The dock combines 22 ports with a 5-inch touchscreen and a rotating metal
dial to control connected displays and check system status. The dock's Thunderbolt 5 connection is rated at up to 80 Gbps by default, with a boost mode that pushes that bandwidth to 120 Gbps in one direction. Latest Videos From TechRadar Watch full video here: A desk hub built around high-speed

Video output comes through Thunderbolt connections alongside DisplayPort 2.1 or HDMI 2.1, although those latter outputs share the same video path.

The unit also accepts Type B CFexpress, SD 4.0 and microSD 4.0 cards, giving camera users several ways to move footage.

An internal M.2 storage slot supports PCIe Gen 4 x2, with advertised transfer rates reaching 3,600 MB/s when suitable hardware is installed. Are you a pro? Subscribe to our newsletter Sign up to the TechRadar Pro newsletter to get

The storage drive is not included, so buyers would need to supply their own compatible SSD for that internal bay.

Network transfers can use 10GbE, while multiple USB ports provide connections for accessories, drives, phones, tablets and other desk equipment.

On the rear, this device has two slower USB-A ports, two faster USB-A ports, five USB-C sockets, audio, Ethernet, display outputs, and charging.

The front carries the camera card readers, a headphone socket, and two USB-C connections that share their 45W power allocation, though the power delivery reaches 140W for a connected laptop .

Its compatibility covers macOS and Windows, while the dock also works with Thunderbolt and USB4 devices when their supported features allow it. A screen and cooling add more hardware The 5-inch display is intended to show information about connected equipment, power use, temperatures, transfer rates, and other operating details.

A rotary control beside the screen lets users move through interface options, while taps on the display provide access to additional information.

The company says full dashboard functions require its desktop application, making the screen less independent than a simple hardware status panel.

Active cooling combines a fan, metal heat transfer parts and directed
airflow, with thermal information also shown through the display.

The package includes the dock, power supply, three regional AC leads, an SSD fitting kit, a Thunderbolt 5 cable and manual.

Lexar has not listed the NVMe drive as part of the package, despite making internal storage expansion one of the dock's main features.

The company is preparing the product for Kickstarter, where the advertised early price is $479 against a regular $649 MSRP.
