Modern laptops have fewer and fewer USB ports. And if you need to connect accessories to your device that you no longer have enough ports for, you can use this small but handy hub. With this hub, you get 4 additional USB ports: a standard USB 3.0, and three USB 2.0 ports. Connect an external keyboard and mouse, transfer data or movies from a USB flash drive at speeds up to 5 Gbps, or charge your mobile devices (standard USB speed 0.9A). The Hub requires no drivers to install, just plug it in with the USB cable and you can start using it immediately. The Hub has built-in surge protection for your computer in case of short circuits on peripherals. Thanks to its compact size and light weight, you can always carry it in your bag – the metal surface protects the hub from damage and scratches.
