We and Intel Collaborate to Release the World's First Thunderbolt 3 Titan Ridge Module
With the support of Intel (Shenzhen), Adaptertek (Grandvue Digitek) pioneered the Thunderbolt 3 Titan Ridge Module and became the first company in China to have both Intel certified and Apple certified Thunderbolt 3 Dock .
With a focus on Thunderbolt 3 downstream peripheral solutions, Adaptertek (Grandvue Digitek) has always been committed to continuously enhancing the user experience, not only in terms of product quality, but also in terms of after-sales service to exceed customer expectations. Over the years, Adaptertek (Grandvue Digitek) has continued to innovate in product technology, from USB 2.0 to Thunderbolt 3, leading customers to keep pace with cutting-edge technology, enhancing workstation performance and improving process bottlenecks. Over the years, Adaptertek (Grandvue Digitek) has been a close partner of Apple and Intel, and all of our new products have been verified and certified by both companies. Adaptertek (Grandvue Digitek) not only pursues innovation, but also represents a wealth of product development and user experience, as well as a commitment to quality assurance for our customers.
The official release of Thunderbolt 3 Module has driven the rapid development of Thunderbolt 3 docking market, saving the time and cost of design, R&D, testing, and certification for the majority of development manufacturers, allowing Thunderbolt 3 docking technology to spread rapidly and up to 40Gbps transfer rate is no longer a dream.
No Thunderbolt port EV testing is required for any I/O board using this module, only Thunderbolt FV, Power Delivery and residual I/O port testing. Estimated savings of ~70% in product development effort, certification test time and cost.
Thunderbolt 3 Module with I/O board allows you to fully charge your MacBook Pro with just one Thunderbolt 3 cable and drive two 4K (one via DP and one via Thunderbolt 3 interface) or one 5K or 8K external display at the same time with high speed data transfer up to 40 Gbps, fully utilizing the flexibility of USB-C Thunderbolt 3 interface to output power/display/data at the same time!
Two Thunderbolt 3 ports, Port A and Port B, are configured on the Module.
Port A connectivity for Thunderbolt 3-enabled Macs allows you to power your Mac with a single cable and bring up to 40 Gbps of high-speed data transfer.
Port B supports 40 Gbps high-speed data transfer and can daisy-chain up to six other Thunderbolt 3 devices to laptops and expand the number of arrays. It can also connect to other iPhone, iPad or USB Type C HUB devices and provide 15W power supply. External graphics cards and matrix hard drives can also be connected.
