For the latest M4 MacBook models (M4 Base, M4 Pro, or M4 Max), a Thunderbolt™ 4 or 5 docking station with 40Gbps or 80Gbps data transfer is the best choice. It supports dual external displays without drivers, ensuring seamless multi-monitor functionality. Visit our Thunderbolt™ docking solutions.
For users who need additional external displays, a Thunderbolt™ 4 + DisplayLink® docking station offers expanded multi-display functionality. The Kensington SD5900T docking station is an excellent option for Mac users needing high-performance connectivity.
For older MacBooks, especially M1 or M2 Base models, which natively support only one external display, a DisplayLink® docking station provides the best solution for adding multiple monitors.
MacBooks with M1 or M2 base chipsets do not support MST and natively support only one external display. MacBooks with M3 base chipsets can support two external displays via Thunderbolt™ docks—but only when the lid is closed (clamshell mode); otherwise, only one external display is supported. The latest M4 base chipsets natively support two external displays using Thunderbolt™ docks, even with the lid open.
MacBooks with M1, M2, M3, or M4 Pro chipsets natively support up to two external displays when connected through a Thunderbolt™ dock.
MacBooks with M1, M2, M3, or M4 Max chipsets support two external displays when using Thunderbolt™ docks. On Apple’s support page, it may state that M-series Max chipsets support multiple displays. For instance, it notes that MacBook Pro models with the M4 Max chip can support up to four external displays simultaneously, in addition to the built-in display. However, MacBooks currently support only up to two external displays through a single Thunderbolt™ port, so you’ll get up to dual 6K displays when using a Thunderbolt™ docking station. To maximize the CPU’s display capabilities, you can connect additional monitors directly to the MacBook, separate from the dock.
