Lenovo Thunderbolt 4 Workstation Dock docking station compatibility

Resolution

The Lenovo Thunderbolt 4 Workstation Dock docking station provides docking connections using Thunderbolt 4 (Type-C) technology. On the back of the docking station there are multiple ports for connecting other devices. In addition to the AC power in connection, the back of the device has the following ports available: 3 USB-A 3.2 , 2 DisplayPort 1.4, 1 HDMI 2.1, 1 RJ 45/Ethernet port, 1 device Thunderbolt port, and 1 combo Thunderbolt 3/power that is used to connect to the computer. On the front of the dock there are three ports available: 1 USB-C 3.2, 1 USB-C / Thunderbolt for data transfers, and 1 3.5 mm Stereo/Microphone combo.

To be fully compatible, the dock must provide adequate power for the device and successfully work with 2 monitors, a mouse, keyboard, and networking. While the following MiWorkspace recommended and supported PC laptops are compatible with this dock, the dock power button only works with the Lenovo laptops:

  • HP EliteBooks 840 G5, 850 G5, 840 G6, and 850 G6
  • Dell Latitudes 5410, 5420, 5430, 5440, 5450, 5520, 5530, 5540, 5550, 7350 (standard and detachable), 7400, 9410, 9420, 9430, 9440
  • Lenovo ThinkPads T14 Gen3, T14 Gen 3 and X13 Yoga Gen 3

The following MiWorkspace recommended and supported PC laptops are not compatible because of power issues. This Lenovo dock delivers 230W power to devices with attached power plug (Lenovo ThinkPad P1 G5/G6), but only 90W to Thunderbolt/USB-C devices. The following laptops cannot be reliably used with this dock and attempting to do so is not recommended or supported:

  • Dell Precisions 5550, 5560, 5570, 5680, 5690, and 7680
