Unitek H1117B USB-C hub, 4 USB 3.1 ports, active, 10 W
4 Active devices - from a USB port with a USB-A port in one place. These can be nano receivers from computer peripherals (mouse, keyboard) or gadgets such as a lamp or fan, or even a case with a hard drive. This is a convenient solution, especially if your laptop or computer has a limited number of ports. For example, MacBook users have to deal with a small number of ports. New models no longer have USB-A ports. Thanks to Plug and Play technology, the hub does not require driver installation. It is also compatible with Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems.
Lightning fast transfer
The hub is great for data transfer. USB 3.0 ports provide transfer speeds of up to 5Gbps. For example, copying an 8GB 1080p movie takes just 14 seconds. For comparison, the previous standard USB 2.0 with a speed of 480 Mb/s would take 2 minutes and 30 seconds to transfer such a file.
Safe charging
You can connect additional power, such as a phone charger, to the USB-C port. Of course, you can also use the USB-A ports for data transfer at the same time.
Practical design
The hub is small – only 8.68 cm long and 2.6 cm wide. Made of high-quality ABS material, it is highly scratch-resistant. The device already has a 15 cm cable with a USB-C plug built into it, so there is no need to buy another cable.
An active hub for demanding users
Active hubs are suitable for devices that require higher power consumption (over 500 mA). These can be webcams, tablets or external drives. This splitter has a port for additional charging (USB-C). The power source can be anything from a phone charger. To use this feature, in addition to the charger, of course, you need a cable with a USB-C plug. This has its own advantage: by using the power sources already at home, you help reduce electronic waste.
