7-Port Aluminium USB Hub

This aluminium hub adds one USB 3.0 port and six USB 2.0 ports to a laptop or desktop. It is aimed at users who need more sockets for peripherals such as storage drives, printers, scanners or cameras. The plug-and-play design works with Windows, Mac and Linux systems without driver installation.

Upgrade from fewer built-in ports

The hub replaces a shortage of native ports on modern slim laptops or older desktops. The jump is worth it when you regularly connect multiple devices at once and want to avoid constant cable swapping. It does not suit buyers who need more than one high-speed 3.0 connection or who require a powered hub for high-draw devices.

Sustained transfer behaviour

Under continuous use the single 3.0 port runs at up to 5 Gbps while the six 2.0 ports operate at 480 Mbps each. The aluminium casing helps dissipate heat during long file transfers. Over-current protection on each downstream port keeps operation stable when several devices draw power simultaneously.
