Plugable's 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub with two powerful 1.5A ports and matte finish The Plugable USB3-HUB7C expands USB connectivity by enabling up to seven USB 3.0, 2.0 and 1.1 devices to be added to any USB 3.0 or 2.0 capable desktop, laptop, or tablet computer. The hub supports USB 3.0 transfer rates up to 5Gbps (640MBps) to allow data to move quickly between devices, ideal for high-throughput devices such as USB external hard drives, flash drives, and USB graphics adapters. Designed with performance and flexibility in mind, the 36W UL-listed power adapter ensures there's plenty of juice for power users' setups, with two 1.5A ports for your phones or tablets while also connecting several other USB 3.0 devices.

In addition to the higher-wattage power adapter, the USB3-HUB7C also includes 2 new features our customers have repeatedly requested which our existing mainstream USB 3.0 hubs do not offfer: a matte finish, and a physical power switch to turn off the hub. A port for everything Most computers have an average of only 4-6 USB ports. With so many devices we depend on daily, that's just not enough. All seven ports are lined up front and center to allow easy insertion of devices with the power and host USB cable coming out the rear to reduce cable clutter. USB has become more than a way of connecting devices to a computer with plug and play ease and high performance, it has also become the method of choice to power a huge range of portable battery-powered devices like cell phones, tablets, USB battery packs, handheld game consoles, e-readers, cameras, smart watches, fitness trackers, bicycle lights, and many more. The USB3-HUB7C also includes individual indication lights on the top of the hub in order to provide a indication of the device connected to the individual port communication correctly with the hub and the host. Some of those mobile devices have adopted proprietary mechanisms to draw more power than USB was originally designed to allow which has caused confusion about charging but is now being solved by the USB-IF (USB Implementers Forum) Battery Charging (BC 1.2 ) standard.

It's not just a data hub, it's also has two 1.5A ports! The USB 3.0 hub that does everything existing USB hubs do, while providing extra power on each edge port (ports 1 & 7). It's a no-compromise solution for both gaining extra USB ports and for providing power to your mobile devices. The two edge ports are great for power hungry devices, providing up to 1.5A vs 900mA of a standard port. The USB3-HUB7C adds additional capabilities for keeping all of your various devices connected and ready for action!
