Thunderbolt 5 is REAL
Intel’s Next-Gen Thunderbolt Technology
Free the Flow
With a total of 80 Gbps of bi-directional bandwidth, Thunderbolt 5 has 2x the bandwidth of previous generations. That means Thunderbolt 5 enables drives and hubs that don’t just move data faster, they move more data faster, sending your workflow into a bottleneck-free bliss.
Powering Performance for Creators and Gamers
Depending on your host connection, Thunderbolt 5 supports the maximum bandwidth available:
Peep Every Pixel
Nothing can complicate a desk setup faster than adding multiple displays to your workflow. Not only does a Thunderbolt 5 hub or dock make it easy to connect multiple Thunderbolt displays—such as Apple’s Studio Display or Pro Display XDR—with the addition of intelligent bandwidth scaling and DisplayPort 2.1 support, Thunderbolt 5 can support multiple high-resolution, high refresh rate monitors with ease.
Ports for Days… and Years
Built atop PCIe Gen 4, Thunderbolt 5 gives you the flexibility to connect all of your tools. And with expansive hubbing capability and the assurance of forward and backward compatibility with past and future Macs, Thunderbolt 5 is a future-proof investment in your Apple workflow.
Reinventing the Daisy Chain… Again
Get more out of your ports with enhanced daisy chaining capability. With all that new extra bandwidth, Thunderbolt 5 makes daisy chain performance between hubs, drives, and displays even better.
