Small aluminium-bodied hub combines a 1Gbps Ethernet port with three USB 3.0 ports. Compact dimensions suit desk and travel use.
Stable Wired Networking – Thanks to 1Gbps RJ45 Ethernet Port
RJ45 network port supports 1Gbps wired speeds and remains backward compatible with 10/100/1000Mbps standards. Hardware-level negotiation allows a reliable connection even when Wi‑Fi is unstable.
Stable wired connections reduce latency and dropouts during video calls and large uploads. Suitable for anyone who relies on steady internet for work or media transfers.
Fast File Transfers – With Three USB 3.0 Ports at Up to 5Gbps
Three USB 3.0 ports support transfer rates up to 5Gbps and can connect external HDDs, flash drives, webcams and other peripherals simultaneously. Backward compatibility ensures older USB 2.0 devices will still function.
Large backups and media transfers complete faster while multiple peripherals remain connected. Ideal for desktop expansion or quick on-site data replication.
Keeps High-Draw Drives Running – Thanks to Type-C 5V 2A Power Input
Dedicated Type-C power supply port accepts an extra 5V 2A input to stabilise power when connecting external HDDs or SSDs. The powered option reduces the chance of disconnects during heavy transfers.
External drives stay powered through long operations, lowering the risk of interrupted transfers. Handy for photographers and content creators moving large files.
