FAQs

Does the TP-Link UH700 require an external power adapter?

Yes, for stable operation and to support multiple devices, especially power-hungry ones, the UH700 requires its included external power adapter to be connected to a wall outlet.

What is the maximum data transfer speed of the UH700?

The UH700 utilizes USB 3.0 technology, offering data transfer speeds of up to 5 Gigabits per second (Gbps).

Is this hub backward compatible with USB 2.0 or USB 1.1 devices?

Yes, the TP-Link UH700 is fully backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices, although data transfer speeds will be limited to the respective older standard.

Can I charge my phone or tablet using this hub?

While the hub provides power to connected devices, its primary function is data transfer. It can charge most smartphones and some tablets, but dedicated charging ports on your computer or wall chargers will typically offer faster charging speeds.

Do I need to install any drivers for the UH700?

No, the TP-Link UH700 is plug-and-play for most modern operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and Linux. No additional drivers are typically required for basic functionality.

What kind of USB port does my computer need to connect this hub?

For optimal performance and USB 3.0 speeds, you should connect the UH700 to an available USB 3.0 port on your computer. These ports are often colored blue internally.

Troubleshooting

Connected device is not recognized or functions intermittently.

Ensure the external power adapter is securely connected to the hub and a working power outlet. Try plugging the device into a different port on the hub, or directly into your computer to rule out the device as the issue. Restart your computer.

Data transfer speeds are slow, not reaching USB 3.0 rates.

Verify that the hub is connected to a USB 3.0 port on your computer (typically identified by a blue insert). Ensure the connected device itself is USB 3.0 compatible. Avoid connecting excessively long USB cables, as this can degrade signal quality. Disconnect any older USB 2.0 hubs or devices that might be interfering.

Power-hungry devices (e.g., 2.5" external hard drives) are not working or disconnecting.

Confirm that the external power adapter for the UH700 is properly connected and functioning. Some very high-power devices might require direct connection to the computer or their own dedicated power supply. Ensure your computer's USB drivers are up to date.

The hub itself is not detected by the computer.

Try connecting the UH700 to a different USB port on your computer. Use a different USB 3.0 cable if available. Ensure the external power adapter is connected. If possible, test the hub on another computer to determine if the issue is with the hub or your computer's USB ports.
