Newer tablets, laptops, Chromebook and MacBook notebooks, desktop computers and even smartphones often have USB Type-C ports, but come equipped with few others. Using a single USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port, this Tripp Lite multiport hub/adapter adds connection options to your device.
Typical Applications
This hub/adapter is bus-powered, so you don’t have to travel with a separate external power supply. One USB-C connection provides a Gigabit Ethernet port and multiple USB-A ports to accommodate peripherals. If you keep the hub on your desk, you will have only one cable to unplug when you take your laptop on the road.
The USB-A ports allow you to connect a huge variety of USB devices, including flash drives, cameras, keyboards, mice and external hard drives. You can also connect a printer with a USB cable when a wireless connection isn’t feasible. The ports support USB 3.1 Gen 1 data transfer rates up to 5 Gbps. They also support device charging and are backward compatible with previous USB generations.
