Fast and Reliable Wins the RaceBuilt around the Goshen Ridge chipset from Intel, the USB4-HUB3A gives you access to everything Thunderbolt 4 and USB4 have to offer. That means high speed—each port is capable of data transfer speeds up to 40Gbps, the maximum rate available through a USB-C port. But data isn’t the only thing flowing through these ports. Thanks to intelligent power handling, you’ll also get up to 15W of charging power for each of your connected devices, evenly distributed across the ports to ensure a balanced load. And because this hub ships with the latest certified firmware from Intel, you can count on smooth operation. |
Thunderbolt 4, USB4, and MoreBecause the hub is Thunderbolt certified and built around a Goshen Ridge chipset, your USB-C, Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4, and USB4 devices are supported, too. And don’t worry if you’re not sure what your system supports. The USB4-HUB3A will detect your computer’s capabilities and adjust accordingly. |
The Beauty of 8K Is on DisplayDon’t limit yourself to the confines of a little laptop screen. With this multiport hub, connect up to two 4K 60Hz displays or one 8K 30Hz display to a Thunderbolt 4 / USB4 PC or a Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4 or USB4 Mac (M1 and M2 Macs are limited to one display). It even comes with a USB-C to HDMI 2.0 adapter to make connecting that second screen all the easier. It’s worth noting that external display support is dependent on host computer’s capabilities. |
Compatibility
Compatible with Thunderbolt and USB4 Macs, including M1/M2 and Intel, M1 iPads, and Thunderbolt 4 PCs (including those based on the Intel EVO platform). It is worth noting that M1 Pro and Max CPUs support 2 displays over Thunderbolt while base M1 and M2 Macs will only support 1 external display. Limited functionality available with USB-C 3.2 systems. Not recommended for use with Thunderbolt 3 Windows systems.
