NSI 8-in-1 USB-C & USB 3.0 Hub

The NSI YDF03168621 combines five memory card slots with three USB 3.0 ports in a single hub. It accepts SD, TF, CF, XD and MS cards up to 2TB. Dual USB-C and USB-A connectors let you plug into either port style. The hub is powered by the host connection and works with Windows, Mac OS, Linux, Chrome OS and Android.

Photographers and mobile workers

This hub suits photographers and mobile workers who need to offload multiple card formats and attach peripherals at the same time. Simultaneous read and write across slots is supported. Users who only have USB-A ports and do not need card readers, or who require an externally powered hub for high-draw devices, should look at a different solution.

5 Gbps transfer rate

The single specification that decides fit is the 5 Gbps maximum data rate shared across all ports. It determines how quickly large RAW or video files move from card to computer. If your workflow demands sustained throughput above this ceiling, a faster interface is required.

Questions about this item

Does the NSI YDF03168621 include a cable or do I need to buy one separately?

The hub has both USB-C and USB 3.0 connectors built in, so no separate cable is required to connect it to a computer.

Which card slot should I use for a 2TB card?

The reader supports cards up to 2TB across its SD, TF, CF, XD and MS slots, so any of those will handle a 2TB card.

Will the 5Gbps transfer rate be reached when I plug the hub into a USB 3.0 port?

Yes, the hub's 5Gbps rate matches the USB 3.0 interface, so you can achieve that speed when connected to a USB 3.0 port.
