4-Port USB 3.0 Hub
The LORDWORLD hub adds four USB 3.0 ports to a USB-C laptop, tablet or phone. A built-in OTG chip lets you connect mice, keyboards and flash drives directly. The cable measures .5 ft and uses a VL160 chipset for stable data transfer. Over-voltage, over-current and short-circuit protection guards connected devices.
5 Gbps Transfer Speed
Each port delivers up to 5 Gbps, ten times the throughput of USB 2.0 at 480 Mbps. The USB-C power port accepts 5 V 2 A for charging only and does not carry video or data. Plug-and-play operation requires no drivers on supported hosts.
Travel-Ready Connectivity
The slim design fits in a pocket or bag for mobile workstations. It suits users who need extra USB-A ports on modern USB-C or Thunderbolt machines. Buyers requiring video output, higher power delivery or additional port types should look at a full docking station instead.

Questions about this item
Will the VL160 chipset need any firmware updates or replacement over time?
The VL160 chipset is a fixed hardware controller with no user-serviceable firmware; the hub itself has no moving parts and requires no scheduled maintenance.
What limits sustained throughput when all four USB 3.0 ports are active?
The shared 5Gbps upstream link from the VL160 chipset is the first bottleneck when multiple high-speed drives transfer data simultaneously.
How much heat does the hub produce when running all day with drives attached?
The compact aluminium body dissipates the low power draw of the VL160 chipset and 5V 2A supply, so it stays only slightly warm during continuous operation.
