Kensington has just launched a docking station that could change the game for professionals and tech enthusiasts. According to a press release sent to Lifewire, the SD5000T5 EQ Thunderbolt 5 Triple 4K Docking Station is the first Intel-certified Thunderbolt 5 dock ready to handle serious workloads with incredible speed and versatility.

The SD5000T5 dock is designed for people who need to connect more, faster. It can support up to three 4K monitors or even dual 8K displays, and it’s built to handle intense visual tasks, making it a perfect tool for content creators, gamers, and anyone using premium laptops. Data transfer speeds top out at 120 Gbps, so moving large files is quick and easy, and the dock also provides 140W of power—enough to keep even the most power-hungry devices going strong.

This dock doesn’t just work with the latest Thunderbolt 5 laptops either. It’s compatible with Thunderbolt 4, USB4, and USB-C devices, making it a versatile option for Windows and macOS users alike. The 11-in-1 design includes plenty of ports—three Thunderbolt 5 downstream, one Thunderbolt 5 host, three USB-A (3.2 Gen 2), an audio jack, and 2.5 Gbps Ethernet—so there’s space for all your accessories and peripherals without needing any extra adapters.

Kensington designed this dock for plug-and-play simplicity. There’s no need to install software; just connect your devices, and you’re ready to go. The two built-in card readers help professionals like graphic designers and video editors transfer files quickly, and the dock’s small footprint keeps your workspace neat, with optional security locks (sold separately) to prevent theft.

The Kensington SD5000T5 is now available across North America through online retailers, including Amazon, and it comes with a three-year limited warranty.
