Tripp Lite USB C Hub 4-Port USB-A USB 3.1 Gen 2 10 Gbps Portable Aluminum

Laptops arrive with fewer ports each year while desks still run on keyboards, flash drives, and card readers. This compact aluminum hub plugs directly into an upstream type-C or Thunderbolt jack and spreads the connection across a row of standard USB ports. It sits flat on the desk and needs no driver disc or software setup to start moving files.

What it does

How this one is built

Aluminum shell

The metal housing sheds heat without an internal fan and holds up to riding in a laptop sleeve alongside chargers and keys. Its solid exterior keeps internal connections seated during daily patching.

Reversible host plug

The upstream connector plugs into your machine either side up, avoiding the fumble behind a monitor or under a desk riser. It fits snug against laptop chassis jacks and Thunderbolt ports alike.

Peripheral fan out

A bank of standard USB ports lets you leave a mouse, external storage drive, and printer patched in together. You drop the laptop on the desk, connect one lead, and your workstation hardware responds right away.

Bus powered setup

Power draws straight from the host computer, so there is no heavy transformer brick to fit onto an already crowded power strip. It runs as soon as you plug it in, with no driver installs.
