If you have a USB-C™ equipped laptop but lack other important connection ports then this hub can help.

It's ideal for virtually any USB-C equipped laptop such as the Chromebook Pixel™ the Dell™ Latitude 11 5000 2-in-1 and Dell XPS 12.

Take advantage of USB-C

This dynamic USB 3.0 hub integrates an easy-to-use USB Type-C™ connector. It's small and reversible which makes for easier insertions and you can connect the plug with either side facing up which means less risk of damaging your ports and less frustration.

While your USB-C equipped laptop or MacBook is lightweight and portable it might be missing vital connectivity ports such as wired Internet. Because this hub offers a Gigabit Ethernet port you can connect to a network in locations were Wi-Fi® is unreliable or unavailable.

Compact design for portability or permanent placement

With a small footprint and lightweight housing you can easily tuck the hub and the included power adapter into your laptop bag to expand your connectivity when you're traveling.

Plus the compact USB 3.0 hub takes up minimal space on a desk so it fits perfectly in office hot-desk (short-term guest) and BYOD workstation environments.

Extended-length cable eliminates aggravation

The hub's built-in USB cable is long enough to reach your laptop or tablet's USB 3.0 port regardless of where the port is located. Now you can eliminate the worry and frustration when your hub's built-in cable is too short and doesn't reach your laptop's USB port location.

Plus the extended-length cable provides you with more desk placement options which makes it easier to create a comfortable space-efficient work area.

Save money and time

This easy-to-use hub is natively supported in most operating systems and you can install it quickly without having to install additional drivers or software. You can also avoid the nuisance and cost of purchasing new devices by using the USB 3.0 hub with your current USB 2.0 and 1.x devices.
