Description

Seven fast ports plus phone charging

USB 3.0 at up to 5 Gbps is roughly ten times faster than USB 2.0, so copying to an external drive or flash drive is not held back by the hub. BC 1.2 support means the hub ports can charge a phone or other USB-charged device with more current than a plain data port. The detachable Type-B connection is also sturdier than a cable fixed to the hub.

Who this USB hub is for

Desktop and laptop users who need to connect a drive, printer, camera and other accessories at the same time; offices where the hub sits permanently on the desk; and anyone who wants to charge a phone from the same place as the data ports.
