How to use

Place the hub on a stable surface near your host device and connect the integrated USB Type-C cable to the host's USB-C port. After connection, the host operating system should recognise the hub and attached devices automatically; no additional drivers are typically required for modern operating systems supporting USB 3.2 Gen 1. Connect USB peripherals to the hub's ports; for high-speed storage devices, ensure cables and devices support USB 3.2 Gen 1 to achieve the 5000 Mbit/s transfer rate.

Recommendations

For best results, connect high-bandwidth devices (external SSDs, video capture devices) directly to the hub while avoiding excessive simultaneous transfers that may share available bandwidth. Keep the hub on a flat, well-ventilated surface and use quality USB-C cables to maintain optimal data throughput and device stability.
