Lacks the deep network security integration of the Thunderbolt 4 Dock — no Wake-on-LAN from S4/S5 sleep states and no host/port access control via Surface Enterprise Management Mode (SEMM). Ethernet is standard Gigabit, not 2.5G. Its 65W passthrough is modest, unsuitable for high-performance laptops under sustained processing load.
