Description

StarTech HB31C3A1CPD3 PORTABLE 4 PORT USB-C HUB

Overview

The StarTech HB31C3A1CPD3 is a portable USB-C hub designed to expand connectivity for laptops and workstations. It provides three USB-A ports and one USB-C port, all supporting USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) data transfer speeds. This hub is ideal for environments where you need to connect multiple high-speed peripherals, such as external SSDs, docking stations, or high-resolution displays, to a single USB-C port. The integrated 100W Power Delivery passthrough allows you to charge your host device while simultaneously using the hub's ports, with the hub itself consuming a minimal 13.5W. Its compact, durable aluminum and plastic housing makes it suitable for mobile professionals and desktop use.

Compatibility

This USB-C hub is compatible with any host device featuring a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3/4 port. It supports OS Independent operation, meaning it functions with Windows, macOS, Linux, and ChromeOS without requiring driver installations. It is designed to work with a wide range of laptops, ultrabooks, and workstations that utilize USB-C for data and power delivery.

Installation Notes

The hub connects to the host device via an integrated 9.8-inch cable. For Power Delivery passthrough, a USB-C power adapter (sold separately) must be connected to the hub's USB-C port. The host device must support USB Power Delivery 3.0 for charging capabilities. The operating temperature range is 0 to 50 C (32 to 122 F), and storage temperature is -20 to 70 C (-4 to 158 F). Operating humidity is 0% to 95% non-condensing.
