plugable 7 Port Hub USB 3.0 w/ Dual Charging Ports Superspeed 5Gbps 36W 36 Watt

The Plugable 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub expands USB connectivity by enabling up to seven USB 3.0/3.1 Gen 1, 2.0 and 1.1 devices to be added to any USB-A 3.0/3.1 Gen 1 or 2.0 port on a desktop, laptop, or tablet computer. Supporting standard USB 3.0/3.1 Gen 1 transfer rates up to 5 Gb/s, this hub allows data to move quickly between devices, and is ideal for high-throughput accessories such as USB external hard drives, flash drives, and USB graphics adapters. A 36W AC adapter is included. The matte finish resists fingerprints, while a physical on/off switch allows for easy power control. Seven USB-A ports are lined up front-and-center for easy access, with the power connection and host USB cable facing rearward to reduce cable clutter. Per-port LED status lights on the top of the hub indicate a successful connection between the device and the host computer. In addition to standard data transfer and sync, this hub provides extra power on each port. Five ports deliver 0.9A at 5V for 4.5W of power. Two ports deliver 1.5A at 5V for 7.5W of power; special charging signals enable supporting devices to charge at a much faster rate. This hub features the VIA VL813 USB 3.0 hub chipset updated to firmware version 9015 for maximum compatibility with almost all USB 3.0/3.1 Gen 1 hosts. It allows for full forward and backward compatibility between USB 3.0/3.1 Gen 1, 2.0, and 1.1 hosts and devices. This chipset is a 4th generation solution which emphasizes high performance and high power efficiency.
