ACT USB-C hub 3.0, 3x USB-A, card reader, PD pass-through

The ACT USB-C Hub AC7050 lets you connect three USB-A devices, an SD card and a microSD card to a laptop with a USB-C port. The compact aluminium hub supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (USB 3.0) data transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps, and includes a USB-C pass-through port with Power Delivery so your laptop can be charged while using the hub. The hub is plug-and-play and draws power from the laptop USB-C port; no separate power supply is required.

Advantages

The AC7050 provides three USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 ports for connecting flash drives, external HDDs or other USB-A peripherals, plus an SD and microSD card reader for fast file transfer. The USB-C pass-through port negotiates Power Delivery profiles with the laptop to deliver the appropriate charging power. Its compact aluminium housing (29 x 110 x 10 mm) and lightweight design (0.054 kg) make it portable and durable, and the hub is backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices.

If you need to charge the laptop while using the hub, connect a USB-C charger to the hub’s pass-through port; the hub and charger will negotiate the appropriate Power Delivery profile with the laptop. No driver installation is required for most operating systems.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use USB 3.0 or later devices and a USB-C charger that supports Power Delivery. Avoid forcing memory cards into the slots and remove flash drives safely via the operating system before unplugging.
