Description

10 Gbps on every USB port

USB 3.2 Gen 2 gives all three data ports up to 10 Gbps, twice the speed of 5 Gbps hubs. That pays off with NVMe M.2 external drives, several of which can be connected at once. The ports also charge a phone at up to 1.5 A. The hub is compatible with USB4 and Thunderbolt 3/4 ports.

A monitor up to 240 Hz and wired networking

HDMI supports 4K at 60 Hz, 2K up to 120 Hz and Full HD up to 240 Hz, plus HDR and HDCP 2.3. For the maximum values the computer USB-C port must support DP Alt Mode (DisplayPort 1.4) or Thunderbolt 3/4. The Gigabit RJ-45 port supports Wake-on-LAN.

Who this USB hub is for

Laptop users who want to connect a monitor, network, a fast external drive and the charger with one cable. Supported systems are Windows 10 and 11, macOS, iPadOS, iOS, Linux, ChromeOS and Android, so the hub also works with an iPad or a phone.
