Sonnettech Echo 20 Thunderbolt 4 Docking Station
Ғылым және технология
In today's video, I will cover what could be one of the best overall docking stations I have ever used, the Sonnettech Echo 20 Thunderbolt 4 docking station. I will review all the hardware features, test its capabilities, and put it through it through its paces. I have tested many docking stations and this is the best I have used.

Very interesting docking station. I have one from another maker that is similar to one of the other echo models.

Great review, thanks! How was the heat from the dock during testing?

It is well built and all metal with venting but with an SSD it still gets a bit hot. Cooler than most that I have seen. Thanks for the feedback.
The first review with actual load testing done. Thank you! Any idea if this would work with a Linux (Debian) machine?

Thanks for the feedback. Not sure with Debian as I never tried. The answer would most likely be in drivers. If your the version of Debian you are using supports Thunderbolt and the devices you are plugging in it may work but my guess would be no.
hello. Do you know the quality or bandwith of RCA output? Which chip is used for the DAC for RCA output?

I don’t the chipset they use but objectively it sounds great. I will have to search their specs for the exact chip.
Can you do a setup video? I can not get this to work.

This should be a plug and play as there really is not setup. If you have a computer that has a Thunderbolt 4 port such as Mac Air or Windows PC with Thunderbolt, it will be automatically recognized. As these are sensitive to cable types, make sure you are using the included cable or a certified Thunderbolt 4 cable.
Have you tested it with thunderbolt 4 laptop running Windows 11? All the reviews I can find are with apple products

Yes, actually i did and did not have any issues. I did not do a full benchmark but functionally if works great. I tested it on a Razor Laptop. Thanks for pointing this out.
Why does the monitor disconnect every time I move or touch the dock?

You may have a cable issue with your HDMI cable. Sound like something is loose.
