Origin Storage Docking Station - 2x USB 3.2 Ports & 2x USB-C Ports

The Origin Storage Docking Station - 2x USB 3.2 Ports & 2x USB-C Ports by DELOCK is a wired USB hub designed to expand a computer's external connectivity. It provides two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports and two USB-C (Gen 1) ports in a compact grey housing, enabling connection of multiple peripherals such as external drives, keyboards, mice and mobile devices while maintaining USB 3.2 Gen 1 transfer performance over a single host connection.

Advantages

This docking station offers straightforward wired connectivity with a mix of Type-A and Type-C ports to accommodate modern and legacy devices. The hub supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 data rates for compatible devices, and its grey enclosure is compact for desktop or mobile use. The combination of ports reduces the need for multiple adapters and simplifies cable management when connecting several peripherals to one host port.

Suitable for

• Connecting external hard drives and SSDs for data transfer and backup
• Attaching keyboards, mice and other input devices to laptops or desktops
• Charging and syncing smartphones, tablets and USB-C accessories (subject to host power limits)
• Expanding the number of available USB ports on thin laptops or single-port devices

Key specifications

• Host interface: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1) Type-A + Type-C
• Port count: 4 external ports (2 × USB-A 3.2 Gen 1, 2 × USB-C Gen 1)
• Data interface standard: USB 3.2 Gen 1 transfer rates (up to 5 Gbps, device dependent)

• Colour: Grey
• Form factor: compact desktop/mobile hub

How to use

Connect the docking station to a host computer using the integrated USB connector that matches the host port (Type-A or Type-C as provided). Once connected, the host operating system should detect the hub and any attached devices automatically. Plug peripherals into the available USB-A or USB-C ports. For storage devices, allow the OS to complete device mounting or driver installation before transferring files. Ensure that high-power devices are connected with awareness of the host's power delivery capabilities; some devices may require their own power source.

Recommendations

Use the hub on a stable surface and avoid excessive bending of the integrated cable. For reliable high-speed data transfers, use USB 3.2 Gen 1 compatible cables and devices. If connecting multiple power-hungry devices, connect them one at a time and verify host power limits to prevent disconnects.
