Dual Thunderbolt 3 ports provide a 40Gbit/s upstream data pipe and daisy-chain port with each high-speed portable to transfer data at up to 5Gbit/s. Up to 6x Thundersync3 C10 hubs can be connected to a single host computer to manage up to 60 USB devices. RGB LEDs are supplied on each port for status feedback.

As USB devices are connected, its algorithm will detect the highest charge rate permitted for each device. When using USB2.0 devices, further Thundersync3 C10 systems can be scaled to offer 30 downstream ports with no data bottlenecks, due to the available bandwidth of the Thunderbolt 3 interface.

It can charge multiple device types simultaneously, irrespective of manufacturer – phones, tablets, Chromebooks, 3D Glasses, etc. For every device connected, the pre-programmed Very Intelligent Charging protocol ensures the right charging profile is employed for the specific product, maintaining battery performance and boosting battery life with no damage risk to expensive technology products. The device is created to operate with the complementary LiveView app, which offers complete control and monitoring. Displaying the unique benefits of its patented technology, the supplied software provides the charging status in detail, showing how much energy each attached device uses. Individual ports can be configured for Sync or Charge mode, both, or turned off. An API is also offered for software automation scripting, crucial for software QA and mobile phone remarketing companies. The device can also charge attached USB devices without a local computer. It has ESD, over-voltage, over-current and over-temperature protection, UL, FCC, UKRA and CE certification, RoHS Compliant, and comes with a two-year warranty.

 

The device is supplied in a sturdy, compact 17" x 10.3" x 1.7” (431mm x 262mm x 43.6mm) and lightweight 1.1lb (0.5kg) UL94-V0 specification fire enclosure. VESA mounting points are on the underside to enable multiple mounting possibilities.

The device is ideal for educators, manufacturers, defence, security, software QA, and wearable camera companies who conduct large scale charging and data transfer.
