The Most Compact Thunderbolt 5 Hub
The CalDigit Element 5 Hub (E5) is a truly unique device. It features more ports than any other Thunderbolt hub. It does this while also maintaining the exact same compact size as the previous Thunderbolt 4 Element Hub. With a wide selection of powerful ports, it is an ideal solution for expanding workflows, while taking up minimal desk space. Even though the device is compact, it includes features found in high-end docks, such as 90W of consistent host charging, up to 120Gb/s connectivity, and support for up to 3 displays on supported Windows Thunderbolt 5 PCs. Connect what you need, when you need.
Not Your Average Hub
Traditional USB hubs are mostly equipped with low performing ports, or ports with insufficient power delivery in order to keep your devices charged. The Element 5 Hub allows you to have both great performance, and consistent power, thanks to the up to 120Gb/s throughput of Thunderbolt 5.
Total Compatibility
When you have such a powerful hub you also need the flexibility to use it with any device. The Element 5 Hub is compatible with Thunderbolt 5, Thunderbolt 4, Thunderbolt 3 Macs, USB4, USB4 v2, and USB-C devices. This also includes USB-C or Thunderbolt iPads, iPhones, Windows tablets and more.
Thunderbolt 5
The benefit of a Thunderbolt 5 hub is that you can connect many types of devices to it. The Element 5 Hub features 3 downstream Thunderbolt 5 ports that can connect to monitors, fast external storage, and more. The 15W performance of the downstream Thunderbolt 5 ports means you can charge and power devices much faster than USB hubs.
Define Your Connectivity
The simplicity of the Element 5 Hub's four Thunderbolt 5 ports allows you to create the hub that you want. Don't be confined by pre-built hubs. Use the Thunderbolt 5 ports to connect what you want. Need to connect multiple SSDs, SD card readers, RAID storage, triple 4K monitors? No problem. The Element 5 Hub is a blank canvas ready to be populated with the devices you need.
Faster than Your Average Hub
The Thunderbolt 5 ports on the Element 5 Hub provide up to 6,200MB/s performance for your external storage devices, which is double that of Thunderbolt 4, and much higher than typical USB hubs.
Versatile USB Ports
The versatility of having both USB-C and USB-A ports offers great convenience. All of the USB ports on the Element 5 Hub offer 10Gb/s performance, and 7.5W of power. This is an ideal option for connecting high performance USB-C SSDs to the hub. Don't forget that you can also connect USB-C devices to the Thunderbolt 5 ports.
Connect up to Triple or Quad Displays
Thunderbolt 5 allows for 3 external monitors to be connected to a Thunderbolt 5 host computer that supports triple displays, such as the MacBook Pro with M5 Pro. With an M5 Max, the Element 5 Hub can even support up to 4 external monitors from a single connection by either directly connecting 3 displays, and daisy-chaining the 4th display, or by connecting one display and adding 3 more to the daisy-chain.
Bandwidth Boost
When you connect bandwidth intensive monitors to the Element 5 Hub it will enable Bandwidth Boost in order to prioritize displays, and provide up to 120Gb/s performance. This will then keep 40Gb/s for the rest of the dock. The great thing about this is that it will allow for higher refresh rate displays to be connected to the device, as well as three 4K 60Hz displays on Windows Thunderbolt 5 PCs.
Single, Dual, Triple or Quad Displays
Whether you need a high-resolution display, a high-refresh rate display, or up to 4 external displays, the Element 5 Hub has you covered.
