Important Notes

FAQs

Why can’t I use my USB-C devices with a USB 3.0 port?

You can only use USB-C devices with a USB-C port.

Why does the Anker USB C hub not work with my MacBook Pro?

The MacBook Pro is not compatible with the Anker USB C hub.

Why can’t I use my HDMI cable to connect my MacBook Pro to the monitor?

The HDMI cable is not compatible with the MacBook Pro.

When an external hard drive is attached to the hub and running, does it draw power from the laptop or from the hub’s power supply?

If you don’t want to charge your laptop via the PD in port on the hub, you don’t have to connect a power adapter to the hub; the hub will draw the power needed from the laptop it’s connected to.

Does a USB-C hub need to be powered?

It is possible to use some USB hubs without a power supply, however, doing so may prevent the USB hub or certain high-power USB peripherals from operating. It is always recommended to use an included power supply with a USB hub when possible.

Do USB-C hubs need drivers?

No drivers or software are required for the USB hub to work with your operating system. The USB hub works independently of software and works with any operating system.

Does the quality of the USB-C hub matter?

The most advanced USB-C docking stations have newer ports with technologies, like Thunderbolt 3, that support faster charging and faster data transfer.

How many devices can USB-C hub support?

You can connect as many USB hubs as you want in a daisy chain. However, the number of devices that can be connected to each individual hub is limited. The maximum number of devices that can be connected to a single USB hub is 127. This includes both downstream and upstream devices.

How much power does a USB-C hub use?

Those latter two purposes don’t require much, but it can matter with just 12W to play with. When plugged into a USB-C power adapter, however, the dock can reserve up to 25.5W from up to 100W of power delivered through the adapter: 1.5W for itself and up to 12W for each of the Type-A ports.

How many USB-C ports does a hub have?

The 4-PORT USB-C USB HUB allows you to connect your various USB-C devices to your USB-C computer via a single hub. It will allow you to connect up to 4 USB-C devices and peripherals to the USB-C port of your computer: mouse, keyboard, hard drive, USB key, printer, smartphone, etc.

Can USB hubs transmit data?

This self-powered USB hub gets power from a wall electrical plug. As such, each of the seven USB ports can supply power as well as transfer data.

Why does the USB hub need power?

Because a powered hub uses mains power, it can give every device connected to it the maximum voltage that USB allows. So, not only can it run more devices than an unpowered hub, it can do so at full power, without any drops in performance.
