FAQs

Is this product compatible with my laptop?****

This product is compatible with the majority of laptops with a USB-C port.

Does this product support a 4K video?****

Yes, it does.

Is there a warranty for this product?****

Yes, there is a limited one-year warranty for this product.

What is the benefit of a USB-C hub?****

A USB-C hub expands the number of ports available to connect your devices and peripherals, and options range from hubs that add USB-A ports to multiport USB-C hubs with Gigabit Ethernet, HDMI, or SD connections.

Does a USB-C hub need a power supply?****

It is possible to use some USB hubs without a power supply, however, doing so may prevent the USB hub or certain high-power USB peripherals from operating. It is always recommended to use an included power supply with a USB hub when possible.

Does the quality of the USB-C hub matter?****

The most advanced USB-C docking stations have newer ports with technologies, like Thunderbolt 3, that support faster charging and faster data transfer. The more expensive the laptop accessory, the more likely it is to support a high- resolution monitor, too.

How does a USB-C hub get power?****

Fortunately, there are some USB-C hubs on the market that can support Power Delivery (PD) pass-through charging. Pass-through charging is where you connect the hub to your laptop, and then connect your laptop’s USB-C charger to the hub’s PD input port. Some hubs with this feature can even support up to 100W charging.

Does a USB hub reduce speed?****

As mentioned previously, the type of connection used for the external device and the PC will have an effect on the data transfer speed. If you’re using the correct cable and port, but are routing everything through an external USB Hub you will likely run into data speed issues.

Can a USB hub be used for charging?****

While non-powered hubs need to be plugged into a host system to charge your devices, powered hubs will charge your devices even without access to those systems. These types of USB hubs require access to an electrical outlet or power strip because they come with their own AC adapter

Do USB-C hubs need drivers?****

If you’re building a Type-C peripheral device that does not use alternate modes, you do not need to write a new USB client driver as long as you can use one of the inbox USB device class drivers from Microsoft.

Do all USB-C hubs get hot?****

USB-C hubs can get warm or even hot while using them to transfer data or charge devices. This is because the electronic components and circuitry within hubs build up heat during use.

Do USB-C hubs slow down computers?****

Since powered USB-C hubs have their own electricity source and don’t need to drain your laptop, they can take some of the stress off the laptop and potentially allow it to run faster. If you often notice your laptop running a bit slow, a powered USB-Hub could help a lot.
