Each port supports data transfer rates up to 5Gbps, allowing external drives, keyboards, mice and other peripherals to run at full USB 3.2 Gen 1 speed. The hub draws power through the USB-C host connection, requiring no separate power adapter for devices under the USB specification limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for users who need to connect multiple devices to laptops with limited USB ports, the hub works with MacBooks, Chromebooks, Windows laptops and Android tablets that support USB-C data. The 100mm cable length gives enough reach to position the hub on a desk without the cable pulling tight. At 26g and 104mm x 23mm x 8mm, the hub fits into a laptop bag pocket or sleeve without adding significant bulk or weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brushed aluminium body dissipates heat generated during sustained data transfers and resists scratches better than plastic housings. The USB-C connector shell is metal-reinforced to withstand repeated plugging cycles. Plug-and-play operation means no driver installation is needed on Windows 10\/11, macOS, ChromeOS or Linux systems — the hub enumerates automatically when connected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll four ports can be used simultaneously, though the total bandwidth is shared across the hub. Connecting four high-speed devices at once may reduce individual port speeds below 5Gbps depending on the workload. For charging-only devices like phones or Bluetooth headphones, the hub can supply power, but it cannot fast-charge devices beyond standard USB 5V output as it has no power delivery passthrough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConnector\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSB3.2 Type-C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInterface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2* USB3.2 Type-C and 2* USB3.2 Type-A Ports\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eData transfer rate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5Gbps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e104 x 22.8 x 7.6mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLead length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this hub charge my laptop?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The hub does not support USB Power Delivery passthrough, so it cannot charge a laptop while in use.
