USB-C Multi-Port Adapter with Card Reader
The Targus ACA953USZ connects a laptop or tablet to one external HDMI display while adding two USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 ports, one USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 port and SD or Micro SD card slots. It is built for mobile professionals who need video output, legacy USB connections and card access from a single USB-C host port.
Upgrade from single-port dongles
This adapter replaces basic USB-C to HDMI cables or simple card readers that occupy the only host port. The jump is worth it when you must drive a 4K display at 30 Hz, transfer UHS-I cards and keep the host charged through 100 W Power Delivery pass-through at the same time.
Plug-and-play installation
No driver install is required on modern operating systems; the adapter enumerates as a standard USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode device and mass-storage reader. The most common issue is using a host port that lacks DisplayPort Alt Mode or Power Delivery support, which prevents video output or charging pass-through.

Questions about this item
Does the ACA953USZ need a free USB-C port on my laptop to work?
Yes, the adapter plugs directly into a USB-C connector that supports DP Alt Mode and power delivery up to 100W.
What is the step people miss when connecting an external display?
After plugging in the HDMI cable, select the correct input on the monitor and set the display to 4K at 30Hz in your OS settings.
Will the SD card slots still read cards if I update my operating system later?
The slots follow the Secure Digital 3.0 UHS-I standard, so they remain compatible with future OS releases that support that specification.
