Satechi is selling its new Thunderbolt 4 Hub Slim Pro in EU countries at Amazon, following its US launch earlier this year; the accessory is also available at Amazon in the US. The dock features 96W pass-through charging, has multiple Thunderbolt 4 downstream ports and supports connection to dual monitors. Update: The host device is connected via the upstream Thunderbolt 4 port, not USB-A port.

The Satechi Thunderbolt 4 Hub Slim Pro is now rolling out to more countries and retailers. Unveiled at CES 2024, the new model was previously only available to purchase directly from the company in the US. Now, customers can buy the accessory at Amazon in the US and EU countries like the Netherlands, France and Germany. Plus, a product page in the UK suggests the gadget will soon go on sale in these markets as well.

Compared to its predecessor, the Thunderbolt 4 Hub Slim, the Pro model has a more powerful 150W GaN power supply, increasing the pass-through charging power from 60W to 96W. The host device connects via a USB 3.2 Gen 2 port with up to 10 Gbps bandwidth, and at the rear are three Thunderbolt 4 downstream ports offering up to 40 Gbps and 15W power. Plus, the upgraded hub lets you daisy-chain up to six devices simultaneously, with 32 Gpbs native PCIe support for external GPUs and SSDs.

For external displays, the dock allows you to connect dual monitors with a 4K@60Hz resolution or a single screen with an 8K@30Hz (Windows) or 6K@30Hz (Mac) resolution. You can buy the Satechi Thunderbolt 4 Hub Slim Pro at Amazon for $199.99/€199.99; the UK pricing remains unclear. Plus, customers in countries like the Netherlands, France and Germany can currently get 25% off the standard model’s €199.99 RRP at Amazon, reducing the price to €149.99.

Update: The host device is connected via the upstream Thunderbolt 4 port, not USB-A port. The TBT 4 port has up to 40 Gbps bandwidth. The 10Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2 port can be used for other file transfers.
