About this item
Expand the connectivity of your USB4 device using the USB4 Hub from OWC. Compatible with Windows, Mac, Chrome, iPadOS, and Ubuntu, this hub connects to your host system using a USB-C port that operates using the USB4 standard and provides up to 81W of charging power. Also available are two USB4 ports that each support data, DP Alt Mode, and 15W of power, two USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports that each support 15W of power, and an HDMI 2.1 port. The HDMI port supports one 8K/60 Hz display and the USB4 ports support one 4K/240 Hz display, each of which may be used individually or together. Also supported is one 4K/120 Hz display or two 4K/60 Hz displays. Included is a 100W external power supply and a 31" 40 Gb/s USB4 cable.
Full USB4 Speed for the Desktop Setup You Actually Use
Most USB-C hubs cap your laptop at 10 Gb/s. Your USB4 laptop is built for four times that. OWC's USB4 Hub runs at the full 40 Gb/s your hardware is already capable of, so you finally get the performance you paid for instead of a hub holding you back. Two fast drives running at once instead of waiting in line for an open port. A monitor that just lights up the second you plug it in. A laptop that stays charged without a second brick cluttering your desk. One USB4 cable, everything live, nothing slowing you down.
Made for Your Desk
Photographers, editors, multi-drive workflows, or just a laptop that ran out of ports. If you sit at a desk and need more from your USB4 connection, the OWC USB4 Hub is built for you. The Shoot Is Done, the Card Is In, You're Editing Pull footage off a card reader while an SSD backs up your archive at the same time. You Need a Second Screen, Not a Second Cable HDMI 2.1 plugs your monitor in directly, so no dongle hunting before a meeting. Your Laptop Stays Charged without a Second Brick Up to 81W flows through the same cable as your data and display. You Added an Accessory and It Just Worked Two USB-C ports are there for the adapter, the second drive, or whatever shows up that you didn't plan for.
Disconnect in One Click
OWC Dock Ejector unmounts every drive connected to the OWC USB4 Hub in a single click. All data written, all drives safely disconnected, ready to unplug.
OWC 40 Gb/s USB4 Cable Included
The OWC USB4 Hub comes with a 31" OWC USB4 that runs at 40 Gb/s. But if your workflow demands a different length to make the connection, OWC USB4 Active Optical Cables are a great choice.
