## Long description

The StarTech.com 10-Port USB-C Hub S55174042 expands a USB-C enabled laptop or desktop with eight USB-A and two USB-C downstream ports, all supporting USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) data transfer. The compact grey desktop hub is self-powered with an included 65W DC power adapter, and ships with a USB-IF certified locking USB-C host cable and LED status indicators. The hub supports Wake On USB and includes Overcurrent Protection to manage power delivery and protect connected peripherals.
Advantages
This USB-C hub provides high-speed USB 3.2 Gen 2 bandwidth for demanding data transfers while remaining backward compatible with earlier USB standards. The included 65W power adapter ensures consistent power delivery to all ports, and two BC 1.2 charging ports supply up to 2.4A (12W) each for charging mobile devices independently of a host. The USB-IF certified host cable with screw-locking connector improves connection reliability, and the hub’s OCP feature reduces the risk of device dropouts and unexpected host shutdowns.
Suitable for
Connecting multiple external storage drives for fast file transfers and backups
Attaching webcams, headsets, mice, and keyboards to a laptop or desktop
Charging smartphones and tablets while maintaining a data connection
IT environments requiring device event logging and USB monitoring

How to use
Connect the provided USB-IF certified locking USB-C host cable from the hub to a USB-C port on your computer. Plug the included 65W power adapter into the hub and a mains outlet to enable self-powered operation and full charging capability. After connection, the hub is plug-and-play across major operating systems; the host will enumerate downstream devices automatically. Use the locking connector to secure the host connection in mobile or shared workstation setups.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, connect high-bandwidth devices (external SSDs, HD webcams) to the USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports and avoid saturating all high-speed streams simultaneously if large transfers are required. Use the BC 1.2 charging ports to charge mobile devices; ensure the 65W adapter remains connected when multiple powered devices are attached. Install the StarTech.com USB Event Monitoring Utility on Windows systems when USB event logging or device tracking is required.
