Belkin F4U090bt — Compact USB-C Hub With Dual-Format Ports

If your laptop has shed its USB-A ports, the Belkin F4U090bt 4-Port USB-C Mini Hub, USB 3.2 Gen 1, 5 Gbps, 2x USB-A + 2x USB-C, Black restores them in an instant. We stock this hub for anyone who needs a lightweight, no-fuss way to connect both modern USB-C peripherals and legacy USB-A devices. It draws power straight from your laptop, so there is no bulky adapter to carry.

The essentials

Two USB-A and Two USB-C — All Covered

Many compact hubs only include one type of port. This one gives you two of each. That means your existing USB-A keyboard, mouse or flash drive works alongside newer USB-C drives and cables. You do not need to choose which device to leave behind. Everything plugs in through a single connection to your laptop.

5 Gbps Transfers Across Every Port

The Belkin F4U090bt 4-Port USB-C Mini Hub, USB 3.2 Gen 1, 5 Gbps, 2x USB-A + 2x USB-C, Black supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds on all four ports. In practice, that means moving a large video file to an external SSD in seconds rather than minutes. Because the bandwidth is shared, you will still enjoy smooth performance when syncing a phone while accessing a flash drive simultaneously.

Bus-Powered Design — No Extra Clutter

This hub runs entirely off your laptop’s USB-C port. There is no separate power adapter and no DC-in jack, which keeps the footprint minimal. So you can slide it into a bag pocket alongside your charger without adding weight. It is a clean setup for hot-desking, travel or working from a café.

Pocket-Sized With a Tethered Cable

A short USB-C cable connects the hub to your laptop. When you are done, it tucks neatly into a built-in channel on the underside. That means no dangling leads and no tangles at the bottom of your bag. The whole unit is roughly the size of a pack of playing cards, making it one of the more discreet 4-port hubs we carry.

What you receive

• Belkin 4-Port USB-C Mini Hub with tethered USB-C cable

Before you order

• Confirm your laptop or desktop has a USB-C port that supports data transfer.

• Check that your peripherals do not require more power than USB bus power can deliver, such as unpowered external hard drives.
• Remember that the 5 Gbps bandwidth is shared across all active ports at once.
