–Other World Computing – the leading solution provider of computer hardware, accessories, and software that bring artistic expression and the digital world together for creative professionals and consumers of technology – today announced at the COMPUTEX tradeshow, a collaboration with Intel® Thunderbolt™ Share to provide fast PC-to-PC experiences via the Other World Computing Thunderbolt™ Go Dock. For those attending COMPUTEX this year, please visit the Other World Computing exhibit at booth K1205A in the Nangang Exhibit Hall 1.
By pairing the Thunderbolt Go Dock with a Thunderbolt-equipped PC, one can enjoy an optimal shared computing experience. Thunderbolt Share serves as the ultimate digital KVM by enabling the sharing of devices and content between two Thunderbolt-equipped computers easily from a single Thunderbolt port. It is the easy and fast way to do more between two PCs. With the Thunderbolt Share capabilities of the Thunderbolt Go Dock multitasking between computers will be enhanced with content and peripheral sharing capabilities. It will work seamlessly with both Thunderbolt 4 or Thunderbolt 5-based PCs and accessories. Intel Thunderbolt Share allows for a monitor, mouse, keyboard, storage, and files to be shared between two PCs all at the speed of Thunderbolt technology.
Thunderbolt Share is a software application that allows multiple PCs running Windows OS to connect and share over a Thunderbolt connection. To use this software, one of the connected Thunderbolt products needs to be licensed. For those who wish to take advantage of Thunderbolt Share with any two Thunderbolt 4 or Thunderbolt 5-enabled Windows PCs, the Thunderbolt Go Dock from Other World Computing is a gateway.
First introduced at the 2023 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, the Thunderbolt Go Dock is an example of why Other World Computing is the leading end-to-end solution provider. A full-featured Thunderbolt dock with a built-in power supply, the Thunderbolt Go Dock is designed with aircraft-grade, heat-dissipating aluminum and 11 ports to address the demands of the mobile workflow. Now with the capability of Thunderbolt Share, those who use the Thunderbolt Go Dock in a PC environment will have the added benefit of quick PC-to-PC exchange.
“The team at Other World Computing is always seeking more ways to enable our customers to do more with less and the addition of Intel’s Thunderbolt Share to our Thunderbolt Go Dock is an ideal solution for those that work with more than one computer in the same environment,” said Larry O’Connor, CEO, and founder of Other World Computing. “We are pleased to be able to work with Intel in this next evolution of Thunderbolt capabilities.”
The Thunderbolt Go Dock is ideal for those seeking additional ports and functionality, or faster Ethernet file transfers, notebook charging (90W power delivery), and memory card ingest (2.5 GbE/s). With three key factors in mobile docks being space, weight, and performance, the built-in power supply of the Thunderbolt Go Dock eliminates the need to carry around a bulky power brick.
Additional key features and benefits include:
- Three Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C) ports with up to 40Gb/s (5,000MB/s) + power
- Two USB-A ports and a USB-C for easy connection of most modern devices without compromise
- Fast 2.5G Ethernet connection
- HDMI port for 8K displays
- Ingest photos and videos via the SD card reader
