One cable to rule them all!Īnd don’t forget the fantastic Thunderbolt 4 cables! Our Thunderbolt 4 cables-ranging from 0.7 to 2 meters in length-are all 100% universal for all USB-C to C uses, as well as USB4.
But otherwise, prior chipsets are designed for the highest performance to storage, PCIe slots, etc. Prior chipsets can only provide a daisy-chain port. The only thing a Thunderbolt 4 peripheral can do that wasn’t on prior Thunderbolt 3 named chipsets is add more Thunderbolt 3/4 Type-C ports. In fact, solutions like that can not be built with so-named Thunderbolt 4 chipsets today as that’s not what those chipsets are designed to be used for.
The only new chipsets to date are those that have enabled us to provide the very first Hubs and Docks that provide extra Thunderbolt ports.Įxisting Thunderbolt chipsets (and no need to call them Thunderbolt 3) are the best solution for products like our Thunderblade, Envoy Pro SX, Envoy Pro FX, Thunderbays, etc.
While Thunderbolt 4 enforces requirement standards for the host/computer offering these ports, this is still technically the same 40Gb/s Thunderbolt 3 USB-C capability we’re all familiar with. It’s been a year, why don’t we have more Thunderbolt 4 peripherals other than docks and hubs? Since the M1 Apple models could only support one display via their Thunderbolt connections, Apple was not allowed to use the Thunderbolt 4 naming. As we have talked about, Thunderbolt 4 is more a standards enforcement as opposed to being a change to speeds that we already had with even Thunderbolt 3 Intel Macs since 2016. While the M1 models are limited to a single external display via Thunderbolt, the new M1Pro and M1Max based models now support two displays over Thunderbolt. Why were M1 Macs not designated as Thunderbolt 4 compatible? There are two main issues that have come up.
