Default Avid HD IO to Macbook Pro

Can someone point in the right direction of if and how I can hook my HD IO up my MacBook Pro 2017 (it has 4 USB 3 connectors)? Sorry if it's a stupid question, I wasn't sure where to look and I'm a bit out of touch on what connects with what.

Convert your Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 and use the Apple Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet-adapter to get an Ethernet port. Then use a DiGiGrid DLI to connect the Avid HD.

You will also need Pro Tools Ultimate and a digilink license.
