COMPATIBILITY
The CM642 supports USB4 connectivity and works with compatible Thunderbolt 3 and Thunderbolt 4 host interfaces. It suits selected Windows laptops, Mac computers and desktop workstations with suitable high-bandwidth USB-C ports. It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux. It also works with compatible USB 3.x connections, but the available transfer bandwidth will be lower. Full-speed operation needs a suitable USB4 or Thunderbolt host and an appropriately rated cable, because a USB-C connector alone does not guarantee 40Gbps performance.
