The ThunderSync3-16 key features

Fast data transfer

The ThunderSync3-16 delivers a guaranteed minimum of 1 Gbps and up to 4 Gbps per port, and is up to 7x faster than traditional hubs. It features 16 USB-A ports, allowing you to sync significantly more devices per cycle.

Powered by Thunderbolt 3, it accelerates data-intensive workflows, such as mobile device and software testing, mass device refurbishment, and deployment, allowing you to sync large volumes of data without delays.

Intelligent Thunderbolt architecture

Thunderbolt technology, featured in the ThunderSync3-16, overcomes the USB endpoint limitations of conventional hubs by utilising multiple built-in USB controllers and a Thunderbolt 3 upstream connection.

This allows you to scale your device fleet without bottlenecks and maintain optimal performance across all 16 ports simultaneously.

Desktop and rack-mountable

Shipped with a compact 1U rack-mount enclosure, the ThunderSync3-16 fits both desktops and test racks, as well as server rooms.

This form factor makes it ideal for enterprise setups and reverse logistics facilities, where space, cable management, and structured deployment are key considerations.

Port status LEDs

Each port features a programmable LED to indicate connection and data transfer status
