Four-port USB 2.0 hub

This white UGREEN 4212W hub adds four USB 2.0 ports to a Mac, Windows or Linux computer. It connects with a 50 cm cable and requires no driver installation. The hub is suited for users who need to attach mice, keyboards, flash drives or other low-bandwidth peripherals to a single host port. Buyers who need faster transfer speeds or more than four ports will not find them here.

Sustained transfer behaviour

The hub operates at the USB 2.0 maximum of 480 Mbps and remains backwards compatible with USB 1.1 devices. Throughput stays at this level during extended file copies because the controller does not negotiate a higher standard. No external power adapter is included, so the hub draws all current from the host port. Users connecting multiple bus-powered hard drives may see voltage drop under heavy load.

Thermals noise and power

Passive operation means no fan noise and no moving parts to wear out. The plastic enclosure stays at ambient temperature during typical keyboard and mouse use. An optional micro-USB female socket is present for a separate power supply if attached devices exceed the host port current limit. LED indicators show the working condition of each port. Power consumption scales only with the devices actually plugged in.

Questions about this item

Does the 50 cm cable on the UGREEN 4212W stay cool and silent during continuous all-day use?

The hub has no moving parts and draws only bus power, so it runs silently and generates negligible heat even when all four USB 2.0 ports are active.

Which host port must my computer provide for the UGREEN 4212W to operate without an external adapter?

A standard USB 2.0 Type-A port supplies both data and power; no separate power supply is required unless you connect particularly power-hungry peripherals.

Will my older USB 1.1 keyboard and mouse work reliably through the four USB 2.0 ports on this hub?

Yes, the hub is backwards compatible with USB 1.1 devices, so legacy keyboards, mice and other low-speed peripherals function normally alongside newer USB 2.0 gear.
