Description

StarTech HB31C4AB USB-C Hub

Overview

The StarTech HB31C4AB is a compact USB-C hub designed to expand connectivity for laptops and other devices with a USB-C host port. It provides four USB Type-A ports, allowing you to connect legacy peripherals such as keyboards, mice, external drives, or webcams. This hub is ideal for mobile professionals or users with limited USB-A ports on their primary workstation, enabling a more versatile desktop setup without requiring additional drivers.

Compatibility

This hub is compatible with any host device featuring a USB-C port that supports USB Data (USB 3.2 Gen 1, formerly USB 3.0). It functions with laptops, tablets, and desktops running Windows, macOS, Linux, and ChromeOS. It is designed to work with a broad range of USB-A peripherals, including keyboards, mice, printers, external hard drives, and USB flash drives. For optimal performance, ensure your host device's USB-C port supports data transfer speeds of 5Gbps.

Installation Notes

No external power adapter is required for the HB31C4AB; it draws power directly from the host device's USB-C port. Ensure the host device's USB-C port is capable of delivering sufficient power to operate the hub and connected peripherals. Performance may vary based on the host device's power delivery capabilities and the power draw of connected USB-A devices.
