Cheap and crappy manufacturers like here talking about "Thunderbolt" are deliberately relying on user confusion and their slippery words only mean it's compatible with Thunderbolt 3 ports, but it's USB only, does not actually support any Thunderbolt, does not give you Thunderbolt chaining or expansion (with Thunderbolt 4). etc.
If all you want to do is connect a iLok then yes just about anything should work. If you want a dock, you can do much better.
