Thunderbolt 4 connectivity

This docking station provides three Thunderbolt 4 ports for high-speed data transfer and display output. It also includes three USB-A 3.1 Gen 2 ports for legacy peripherals. A 2.5G Ethernet LAN port and a 3.5mm audio jack complete the wired interface selection. The unit is finished in black and listed as new condition.

Professionals needing multi-display support

The dock supports 4K 3840 x 2160 resolution at 60 Hz for external monitors. It suits users who require a single-cable connection for power, data and video on compatible devices. Buyers whose laptops lack Thunderbolt 4 capability will not gain the described bandwidth or display performance from this unit. Those needing more than three downstream Thunderbolt connections should consider alternative solutions.

Three Thunderbolt 4 ports

The defining specification is the count of three Thunderbolt 4 ports on a single dock. This determines how many high-bandwidth devices or displays can be attached simultaneously without daisy-chaining. Verify that the host system supports Thunderbolt 4 to utilise the full 40 Gbps potential per port. The 2.5G Ethernet and USB-A 3.1 Gen 2 ports provide additional connectivity for wired networks and standard USB accessories.

The dock has no fan and operates silently during continuous use.

Which ports must my laptop already provide for the Microsoft Surface Thunderbolt 4 Dock T8I-00001 to function?

Your laptop needs a Thunderbolt 4 port to connect the single upstream cable that carries video, data and power.

Will the Microsoft Surface Thunderbolt 4 Dock T8I-00001 drive my older 4K 60 Hz monitor at 3840 x 2160 resolution?

Yes, each Thunderbolt 4 port supports 4K 3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz, so an older 4K 60 Hz display works at its native resolution.
