The Anker USB C Hub, PowerExpand 8-in-1 USB C Adapter is designed for users who need to significantly expand the connectivity of their USB-C equipped devices, offering a comprehensive solution for data transfer, display output, and power delivery from a single port. Its key benefit is the versatility provided by its eight ports, allowing for simultaneous connection of multiple peripherals. A potential caveat is the reliance on an external PD charger for pass-through charging to achieve maximum speeds.

The hub supports a single external display at up to 4K@60Hz.
Yes, you can connect two monitors simultaneously, but each will be limited to 4K@30Hz.
You need to connect a 100W USB-C Power Delivery wall charger and a USB-C to C cable to the hub's dedicated PD port.
While it uses a USB-C connector, this hub is designed for standard USB-C Alt Mode and PD functionality. Compatibility with specific Thunderbolt devices may vary; it does not add Thunderbolt capabilities.
You can insert your microSD or SD memory card directly into the respective slots on the hub for quick access and data transfer.
The hub is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems.
The package includes the PowerExpand 8-in-1 USB-C PD Media Hub, a welcome guide, and an 18-month warranty.
Ensure your laptop's USB-C port supports DisplayPort Alt Mode. Try a different HDMI cable or monitor. Confirm the hub is connected securely. For dual displays, check if the resolution meets the 4K@30Hz limit for simultaneous use.
Unplug and re-plug the device or card. Try a different USB-A port on the hub or directly to your computer. Ensure the SD card is properly inserted and formatted.
Verify that the connected device (e.g., external drive) and the hub's USB-A ports are operating at their maximum supported speed (e.g., USB 3.0/3.1/3.2). Avoid using too many high-bandwidth devices simultaneously.
Ensure you are using a USB-C PD wall charger with a minimum of 100W and a compatible USB-C to C cable. The hub itself consumes some power; the actual charging speed delivered to your laptop will be up to 85W.
Ensure the Ethernet cable is securely plugged into both the hub and your router/modem. Try a different Ethernet cable. Check your router's settings.
Setup: Simply plug the USB-C connector of the hub into a compatible USB-C port on your laptop or device. Connect your peripherals (monitors, USB devices, Ethernet cable, memory cards) to the corresponding ports on the hub. For charging, connect a USB-C PD wall charger and a USB-C to C cable to the hub's USB-C PD port, then connect the cable to your laptop.
Compatibility: This hub is compatible with laptops and devices featuring a USB-C port that supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode (Alt Mode) and USB Power Delivery (PD). It works with Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems. Note that USB-A ports only support data transfer, not charging for smart devices.
Care: Keep the hub in a well-ventilated area during use, as prolonged operation can generate heat. Clean the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid exposing the hub to liquids or extreme temperatures. Ensure cables are not strained or bent excessively.
