A 27-inch 4K designer monitor built around dual Thunderbolt 3. One Thunderbolt port handles video, data, and up to 65W of laptop charging through a single cable, while the second acts as a daisy-chain output — connect a second TB3 monitor or an external SSD array. The second TB3 drops to 15W, so a second charging laptop isn't an option. HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.4 inputs are there for non-TB sources.
27″ 4K designer monitor with dual Thunderbolt 3 (65W + 15W daisy-chain), HDMI 2.0, and DisplayPort 1.4.
