Triple-Screen Productivity and Legacy Support

This hub connects to three displays at once. You can use the two HDMI ports for modern 4K monitors and the VGA port for legacy screens. It supports 4K Ultra HD at 60 Hz for sharp visuals. This setup is useful for spreadsheets, coding, or video editing. However, you should confirm your laptop supports multi-display output via USB-C.

Gigabit Ethernet for Stable Networking

The integrated Gigabit Ethernet port provides a reliable wired connection. This is useful when Wi-Fi is unstable or congested. In practice, it suits office environments or home setups where consistent bandwidth matters. The port uses a standard RJ-45 connector.

Fast Data Transfer and Card Reading

The hub includes USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports that transfer data at up to 5 Gbit/s. It also has two USB 2.0 ports for legacy devices like keyboards or mice. For photographers, the SD and microSD card slots support quick file transfers. Read speeds reach up to 104 MB/s, and write speeds reach up to 80 MB/s.

USB Power Delivery for Laptop Charging

The USB-C PD port supports pass-through charging up to 100 W. This lets you charge your laptop while using the hub. Because many laptops have only one USB-C port, this feature is essential. Note that 15 W is reserved for other hub functions, so your laptop may charge at up to 85 W.

Audio Connectivity and Compact Design

The 3.5 mm combo headphone/mic port lets you connect speakers or a headset. This is helpful as many modern laptops lack a dedicated audio jack. The hub measures 140 mm deep, 55.4 mm wide, and 15 mm high. It weighs 125 g, making it portable for travel.
