Compatible ThinkPad Models

This USB 3.0 Ultra Dock supports a specific range of Lenovo ThinkPad laptops including the T550, T540s, T450, T540p, T440p, T440s, T440, and T431s. It provides a single-cable connection to expand peripheral connectivity for these devices. Owners of other ThinkPad series or non-Lenovo laptops cannot use this dock.

USB 3.0 Interface

The dock connects to the host system via a USB 3.0 interface, which determines its data throughput and video capability. This single specification dictates whether the dock meets your bandwidth requirements for external displays and attached storage. Systems limited to USB 2.0 will not achieve the intended performance.

Port Expansion Capacity

The unit adds multiple USB ports, video outputs, and audio connections to a compatible notebook, allowing a desktop-like setup with monitors, keyboards, and drives. It comfortably handles typical office peripherals and dual-display configurations. High-bandwidth demands such as multiple 4K displays or fast external RAID arrays exceed the available USB 3.0 bandwidth.

The dock supports the T431s, T440, T440s, T440p, T450, T540p, T540s and T550 series notebooks.

What physical connection does the dock use to attach to the laptop?

It connects through a single USB 3.0 cable that plugs into the notebook's USB port for both data and power delivery.
