This 4-port USB 3.0 hub allows you to expand the connectivity of a USB-A laptop by adding four USB-A ports with individual on/off switches. Each port has a push button with an LED to control power and data flow, making it easier to manage power consumption for connected devices like SSDs, webcams, or headsets. The hub is bus-powered, meaning it draws power directly from the host device, eliminating the need for an external power source.
The hub supports USB 3.1/3.2 Gen 1 standards with a transfer speed of up to 5Gbps, ensuring fast data transfers for compatible devices. It is backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices, making it versatile for a wide range of peripherals. The individual port switches allow users to power on or off specific devices without unplugging them, which helps in reducing wear and tear on the USB ports and conserves energy.
The compact and lightweight design makes this hub ideal for travel and portable use. It features a black plastic housing and comes with a 9.8-inch (25 cm) attached USB-A host cable. The small form factor (3.3in x 1.4in x 0.8in) ensures it fits easily into bags or pockets without adding much bulk.
The hub is compatible with multiple operating systems including Windows, macOS, Linux, Chrome OS, and Android. It does not require any drivers for installation, making it plug-and-play right out of the box. This ensures ease of use across different devices and platforms without additional setup.
