Have an old VGA monitor you want to repurpose as an external display for a Thunderbolt 3-equipped Mac? This is the dock for you. A single connection provides wired Ethernet, dual displays (DisplayPort and 15-pin VGA or HDMI), and a pair of fast-charge USB-A 3.0 ports.
It’s a bit expensive considering there are only eight ports – there’s no SD card slots or audio output, and no support for USB-C equipped iPads; this is strictly Thunderbolt only. At 58.6mm deep, StarTech’s unit is a little narrower than its competitors here, and a bit tidier when it comes to cable management since the dock’s sole Thunderbolt port is on the front.
VERDICT
