Frequently Asked Questions - HB-TBT4 Sabrent

Is the Sabrent HB-TBT4 compatible with Thunderbolt 3 laptops?
Yes, the HB-TBT4 is backward compatible with Thunderbolt 3 devices, though you'll get Thunderbolt 3 speeds (up to 40 Gbps) and features.
Can I use the HB-TBT4 with a USB-C laptop that doesn't support Thunderbolt?
Yes, but limited to USB-C features: data transfer up to 10 Gbps and DisplayPort Alt Mode for video. Thunderbolt-specific functions (e.g., daisy chaining, high-speed PCIe) won't work.
Does the HB-TBT4 support charging my laptop?
Yes, it can deliver up to 60W Power Delivery to the host laptop when connected to an optional power adapter. Without external power, it provides only bus-powered functions.
How many external monitors can I connect?
You can connect up to two 4K@60Hz monitors or one 8K@60Hz monitor via the two Thunderbolt 4 downstream ports or through the USB-C/DP ports.
Does it include a Thunderbolt cable?
Yes, the package includes a 0.8 meter Thunderbolt 4 cable for host connection.
Can I daisy chain multiple Thunderbolt 4 devices?
Yes, you can daisy chain up to 6 Thunderbolt 4 devices (including the hub) from a single Thunderbolt 4 port on your computer.
Is the HB-TBT4 compatible with MacBooks (Apple Silicon or Intel)?
Yes, it works with MacBooks with Thunderbolt 4/3 or USB4 ports, including M1, M2, M3, and Intel models. For Intel Macs, you may need to install drivers for full functionality.
Does the hub get hot under load?
The aluminum alloy casing acts as a heat sink. It may become warm to the touch during heavy use, but this is normal and within safe operating temperatures.
Can I use the downstream Thunderbolt ports for storage devices?
Absolutely. The downstream ports support Thunderbolt 4 SSDs at full speed (up to 40 Gbps) and also work with USB-C and USB-A devices via adapter.
Does it support Ethernet or audio jacks?
No, the HB-TBT4 does not include Ethernet or audio ports. It provides only Thunderbolt 4 and USB-C/USB-A ports. Use adapters for additional connectivity.
