LUOM ULC28 USB-C hub with Gigabit Ethernet

The LUOM ULC28 adds three USB 3.0 ports and a 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 port to a single USB-C connection. It is aimed at laptop and desktop users who need wired networking plus extra USB-A sockets for flash drives, mice, keyboards or hard drives. The aluminium housing aids heat dissipation during use. No driver installation is required on supported systems.

Check your host port and operating system

Verify that your device provides a USB-C port capable of data and that the operating system is among the listed compatible versions such as Windows Vista or the specified MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iMac, iMac Pro, Mac mini and MacBook models from 2015 through 2018. The hub draws power from the host so confirm the port can supply 5 V DC for connected peripherals. Ethernet cables and USB-A devices should be standard RJ45 and USB 3.0 or 2.0 plugs.

Sustained transfer and thermal behaviour

Under continuous load the three USB 3.0 ports share a 5 Gbps aggregate bandwidth while the Gigabit Ethernet link runs at up to 1000 Mbps. The aluminium body spreads heat across its surface to keep the hub within the rated 0 °C to 70 °C operating range during long file copies or extended network sessions. LED indicators show power and activity status for each interface.
