also supports Thunderbolt based tablet devices. *The TS5 Plus does not support non-Thunderbolt based host devices.
- 80Gb/s Performance & 120Gb/s Bandwidth Boost - The TS5 Plus offers unparalleled 80Gb/s performance when transmitting and receiving files. This makes it ideal for the unmatched 20 ports of connectivity this dock delivers. When users connect ultra high-refresh rate displays to the TS5 Plus, this device will shift its allocation and provide up to 120Gb/s to the displays without the user ever thinking about it.
- Aluminum Heat Sink Chassis - The TS5 Plus' beautifully crafted aluminum chassis is designed as an external heat sink to dissipate heat generated by the large amount of power it provides. This function has been meticulously tested to ensure the safety of the device and the user. We recommend providing ample clearance around the TS5 Plus to increase the surface area for efficient heat dissipation ensuring optimal performance.
- ***Windows users must install the 10 Gigabit Ethernet Driver. Please visit our website to download and install the driver
Description
Established in 2006, CalDigit started out designing premium external storage solutions for creative professionals. As the industry shifted to the newly introduced Thunderbolt connector in 2011, CalDigit realized the importance that Thunderbolt would bring to workflows worldwide, and we began work on what would become our first docking station – the Thunderbolt Station. Pushing the Limits of Connectivity Over a decade after the original Thunderbolt Station redefined what was possible via a single connection, the TS5 Plus has built on previous generations to offer the ultimate docking station experience. Powered by the latest Thunderbolt 5 technology, the TS5 Plus expands Mac and PC workflows with the most advanced port selection ever included on a Thunderbolt dock. The TS5 Plus features an 80Gb/s bi-directional Thunderbolt 5 ports. The PCIe performance of the the Thunderbolt ports have been doubled from the previous generation to 64Gb/s PCIe 4.0. This is ideal for connecting high-performance SSDs or RAID devices, supporting transfer speeds up to 6,200MB/s. The TS5 Plus supplies up to 140W of power, supporting high-performance laptops such as the 16″ MacBook Pro with M3/M4 Pro or Max chips. It maintains a constant 140W to the host device, even when new devices are added. For lower-power devices, it smartly adjusts to supply only what’s needed. *Thunderbolt/USB-C host device and port must support PD for charging. Check specifications below for more info. The TS5 Plus features a 36W front-facing USB-C post that supports even the most power-hungry USB-C devices. Both rear Thunderbolt 5 ports also offer 36W each, more than double the 15W from previous generation. This ensures fast charging for devices like the iPad Pro, which only requires 20W. At the time, the CalDigit TS4 was the first Thunderbolt 4 dock to include a 2.5GbE port, and with the TS5 Plus we are going 4x better by including a 10GbE port.* 10 Gigabit Ethernet offers 10x the performance of traditional 1GbE found in many docking stations, with a data rate of up to 10 billion bits per second. Traditionally, if you wanted to use 10GbE with a laptop, you would have needed to buy an external Thunderbolt to 10GbE Adapter. This functionality is now built in, saving you time, and valuable desk space. Of course you can use the 10GbE port on the TS5 Plus with 5GbE, 2.5GbE, and 1GbE devices. *Ethernet is only supported on Thunderbolt based hosts as well as USB4 hosts that support PCIe. Please contact your USB4 host manufacturers for PCIe support information. Dual USB Controllers The TS5 Plus is a unique device, and this is ultimately demonstrated by being the only dock with dual USB controllers*. Traditional Thunderbolt docks feature a single USB controller that all of the USB, and Thunderbolt ports on the dock share. The TS5 Plus’ dual controllers allow the dock to provide two individual 10Gb/s controllers for increased bandwidth to connected devices. This is a great solution for anyone adding multiple high bandwidth USB devices to their dock. *The second USB controller is only supported on Thunderbolt based hosts, as well as USB4 hosts that support PCIe. Please contact your USB4 host manufacturer for PCIe support information. Single Monitor If you’re looking to add a single monitor to the TS5 Plus you can connect it to one of the spare Thunderbolt 5 ports or to the DisplayPort connector. If you wish to connect an HDMI monitor you can use a USB-C to HDMI Adapter or Active DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter ***. Dual Monitors ✔ macOS users on base M4, M1/M2/M3/M4 Pro, M1/M2/M3/M4 Max, M1/M2/M3 Ultra, or Intel based Macs can connect up to dual displays. ✘ M1/M2/M3 based Macs are limited to 1 external monitor by design via their Thunderbolt ports. ✔ Windows PC Thunderbolt 5 and Thunderbolt 4 users can connect up to dual displays. Triple Monitors ✘ macOS users on M1-M4 Pro / Max do not support Triple monitors via a Thunderbolt Dock. ✔ macOS users on M5 Max and M5 Pro can connect up to three displays. ✔ Windows PC Thunderbolt 5 users can connect up to three displays on supported host computers. ✘ Windows PC Thunderbolt 4 users cannot connect three displays natively. Quad Monitors ✔ macOS users on M5 Max can connect up to four displays. * Dual 5K monitors must be Thunderbolt 4 or Apple Studio Displays. Dual LG UltraFine 5K monitors are not supported. 6K monitors can be a Thunderbolt 4 monitor or an Apple Pro Display XDR. DSC (Display Stream Compression) support is required for 6K and 8K resolutions. ** Higher refresh-rates (above 60Hz) may require DSC (Display Stream Compression) support on the monitors and host GPU. The bit/color depth may vary in order to support higher refresh-rates. *** Some M3 MacBooks such as the MacBook Air can support dual external monitors up to 5K and 6K when the laptop lid is closed (clamshell mode). **** Currently M1/2/3/4 Macs can only support up to HDMI 2.0b over its Thunderbolt ports. As such, resolutions will be limited to 4K 60Hz when using an HDMI adapter. If a higher refresh-rate is required, please use a USB-C to USB-C or USB-C to DisplayPort or DisplayPort to DisplayPort connection. For more information about a Mac’s external display support please Apple's or CalDigit's support webpages. ***** Results may vary due to OS updates. For external display compatibility over a single Thunderbolt connection on different Windows computers, please refer to the manufacturer’s website.
