Product Overview

The Type-C Pass-Through USB Hub adds two USB-A 3.0 data ports and an SD and MicroSD card reader to a single USB-C port, and keeps your laptop charging the whole time through a 60W USB-C Power Delivery pass-through port, so you do not have to choose between power and accessories.

1. Connect to a laptop: Plug the hub's USB-C connector into the USB-C port on your laptop.

2. Connect your devices: Connect your devices to the hub's ports.

Parts labeled diagram of the Type-C Pass-Through USB Hub with 4 labeled components.

1. Power LED Indicator: Lights up when the hub is connected to your laptop and receiving power.

4. 2x USB-A 3.0 Ports (5Gbps): Two USB-A 3.0 ports for data transfer, up to 5 Gbps each. Connected USB devices should not draw more than 5V/900mA.

- SD and MicroSD card reader at UHS-I speeds

Important Limitations

The USB-C charging port will not support data transfer or video output. It is a power-only port. Use the USB-A ports for data and do not expect a display to work from it.

Connected USB devices should not exceed power requirements above 5V/900mA. This is the per-port limit for devices plugged into the hub. Higher draw accessories, such as portable drives without their own power supply, may not run reliably.
