Description

StarTech HB30CM4AB 4 Port USB-C Hub

Overview

The StarTech HB30CM4AB is a compact 4-port USB-C hub designed to expand connectivity for laptops and workstations. It provides four USB-A ports, each supporting 5Gbps data transfer rates via USB 3.2 Gen 1, enabling you to connect essential peripherals like keyboards, mice, external drives, and cameras. Its bus-powered design means it draws power directly from the host USB-C connection, eliminating the need for an external power adapter, making it ideal for mobile professionals and clean desk setups. The HB30CM4AB model is particularly useful for systems that may have limited USB-A ports but a readily available USB-C interface.

Compatibility

This hub is compatible with any host device featuring a USB-C port that supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 or higher. It functions with operating systems such as Windows 8/10/11, macOS 10.12 and later, Linux, and Chrome OS. It is designed to work with a wide range of laptops, ultrabooks, and workstations, including but not limited to models from Dell Latitude, HP EliteBook, Lenovo ThinkPad, Apple MacBook Pro, and Microsoft Surface lines. It supports standard USB-A peripherals, including keyboards, mice, webcams, and external storage devices.

It requires a humidity level between 0% and 95% (non-condensing). The integrated 11-inch (28 cm) cable provides moderate reach for desk placement.
