Thunderbolt™ Express Dock + Cable common questions

1. What is the warranty period for the Thunderbolt Express Dock?
 
The B2B025 Thunderbolt™ Express Dock + Cable has 1 Year Limited Warranty.
 
2. Will the dock act as a USB hub as well??
 
Yes.   The Thunderbolt dock is essentially a port replicator that uses one Thunderbolt line, to provide additional I/O.  The dock supports USB 3.0 (3 ports).
 
3. What is the voltage rating of the B2B025?
 
The dock runs off of 12V/6A, and from the image of the dock, it looks 900mA on the USB 3.0 connectors (not the 2.1A required to power/charge a Tablet). 
 
NOTE:  There would be an electric bolt next to the SS logo if it was 2.1Amp.
 
4. Do Apple® Super Drives work with our Thunderbolt dock?
 
No.  This is a known limitation.  However, it is not a dock issue on our side; it is an issue on Apple’s side.  The specification for SuperDrive exceeds the USB supplied power rating, and is limited by the design of Apple’s SuperDrive.  For more information, you can check Apple’s support site: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4049.
