USB hub Renkforce RF-USBHA-480 4-port USB-C with USB 3.2 Gen 2, black

Renkforce RF-USBHA-480 is a compact 4-port USB hub with a USB-C connector and support for USB 3.2 Gen 2 high-speed data transfer. The hub expands a single USB-C port into four downstream USB-A ports, enabling simultaneous connection of external drives, input devices and accessories while preserving elevated transfer rates. Its black housing and compact footprint are intended for use with laptops, desktops and other host devices that provide a USB-C port.

Advantages

The hub provides four downstream USB ports while using a single USB-C connection, eliminating the need to swap devices frequently. USB 3.2 Gen 2 support enables higher sustained data transfer speeds for compatible storage devices and peripherals. The compact and lightweight design makes the hub easy to carry and position on a desk, and the standard USB-A ports maintain broad compatibility with existing devices and cables.

Suitable for

• Connecting external SSDs, HDDs and flash drives for fast data transfer
• Attaching keyboards, mice and other input devices to laptops or desktops
• Connecting webcams, microphones and streaming accessories
• Expanding port availability on thin notebooks and tablets with a single USB-C port

Key specifications

• Interface: USB-C host connector to multiple USB-A downstream ports
• Port count: 4 downstream USB-A ports
• Data standard: USB 3.2 Gen 2 (up to supported theoretical throughput over compatible hosts and devices)
• Power: bus-powered from the host USB-C port (no separate power supply included)
• Color and build: black compact housing suitable for desktop or mobile use

How to use

Connect the hub's USB-C plug to a compatible USB-C port on your laptop, desktop or tablet. Once connected, the host system should detect the additional USB-A ports and make them available for use without the need for extra drivers on most modern operating systems. Insert USB-A devices into the hub's downstream ports to access storage devices, peripherals or accessories. For high-speed transfers, ensure both the host port and connected devices support USB 3.2 Gen 2.

Usage recommendations

Use a USB-C port on the host that supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 to benefit from maximum transfer speeds. When connecting multiple high-power or high-data-rate devices simultaneously, be aware that the hub is bus-powered and total available power and bandwidth are shared across all ports. For bus-powered external drives that require more power, consider using drives with their own power supply or a powered USB hub.
