Satechi's new CubeDock delivers a full Thunderbolt 5 hub in a compact chassis the exact same size as a Mac mini. The dock packs 140W charging, optional NVMe storage, and support for up to six displays into a footprint designed to live under your monitors. With speeds up to 120Gbps, it powers laptops, tablets, and smartphones simultaneously.

Built with a vented aluminum chassis and internal fan, the CubeDock stays 30-50% cooler under heavy loads. It includes three Thunderbolt 5 ports, two USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports, two USB-A ports, SD/microSD readers, 2.5G Ethernet, and a 3.5mm audio jack. The integrated NVMe enclosure supports up to 8TB of M.2 storage with 6000MB/s transfer speeds.

Windows users get triple-display support up to 8K resolution, while Mac users are limited to dual 6K displays. The dock works with M-series Apple devices running macOS 10.6 or later and Windows 11 systems including Surface Laptop Studio and ThinkPad models. Satechi offers the CubeDock for $399 with shipments beginning in late March 2026.
