Description

A slim hub to sit beside an Ultrabook

The TS-HUB2K is designed for thin-and-light laptops and Ultrabooks that are short on USB ports. Unlike the TS-HUB2C, this model's data lists no USB-C plug: the hub connects to a USB 3.1 Gen 1 port. The attached cable cannot get lost in a bag, and because power comes from the computer, you can copy files on a train or in a café.

Who this USB hub is for

Owners of Ultrabooks and thin laptops who connect a flash drive, an external drive and a mouse at once; students and travellers who want a hub that fits in a pocket; and anyone who does not want another power lead on the desk.
