2.2 USAGE NOTES
- For macOS only - To install the optional driver for use with Apple Super Drive, Apple USB Keyboard, and charging of
1/2/3 generation iPads, please install the OWC Dock Ejector app.
- Power port - In most scenarios the dock will draw 8W from its power source. When connected to a power adapter,
the dock will draw power from the adapter instead of bus-powering from the host.
- If the media reader or USB peripherals connected to the dock do not perform as expected, connect
the dock to a dedicated USB-C power adapter.
- Depending on the adapter connected, the dock can pass up to 92W to the host computer.
- Any power not used by the dock and its ports, is passed to the host for battery charging, if applicable.
- Please note that while both of the USB ports on the OWC Travel Dock E can support ‘high power’
bus-powered USB devices with the appropriate cable type, such as the OWC Envoy Pro EX or the Apple
Super Drive, it is not possible to connect two high-power, bus-powered USB devices at the same time,
unless you have a dedicated power adapter connected to the dock’s USB-C Power Delivery port.
- Ethernet port may take up to 60 seconds to negotiate a connection when used with iPadOS devices.
- Compatible with the OWC Thunderbolt 3 and Thunderbolt docks (all models).
