StarTech.com 5G4AIBS-USB-HUB-NA 4-Port Self-Powered USB-C Hub with Individual On/Off Switches
Overview :
This 4-Port USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) Hub adds four USB Type-A ports to a computer, with the added benefit of each port having an individual on/off switch. The USB hub is self-powered with an included power adapter. It connects to a USB-A, or USB-C port on a laptop or desktop computer.
Four On/Off Port Switches
The four ports on the USB Hub feature a power switch to turn off the computers data/power connection to the attached device when it's not being used. This means you can turn off individual USB ports to reduce power consumption, without having to physically disconnect the device or cable. Also, this feature can ensure privacy by turning off cameras or external data storage devices that contain sensitive data, when they're not in use.
Power and Charge USB Devices
The USB hub is self-powered, with an included 36W power adapter. This enables all four ports on this USB hub to support BC 1.2, providing 1.5A (7.5W) of power simultaneously (30W total), making it ideal to charge battery powered USB devices like Smartphones, and Tablets, while also providing a data connection. The USB hub will provide power with or without a host computer connected, with support for both CDP (Charging Downstream Port) & DCP (Dedicated Charging Port) applications.
Add Four USB Ports, to Connect USB Devices
The 4-port USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) Hub expands a computer's USB connectivity, adding four USB-A ports from a single USB-A or USB-C port. The USB hub is backward compatible with older USB 2.0 (480Mbps) devices, ensuring support for a wide range of modern and legacy USB devices such as external storage devices (thumb drives, HDDs/SSDs), HD Cameras, mice, keyboards, webcams, and USB headsets.
USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) is also known as USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps), and USB 3.0 (5Gbps).
Hassle-Free, Plug-and-Play Installation
The 4-Port USB Hub is OS independent supporting all operating systems including Windows, macOS, Chrome OS, iPad OS and Android, and installs automatically when connected to a computer. To ensure wide compatibility with USB host devices, individual 3.3 ft. (1 m) USB-A, and USB-C host cables are included.
