Please note that while the USB-C cable is compatible with the TB3 port, it will not support full TB3 speeds. Lock slots allow you to protect your investment with a Kensington cable lock, sold separately (K65020WW or K64444WW). Part of the power of docking stations is that they essentially let you turn one port on your computer into multiple ports.

System Requirements: Compatible with Windows 10 or alter laptops equipped with Thunderbolt™ 4 and backward compatibility with Thunderbolt™ 3, USB4, and USB-C devices running Windows 10 or later, or macOS 11 or later. The big selling point of the Kensington SD4900P is that it supports triple displays, and at 4K resolution. If you are willing to accept dual display output, there are many alternatives that offer better value for money and those with Thunderbolt 3 are less bandwidth compromised. If you have one or two external displays that are not 4K (the dock maxes out at 2K) you'll be able to connect both and enjoy a 60Hz refresh rate. To achieve faster charging, you should plug in your mobile device before plugging the dock into the PC.If you want each port on the dock to run like it would if it was on the laptop then you need to invest in a Thunderbolt 3 dock that can give you the bandwidth to run screens and have high-speed peripherals at the same time.

This will still be sufficient, in most cases, to keep the PC running without draining the charge on the battery. If your laptop doesn't have Thunderbolt 3 and you're not using 4K displays, it should make a great docking solution. The drawback of that option is that each display you add eats into the available bandwidth, and if you use all three screens then there won’t be much left for other uses. One thing to note, though: the SD4700P doesn’t support Thunderbolt 3 devices, which need a special Thunderbolt port.It won't handle 4K, and it's a shame there's no vertical stand option to go along with the clever VESA mounting option, which would help with the footprint the SD4700P commands on your desktop.
