USB hub VALUE 14.99.5035 — USB 3.2 Gen 1, 1× USB-C plug to 4× USB-A ports, 5 Gbit/s, aluminium, black

Compact VALUE USB hub model 14.99.5035 converts a single USB-C port into four USB-A ports using USB 3.2 Gen 1 with transfer speeds up to 5 Gbit/s. The hub features an aluminium housing in black that offers a durable, lightweight enclosure and precise connector alignment. It supports connection of external storage devices, input peripherals and other USB accessories to laptops, tablets and desktop computers where additional USB-A ports are required.

Advantages

The aluminium casing provides improved heat dissipation and a robust feel while keeping weight low. USB 3.2 Gen 1 compatibility ensures backward support for USB 2.0/1.1 devices and enables high-speed data transfer for external SSDs and HDDs. The integrated USB-C plug offers plug-and-play operation without the need for external power for most standard peripherals, and the compact form factor keeps the hub unobtrusive on a desk or in a bag.

Suitable for

• Connecting external hard drives and SSDs for data transfer and backups
• Adding mice, keyboards and USB headsets to laptops or tablets
• Expanding port availability on ultrabooks and compact desktops

How to use

Plug the USB-C connector of the hub into an available USB-C port on your computer. Connect up to four USB-A devices to the hub’s ports. The hub is designed for plug-and-play use; the host system should automatically recognize connected devices. For high-speed data transfers, connect USB 3.0/3.1/3.2 capable devices and use a host USB-C port that supports USB 3.2 Gen 1. If multiple high-power devices are connected simultaneously, external power may be required from a powered USB hub or a USB-C port with sufficient power delivery.

Usage recommendations

To maintain optimal performance, connect high-bandwidth devices (for example external SSDs) one at a time when transferring large files, and ensure the host USB-C port supports USB 3.2 Gen 1. Avoid using the hub with devices that require dedicated high current unless the host port provides sufficient power or an externally powered hub is used.
