DELOCK 4 Port Slim USB Hub — USB 3.2 Gen 1 Host Type-C, 3× USB 5 Gbps Type-C + 1× USB 5 Gbps Type-A, Grey, Metal

Compact DELOCK 4 Port Slim USB Hub connects a USB 3.2 Gen 1 (Type-C) host to three USB 5 Gbps Type-C ports and one USB 5 Gbps Type-A port within a slim metal grey housing. The hub is powered via the host USB connection and supports data transfer speeds up to 5000 Mbit/s, providing additional ports for laptops, desktops and compatible mobile devices. Its durable metal casing and small dimensions (165×17×7 mm) make it suitable for on-the-go use while maintaining stable operation. The hub is compatible with Windows 10/11, macOS 13.1 and Linux kernels 5.15/5.19.

Advantages

The hub offers a mix of high-speed USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C and Type-A ports to connect modern and legacy peripherals without extra drivers on supported systems. A built-in adapter on the cable allows quick switching between Type-C and Type-A host connectors, preventing loss of the adapter and increasing compatibility with different host devices. The metal housing provides mechanical stability and heat dissipation, while the slim form factor minimizes space usage and fits easily into bags alongside laptops and tablets.

Suitable for

• Expanding USB ports on ultrabooks and laptops with Type-C or Type-A host ports
• Connecting multiple USB storage devices, card readers and external enclosures
• Using high-speed peripherals that require up to 5 Gbps data transfer
• Portable setups for travel, office and home use

Key specifications

• Host interface: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (Type-C) with integrated adapter to Type-A
• Downstream ports: 3 × USB Type-C (5 Gbps), 1 × USB Type-A (5 Gbps)
• Supported data transfer rate: up to 5000 Mbit/s (USB 3.2 Gen 1)
• Power supply: bus-powered via host USB connection (device power depends on host output and number of connected devices)
• Enclosure material and color: metal, grey
• Dimensions: 165 × 17 × 7 mm
• Operating system compatibility: Windows 10/11, macOS 13.1, Linux kernel 5.15 / 5.19

How to use

Connect the hub to a computer, laptop or compatible mobile device using the integrated cable with the appropriate host connector (Type-C or the attached Type-A adapter). Plug required peripherals into the available Type-C or Type-A downstream ports. The hub is bus-powered, so no external power adapter is necessary for typical USB devices; ensure the host provides sufficient power when multiple devices are connected. The host operating system should automatically recognize the hub and connected devices on supported platforms.

Recommendations

For stable performance when using several power-hungry devices simultaneously (for example multiple external HDDs or high-current peripherals), connect fewer devices at once or use devices with their own power supply. Keep the hub in a well-ventilated area to allow heat dissipation from the metal housing. Avoid placing heavy objects on the hub and disconnect safely via the host operating system before removing storage devices.
