Guide & know-how
USB-C hubs and Thunderbolt docking stations at RPD — for anyone who finds the single USB-C port on the MacBook or laptop too limiting. Our USB-C 7-in-1 hubs deliver HDMI 4K60Hz + 2× USB-A + USB-C data port + Ethernet + SD/microSD reader + USB-C PD passthrough for 100 W charging. For pros: Thunderbolt 4 docks with 40 Gbps, display daisy-chain for 2 × 4K or 1 × 8K, 96–98 W PD and PCIe tunnel. Ideal for MacBook M-Series, iPad Pro/Air and modern Windows laptops. Same-day dispatch from Basel by 4 pm, free above CHF 15. 2-year Swiss warranty, invoice payment available (credit check by Powerpay).
USB-C hubs (from CHF 35) are compact, mobile and deliver 5–10 Gbps data. Ideal for travel, hot-desk and standard office. Thunderbolt 4 docks (from CHF 250) deliver 40 Gbps, drive multiple 4K screens or one 8K and charge at 96 W. Ideal for stationary power workflows — MacBook Pro with 2 × 4K monitors plus external NVMe SSD and Ethernet.
Watch the display protocol: HDMI 2.0 = 4K30Hz / 1080p120Hz, HDMI 2.1 = 4K120Hz / 8K60Hz, DisplayPort 1.4 = 4K60Hz with HDR or 2 × 4K via DSC. MacBook caveat: Apple Silicon M1/M2 (base) only supports 1 external display, M1/M2 Pro/Max + M3/M4 support multiple — a Thunderbolt dock splits them out.
External SSD: USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) is enough for 1 GB/s, Thunderbolt 4 (40 Gbps) for 3+ GB/s with NVMe. Ethernet: 1 Gbit is standard, 2.5 Gbit is worthwhile with a 10-Gbit switch and fast NAS.
Hubs with USB-C PD passthrough route power from the external adapter to the laptop. Note: about 15 W is lost to the hub itself. With a 100 W adapter, around 85 W reaches your MacBook — perfect for MacBook Pro 14″ standard load.
