CalDigit Thunderbolt 3 Docking Stations including TS3 Plus, TS3 and TS3 Lite as well as T4 Thunderbolt 3 RAID are compatible with the Apple Thunderbolt Display (Thunderbolt 1 & 2 versions). Apple’s Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 adapter is required to connect in between the dock’s Thunderbolt 3 port and Thunderbolt 1/2 display.
