This USB hub adds four USB Type-A 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) ports to a USB-C enabled desktop or laptop computer. The USB hub connects to a USB Type-C port on a computer, using the built-in 1 foot (30 cm) host cable.

The USB hub is backward compatible with USB 2.0 (480Mbps) devices, ensuring support for a wide range of modern and legacy USB peripherals (e.g., thumb drives, external HDDs/SSDs, HD cameras, mice, keyboards, webcams, and audio headsets). The USB hub is compact in size, facilitating portability when travelling.

Bus-Powered with Optional Auxiliary Power
The USB hub can operate with bus power alone. It features a Micro USB power input that can be connected to a USB power adapter (sold separately), providing up to 4.5W (5V/0.9A) of power in addition to the 15W of bus power. This flexibility is ideal for applications requiring additional power, such as connecting a high-power USB device (e.g., external HDD/SSD), while using the other ports to connect lower powered devices.

The downstream ports are each capable of providing up to 4.5W of power to the connected peripherals.

For added protection to connected USB devices, the USB ports feature overcurrent protection (OCP). OCP prevents USB peripherals from drawing more power than is safely allocated for each port.

Plug and Play
This device is OS independent, supporting all operating systems, including Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, iPadOS, and Android. The hub is automatically detected, configured, and installed upon connection to a host computer. This ensures automatic installation and with any USB-C laptop, including Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4, and USB 4 computers such as Apple MacBook (Intel/M1/M2), Lenovo X1 Carbon, and Dell XPS.

The built-in extra-long 1 foot (30 cm) USB Type-C host cable ensures easy setup and reduces connector strain on 2-in-1 devices such as the Surface Pro 7, iPad Pro, HP Elite X2 and laptops on riser stands.
