Question Am I being unrealistic?

[EDDocGamer]

Anyone use a OWC Thunderbolt Pro dock? Im trying to run the dock with two monitors, one 4K 60Hz, and one 1440p 60Hz (An Artist 24 Drawing screen - so uses a USB port as well), as well as 10gB ethernet, a RodeCaster Pro 2, and then a powered USB Splitter, using a webcam, StreamDeck unit, and Wireless PC and mouse.

When I plug my Mac in, not all the monitors will work, and I get a message in OSX about there not bring enough power to run the USB peripherals.

Trying to run this through one Thunderbolt 4 port.

Thoughts? (And thank you)

If you remove the USB splitter (what is the make/model of that device), does the rest of the connected devices work as intended?

Can't remember if Thunderbolt 3 delivers 40 or 50 Watts. With so many devices connected, one could run out of power. Have you tried an active Thunderbolt hub/dock, with its own power supply ?

Yes my hub is powered.

Not sure if this is still an issue, but have you reached out to OWC technical support?

Actually, I did. Apparently this is an issue with OS X and Apple has yet to address it. I hope this will occur in the near future. It’s kind of surprising that this kind of problem could exist with thunderbolt technology, technology that was first initiated in macs, yet this problem as long-standing according to their tech support (OWC)
