USB-hub Akasa Connect4C 4-IN-1 zwart

The Akasa Connect4C 4-IN-1 Black is a compact USB 2.0 hub that expands a single USB port into four, supporting data transfer rates up to 480 Mbit/s. With its small footprint (50 mm x 50 mm x 18 mm) and a short 0.17 m cable, the hub is designed for convenient desktop placement and easy connection to laptops or desktops. The hub draws power directly from the host USB port and is compatible with Windows and Mac OS X systems, providing a straightforward way to add additional USB connectivity without external power supplies.

Advantages

The device offers four additional USB 2.0 ports in a compact enclosure, enabling connection of multiple peripherals such as keyboards, mice, flash drives and other low-power USB devices. Its small size and lightweight design make it unobtrusive on a workspace and simple to transport. Native USB power eliminates the need for an external adapter for typical low-power peripherals, while broad OS compatibility ensures plug-and-play operation on common systems.

How to use

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use the Akasa Connect4C with low- to moderate-power peripherals such as keyboards, mice and flash drives. If you need to operate several high-current devices (external hard drives, some smartphones during charging), consider using a powered hub with its own external power supply to prevent underpowering or unstable connections.
