This StarTech.com 4-port USB-C hub is designed for users who need to expand the connectivity of their USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 enabled laptop. Its key benefit is providing SuperSpeed 10Gbps data transfer rates across one USB-C and three USB-A ports, enhancing productivity with faster access to peripherals. A minor caveat is that it is bus-powered, meaning total power delivery to connected devices is dependent on the host laptop's USB-C port capacity.

No, this hub is bus-powered and does not support Power Delivery (PD) pass-through to charge your host laptop. You will need to use your laptop's dedicated power adapter or a separate PD-enabled USB-C hub.
The hub supports SuperSpeed USB 10Gbps (USB 3.2 Gen 2 / USB 3.1 Gen 2). This allows for data transfer speeds of up to 10,000 Mbps.
The hub is bus-powered, meaning it draws power from your laptop. The total power available to connected devices depends on your laptop's USB-C port's power output. For optimal performance, avoid connecting multiple power-hungry devices simultaneously if your laptop has limited power delivery.
Yes, this hub is compatible with Mac computers running macOS 10.10 Yosemite and later, provided they have a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port.
No, installation is plug and play. Your operating system will automatically recognize the hub and its ports without requiring any driver or software installation.
The attached USB-C host cable is approximately 9.8 inches (25 cm) long, offering some flexibility in positioning.
The hub utilizes USB 3.2 Gen 2 (also known as USB 3.1 Gen 2) for its 10Gbps data transfer rate on both the USB-C and USB-A ports.
Ensure the USB-C cable is securely plugged into both the hub and the computer. Try a different USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port on your computer. Restart your computer.
Check that the connected devices are compatible. Ensure the host computer is providing enough power; try disconnecting some devices or connect to a port with higher power output. Update your computer's USB drivers.
Verify that the connected device and the hub's port are both operating at 10Gbps (USB 3.2 Gen 2). Ensure you are using the correct USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port on your computer that supports 10Gbps. Check that UASP is enabled on your OS and the connected storage device.
Confirm the connected device is compatible with USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps). Try connecting a different USB-C device to rule out an issue with the original peripheral.
