USB hub Exsys EX-12297HMS — 7-port USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 (2× USB-C, 5× USB-A)

Exsys EX-12297HMS is a 7-port USB hub that provides two USB-C and five USB-A ports with support for USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 transfer rates. The hub expands a single host port into multiple high-speed interfaces for connecting external drives, peripherals and mobile devices. Its mix of USB-C and USB-A connectors makes it compatible with modern laptops, desktops and workstations, delivering fast data transfer and convenient device charging where multiple ports are required.

Advantages

The hub supports USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 performance on all downstream ports, enabling higher throughput for external SSDs and large file transfers. A combination of two USB-C and five USB-A ports offers flexibility for connecting contemporary and legacy devices without additional adapters. The compact design reduces desktop clutter while providing a reliable wired connection for peripherals; plug-and-play operation requires no additional drivers on most operating systems.

Suitable for

• Connecting external SSDs and HDDs for fast data transfers
• Expanding port options on laptops and ultra‑compact PCs
• Attaching keyboards, mice, printers and other peripherals
• Charging and syncing smartphones, tablets and accessories
• Workstation setups requiring multiple high‑speed USB connections

Key specifications

• Number of ports: 7 total (2 × USB-C, 5 × USB-A)
• USB standard: USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 (10 Gbps theoretical per port)
• Data transfer: High-speed up to USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 rates for supported devices
• Compatibility: Works with USB-C and USB-A host devices via included cable or adapter as applicable
• Power delivery: Supports device charging from USB ports (subject to host power limits)
• Form factor: Compact desktop hub intended for stationary or portable use

How to use

Connect the hub to a host computer using the provided cable or the required host connector. Once connected, attach downstream devices to the USB-C or USB-A ports as needed for data transfer or charging. Most operating systems will recognize the hub automatically; for best performance, connect high-bandwidth peripherals such as external SSDs to USB-C ports or the highest-performing downstream ports. If multiple high-current devices are attached, ensure the host can supply sufficient power or use an externally powered solution if available.

Usage recommendations

For reliable high-speed transfers, connect large-capacity storage devices directly to a USB-C port and avoid daisy-chaining multiple hubs. Keep firmware and system USB drivers up to date and use quality cables rated for USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 to maintain optimal throughput and stability.
