Connect Your Peripherals and Power Your Laptop with One Thunderbolt 5 Cable
Echo 20 Thunderbolt 5 SecureDock links plugged-in Thunderbolt devices, monitor(s), USB peripherals, powered speakers, and Ethernet cable to your computer with a single Thunderbolt 5 cable. Got a laptop? Keep its power adapter in your bag — the SecureDock will power it with 140W of charging power. When it’s time to leave, just disconnect the Thunderbolt cable, grab your computer, and go.
Integrated HDMI and DP Display Support
Echo 20 Thunderbolt 5 SecureDock features video output ports for HDMI and DisplayPort displays, enabling you to connect either an up to 8K* @60Hz HDMI monitor or a 4K @144Hz DisplayPort monitor.
Blazing-fast 10GBASE-T Access
Echo 20 Thunderbolt 5 SecureDock supports demanding workflows with built-in 10 Gigabit Ethernet, enabling connection to 10GbE infrastructure using cost-effective Cat 6 or Cat 6A copper cabling (up to 55 or 100 meters, respectively) — eliminating the need for a separate adapter.
Delivering up to 10x the performance of Gigabit Ethernet, the dock also supports 5 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 1 Gbps, and 100 Mbps link speeds when connected to switches or NAS devices without 10GbE support, using standard Cat 5e (or better) cabling.
AVB Support: Audio Video Bridging (IEEE 802.1Qav, AVB) support for macOS makes this dock ideal for use in pro audio and video applications where synchronization of data streams is critical.
High Resolution Audio Support
Echo 20 Thunderbolt 5 SecureDock features a hi-res Audio Codec (coder-decoder) that supports the dock’s audio I/O jacks with high quality, lossless audio. And, with the SecureDock’s fanless, silent design, you’ll hear every detail.
Headset Microphone:
- 24-bit/48 kHz and 24-bit/96 kHz sample rates - Ideal for meetings, calls, and chat headsets, and supports professional microphones.

Dual Downstream Thunderbolt 5 Ports for Simple, Powerful Connectivity
Echo 20 Thunderbolt 5 SecureDock incorporates three Thunderbolt 5 ports. One connects to and powers your computer — ideal for laptops with only one or two Thunderbolt ports, since it handles charging and data through a single connection. The other two support Thunderbolt 5, 4, and 3 devices — as well as USB4 and USB 3 peripherals — and each provides 15W for demanding bus-powered devices. If supported by your computer, you can also connect one or two additional displays.
