Thunderbolt 4 brings relevant upgrades over predecessor, USB4: Know more
The first computers and accessories with Thunderbolt 4 ports are
expected to be available later this year, Intel said on
Wednesday even as Lenovo confirmed that it is working with the chipmaker to
introduce such devices.
Thunderbolt
4 is Intel's next generation universal cable connectivity solution, which
succeeds four-year-old Thunderbolt 3.
For the first time, Thunderbolt 4 will offer docks with up to four Thunderbolt
ports and universal cables up to two meters in length, Intel said, adding
that its upcoming mobile PC processors, code-named "Tiger Lake," will
be the first to integrate Thunderbolt 4.
"The
new capabilities and minimum requirements of Thunderbolt 4 will provide great
experiences and increased productivity that our IT customers and end users
require," Jerry Paradise, Vice President, Commercial Portfolio, Lenovo PC
& Smart Devices, said in a statement.
"Lenovo
is excited to work with Intel to expand our
support of Thunderbolt with the introduction of Thunderbolt 4 PCs and the
expanding portfolio of Thunderbolt accessories."
