When most photographers and videographers think about workflow, they think about processes. And of course, having checklists, shot lists and step-by-step procedures is important. But best practice without the best practical solution will only get you so far.
Backing up your cards data to external drives, connecting to your accessories, charging multiple devices – these are the bottlenecks to an efficient workflow. And this is where the most valuable solutions come into play, whatever kind of content you’re creating.
ProGrade Digital offers ideal connectivity solutions that won’t just supercharge your workflow, just as importantly, they’ll also simplify and organize your workspace. No more balancing card readers on top of things or having cables strewn across your keyboard to plug one thing into another.
Space trumps specs, when specs don’t have the space
We all know the benefits of having the best specs and the top speeds. Faster and more stable transfer speeds are a given part of any good workflow.
But if your physical workspace doesn’t enable you to quickly and cleanly connect your card readers, external drives, monitors and chargers, you’re throttling your ability to maximize the speed and specs you’ve paid for.
The problem is that most accessories aren’t designed to work together – and this is where ProGrade Digital’s PG20 Pro Thunderbolt 4 Hub and PG25 Pro Thunderbolt 5 Dock truly transform your workspace and workflow in equal measure.
Boasting all the Thunderbolt ports you could need, along with by USB versatility, you’re getting speeds of up to 80Gb/s. But more importantly, you’re getting magnetic workstations designed to mount ProGrade card readers – enabling you to build a modular, synchronized system that sits perfectly in your workspace.
Say goodbye to stacking, dangling cables and knocking things over!
The perfect personal creation workstation
If you’re an independent creator, photographer or videographer, the ProGrade Digital PG20 Pro Thunderbolt 4 Hub gives you plenty of horsepower to play with.
Equipped with ProGrade’s patented magnetic base, it securely attaches to your desktop for a tidy and stable workspace. And with its customized magnetic top plate, it can lock in two ProGrade Digital card readers safely in place.
Combine that with space-saving custom-made USB 4.0 cables (sold separately) for lightning-fast transfer speeds of up to 40Gb/s and you can unlock the true potential of your setup.
It combines a single upstream 85W Thunderbolt 4 port to power your laptop (a high-quality, certified Thunderbolt cable is included), with a trio of 15W downstream Thunderbolt 4 ports, enabling you to connect a pair of card readers with an SSD like the ProGrade PG10.
External power ensures reliable performance, while an additional USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type A port enables you to connect extra devices.
A premium, professional-power workstation
For professionals who need more power and performance, the ProGrade PG25 Pro Thunderbolt 5 Dock levels up every aspect of your connectivity.
Juggling multiple drives and devices is a walk in the park for this dock, which packs a 140W upstream Thunderbolt 5 port for heavy duty charging (again, a certified Thunderbolt cable is included), with a trifecta of downstream 15W Thunderbolt 5 ports capable of hitting transfer speeds up to 80Gb/s.
Ensuring that every possible connection is accounted for, these are backed up by a pair of USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports, twin USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 ports, a 2.5GbE ethernet port and a 3.5mm audio jack.
The PG25 is again equipped with a patented magnetic base, and comes with an adhesive metal plate to mount the dock securely to any surface, with a magnetic top that perfectly fits a pair of ProGrade Digital card readers or PG10.5 mini SSDs.
Everything professional creators need to customize and organize their workflow and workspace, without having to compromise performance.
