If you\u2019re still using a Thunderbolt 4 hub with your MacBook Pro or Mac mini, then you might want to consider upgrading to a Thunderbolt 5<\/a> hub, especially if your machine is of the newer M4 Pro\/M4 Max variety with the upgraded I\/O ports. Fortunately, our friends at CalDigit<\/a> have just the solution for anyone in this predicament.<\/p>\n

Announced just this week, CalDigit\u2019s new Element 5 Hub brings 120Gb\/s Thunderbolt 5 connectivity in the market\u2019s most compact hub package yet. Additionally, it\u2019s backwards compatible with 40Gb\/s Thunderbolt 4 and USB4-equipped devices, so you can still use it even if you have something older than Apple\u2019s latest M4 Pro\/M4 Max-equipped Macs.<\/p>\n

CalDigit markets the Element 5 Hub has a no-compromise hub that features high-performance ports. You get 9 total ports as a mixture of both USB-A ports operating at 10Gb\/s and 7.5W of power and Thunderbolt 5\/USB-C<\/a> ports operating between 140Gb\/s and 40Gb\/s and between 7.5W and 90W of power.<\/p>\n

Citing CalDigit, the Element 5 Hub is ideal for external storage devices because it provides up to 6,200MB\/s performance, giving it the throughput it needs to handle multiple high-speed solid-state drives at the same time, harboring SD Card readers, or managing RAID storage<\/a> devices.<\/p>\n

The incredible throughout also unlocks multi-display support, with the ability to run dual displays on Macs with the M4 series chips or a single display with M3 series or older chips. If you\u2019re a Windows<\/a> user, and your host computer supports Thunderbolt 5, then you may be able to get away with up to three external displays. You can even use the Element 5 Hub with iPads, iPhones, and other compatible tablets.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the 90W power supply provided at the main computer Thunderbolt 5 port, you can keep your MacBook Pro\u2019s power brick put away. This dock not only brings powerful I\/O to your desk, but also keeps your computer powered as you use it. CalDigit also claims that the Element 5 Hub will work with Apple\u2019s SuperDrive thanks to a custom driver, even though many hubs do not support the Apple SuperDrive.<\/p>\n

Not only is the Element 5 Hub compact, buts its power supply is also particularly compact. Punching in at 30W more power than the Element 4 Hub, the Element 5 Hub\u2019s power supply manages to be 42% smaller, which means it\u2019s easier to manage at your workstation.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re interested in a CalDigit Element 5 Hub for your workspace, then you can head over to the company\u2019s website<\/a> where you can learn more about it and pick one up for the special 17% off launch sale price of $249.95 (normally $299.95).<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
