The M4 Pro variant of Apple's redesigned Mac Mini upgrades to three Thunderbolt 5 ports on the rear, tripling bandwidth to 120 Gb/s compared to the standard M4 model's Thunderbolt 4. Two front USB-C ports at 10 Gb/s handle peripherals and quick file transfers alongside a headphone jack. HDMI 2.1 drives a display up to 8K at 60Hz or 4K at 240Hz directly from the rear panel. Gigabit Ethernet sits on the rear panel, with a configurable 10GbE upgrade for network-intensive workflows.

Notes & Compatibility
No USB-A ports. All connections are USB-C. Gigabit Ethernet is on the rear panel. Configurable to 10GbE. Supports up to three displays at 6K 60Hz over Thunderbolt or HDMI, or two with one at up to 8K 60Hz / 4K 240Hz over Thunderbolt or HDMI. Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. Apple lists DisplayPort output only on the three rear Thunderbolt 5 ports; the front USB-C pair is USB 3 at 10Gb/s, so monitors and docks go in the back. The power supply is internal (100–240V AC, 155W maximum continuous), so there is no external brick.
