How this one is built
Aluminum enclosure
The metal shell takes the daily knocks of being tossed into a laptop bag alongside chargers and keys. It dissipates internal warmth quietly without needing vents or moving parts.
Reversible host connector
The small male plug fits into the host port either side up. You can reach around the back of an external display or dock without fumbling with connector orientation.
Standard peripheral bank
A row of jacks accepts thumb drives, input devices, and audio gear at their native speeds. Each port also supplies current to recharge small handheld devices while you work.
Setup without drivers
The internal controller handles handshakes directly with the operating system. Plug the lead into your machine and your legacy accessories register on the system bus right away.
On the nameplate
These are the figures published for this unit. Where a number is missing here it was not printed on the listing, and we would rather leave the row out than fill it with a guess.
