OWCThunderbolt mini Dock, Bus-Powered 5-Port Multi-Adapter with Dual 4K HDMI, Dual USB, Gigabit Ethernet, Integrated 7.2-inch TB Cable, for TB (USB-C) Equipped Mac and PC

a great attachment for my mac mini.

On a Macbook, it just works. I ordered this adapter after reading about it on a Mac forum. Somebody there recommended this particular 2-port HDMI adapter as the cheapest one that works right with MacOS. Someone had tried a bunch of different ones. MacOS seems quite finicky about extending the desktop to dual monitors.Had ordered a cheaper unit first, but returned it. That unit worked fine for mirror mode and would extend to one monitor. However, monitor #3 would only mirror monitor #2, not extend as it should. If you goggle, you with find that the third monitor not showing in the MacOS settings is a common problem with other 2-port HDMI adapters. I didn't know this and lost time figuring it out. After getting the right adapter, was relieved it works.Having three screens is great! Now I wish for 4 screens....

Update - The mini dock kept making me reboot each time I wanted 2 monitors -worked great until the computer went into sleep or was unplugged when I went from my home office to the living room. When I returned it would not work. I suspect it was an Apple issue as when I put 13.4 OS on , even after a reboot, it would not work. Back to using the included HDMI port and an Anker mini dock with HDMI again. Wish I could use it. But not with the Mac I have.After dealing with a Rube Golberg type setup with an Anker USBc HDMI converter for one monitor and plugging the other into the included HDMI port and then having another for USB A and none for Ethernet (Parer from the magnet port) - I bought this. Boom both LG 4K monitors worked after plugging in and Ethernet is fast (980 MB/sec) and the USBA camera works great. And all at a reasonable price. No tech setup - just plug-n-go!<Update - after having this dock for a week>. THis is not a good dock for pugging in and having it all work, and unplugging and having to come back - without rebooting. Still working with OWC Support, but Apple does not make it easy to have two monitors. I still like the 60 hertz for both monitors, and the ethernet stays pegged at 990 mbs. So when it works, it is bester than by old solution, but plugging in after rebooting makes it less that satisfying for me overall.

I've been using the OWC Thunderbolt Mini Dock with my 2023 M2 Pro MacBook Pro, and I must say it's largely been an excellent experience. The dual HDMI outputs are a significant highlight, effectively driving my two displays – one at 4K 60Hz and the other at 1080p 144Hz – with no noticeable hitches. The compact design of the dock is also perfect for minimalistic setups or for those who are frequently on-the-go.However, a word of caution for potential buyers: while the dock has two USB ports, I'd advise against connecting USB hubs to them. In my experience, doing so can lead to some unexpected behavior or reduced functionality. The dock seems best suited for direct device connections.In conclusion, if you're looking for a reliable and efficient way to connect multiple displays and a couple of USB devices directly, this dock is a solid choice. Just steer clear of plugging in hubs, and you should have a smooth experience!

It does work, and has been a great help. Just seems the connections are finicky. Ya' gotta' hold yer mouth just right.

I used this to send 4k video feeds to 2 additional monitors to pair with the regular hdmi out port, and at the same time used the Ethernet connection, all for immersive experiences and hybrid events. Zero hiccups. You can even run an audio interface through it if you like and because of the high bandwidth of thunderbolt most likely expect to have no issues. I don't generally do that but I tested it for a while and it seemed to work. An essential piece of my production.

The item arrived on time and works as advertised.

I purchased one of these a while back to run a dual monitor set-up with my macbook and it worked well. So I had no worries about purchasing another to duplicate the setup at my office. However, the 2nd one has been plagued with issues from the start. Even though I have the same hardware in the office as at home, my mouse and keyboard only work intermittently and sometimes won't connect at all. It also gets hot and will disconnect from my monitors if the hub gets moved/jostled at all. I feel like it's got a 50/50 shot at working the way it's supposed to - which is disappointing for the price.
