Product Overview
The 4 in 1 USB C Hub balances portability and functionality, combining four essential ports into a device that fits in the palm of your hand. Measuring 7x5x1.5cm (75g) with a sleek black aluminum finish, it features a 4K HDMI port, 100W PD charging port, a USB 3.0 port, and a Gigabit RJ45 Ethernet port—all arranged in a user-friendly layout (HDMI and RJ45 on one side, USB 3.0 and PD on the other) for easy access. It’s designed for professionals on the go, supporting plug-and-play functionality with MacBook Pro/Air, Windows laptops (Lenovo ThinkPad X1, Acer Swift 5), and tablets (Microsoft Surface Pro 9, iPad Pro 2024). The adapter uses a high-quality VL817 chipset to ensure stable performance, with gold-plated connectors to reduce signal loss and corrosion.
Product Features
Crisp 4K Visuals for Work & Play: The HDMI 2.0 port supports 4K@60Hz (3840x2160) with 18Gbps bandwidth, compatible with HDR10 and H.265. This delivers sharp text for document editing, vibrant colors for photo viewing, and smooth motion for video playback. It’s ideal for connecting to 4K monitors (e.g., LG 27UP850-W) or TVs, supporting extended/mirrored modes—perfect for presentations or movie nights.
Rapid Charging & High-Speed Data: The 100W PD 3.1 port provides up to 100W of power, charging 14-inch MacBook Pro (70W) from 0–60% in 40 minutes or Dell XPS 13 (45W) in 30 minutes. It also supports passthrough charging, meaning you can plug a PD charger into the adapter to power both the laptop and the hub. The USB 3.0 port (5Gbps) supports data transfer and device charging (up to 5V/2A). A 20GB folder of videos can be transferred to an external SSD in ~35 seconds, while a smartphone can be charged at 10W via the port.
Stable Gigabit Ethernet for Reliable Connectivity: The RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port (10/100/1000Mbps) delivers low-latency internet, critical for video conferences, large file uploads (e.g., a 5GB video to YouTube), or online gaming. It supports Auto-MDI/MDI-X, so no cross-over cable is needed, and works with all standard Ethernet cables (Cat 5–Cat 8). In areas with weak Wi-Fi (e.g., hotel lobbies or crowded offices), it provides a more stable connection than Wi-Fi 6.
Plug-and-Play Convenience & Durability: No drivers are required for Windows 10+/macOS 11+/Chrome OS. The adapter is recognized immediately when plugged into a USB-C port. The aluminum housing dissipates heat efficiently, preventing overheating even when all ports are in use. The USB-C connector is reinforced with a metal shell (5,000+ insertion cycles) to avoid damage from frequent plugging/unplugging.
Product Applications
Business Travelers: A sales professional can plug the adapter into a MacBook Pro during a hotel stay. They use the HDMI port to connect to the hotel’s 4K TV for reviewing client presentations, the RJ45 port for secure access to the company’s VPN (faster than hotel Wi-Fi), the USB 3.0 port to charge a wireless mouse, and the PD port to charge the laptop overnight. The compact design fits in a carry-on bag.
Students: A college student can use the adapter in a library. They connect a 24-inch monitor (HDMI) to their laptop for writing essays (reducing eye strain), a USB flash drive (USB 3.0) to access lecture notes, and the RJ45 port to the library’s Ethernet for fast research (downloading academic papers in seconds). The PD port keeps the laptop charged during long study sessions.
Field Professionals: A civil engineer working on a construction site can connect the adapter to a rugged laptop. They use the HDMI port to display blueprints on a portable 4K monitor for team meetings, the USB 3.0 port to transfer data from a laser distance meter (via USB), and the RJ45 port to connect to a portable router for sharing blueprints with the office. The PD port charges the laptop using a portable power bank (100W).
Everyday Home Use: A family can use the adapter to turn a laptop into a home entertainment center. They connect the HDMI port to a 55-inch 4K TV for streaming Disney+ with the kids, the USB 3.0 port to a external HDD (storing family photos), and the RJ45 port for stable internet during movie nights. The PD port charges the laptop while it’s in use, so there’s no need to pause streaming for charging.
FAQ
Q: Can I charge my laptop and use the HDMI port at the same time?
A: Yes, the 100W PD port provides enough power to charge most laptops (up to 100W) while the HDMI port is in use. For example, a 15-inch MacBook Pro (87W) charges at full speed even when streaming 4K video to an external monitor via HDMI.
Q: What is the maximum file transfer speed of the USB 3.0 port, and what devices does it support?
A: The USB 3.0 port supports speeds up to 5Gbps, which is 10x faster than USB 2.0. It works with external SSDs, HDDs, USB flash drives, wireless keyboards/mice, printers, and smartphones (for charging/syncing). A 10GB file takes approximately 20 seconds to transfer, while a 64GB USB flash drive can be fully loaded in ~2 minutes.
Q: Does the Ethernet port support wake-on-LAN (WoL) functionality?
A: Yes, it supports wake-on-LAN when connected to compatible laptops and networks. This means you can wake your laptop from sleep (even if it’s in another room) by sending a WoL packet from another device (e.g., a smartphone app). Note that WoL must also be enabled in your laptop’s BIOS/UEFI settings.
Q: Can I use a third-party PD charger with the PD port, or do I need the original laptop charger?
A: You can use any third-party PD charger that supports 100W or higher (e.g., Anker 737 Charger 120W) with the PD port. The adapter’s intelligent chip adjusts power output to match your laptop’s requirements, so it’s safe to use non-original chargers—just ensure the charger is certified (e.g., USB-IF certified) to avoid damage.
