There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The things that I have plugged into the dock:
- DP to mini DP adapter (so that my existing mini DP cable can be plugged in)
- Ethernet cable
- USB switch (for my external keyboard and mouse that gets shared with my home PC)
- USB microphone (for better video conferencing)
The HDMI port is unused, so I cannot say if it works, but you can only use either the DP or HDMI, not both, which is to be expected, since it is mentioned in the product description.
To get the Ethernet adapter to work, I had to install a new driver for Catalina (OS X 10.15). The driver may not work on the next OS upgrade, but my company is likely to issue me a new laptop at that point. I used the one from Pluggable, since I could not find a suitable driver to download from Gofanco's website.
It would have been nice if I did not have to burn both the Thunderbolt 2 and the USB 3 port for the dock, but I think it is using both ports to draw enough power to the device. On my office desk, the company IT issued a powered Belkin dock that only uses the Thunderbolt 2 port, but it also costs 5 times more than what I paid for this product.
P.S. I used it with a mid 2012 macbook pro and the attachments were 22 inch full hd monitor, 75hz ( the macbook could only achieve 60Hz/59.9Hz though) a mechanical keyboard, and a wired mouse (razer viper).

Does work
モニタとLANとUSB機器をThunderbolt2でまとめたくて購入しました。
接続すれば機能はします。
悪かった点としてUSB機器の認識が安定せず、外付けHDDなどは何かの拍子で認識エラーになるとMac自体を再起動しないと再認識しません。これはMacOS側にも根本的な問題があるのかもしれませんが。
またディスプレイポートに至ってはノイズがのるので全く使いものになりませんでした。
HDMIでの使用であれば使えます。
が、結局中古でBelkinのドックを買ってそちらを使用しています。
こちらも色々問題ありますが本商品より安定して使用できます。
