USB hub icybox IB-HUB1450-C31 — 10 ports, USB 3.2

The icybox IB-HUB1450-C31 is a 10‑port USB hub with USB 3.2 support designed to expand a computer’s connectivity. It offers multiple downstream ports for connecting storage drives, keyboards, mice and other USB devices, providing a centralized connection point for desktop and laptop workstations. The hub supports high-speed data transfer rates provided by USB 3.2 while maintaining backward compatibility with earlier USB generations.

Advantages

This USB hub provides ten available ports to increase the number of devices connected to a single host without requiring multiple adapters. With USB 3.2 support the hub enables faster file transfers for compatible external drives and improves responsiveness when using bandwidth-demanding peripherals. The compact, horizontal design conserves desk space and places ports within easy reach. Power management and compatibility with a wide range of USB peripherals simplify integration into existing setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting multiple external hard drives and SSDs for data transfer or backups
• Expanding available ports for keyboards, mice, printers and scanners
• Charging and connecting mobile devices and accessories
• Office and home workstations with limited native USB ports
• Temporary work setups where quick connection and disconnection of many devices is required

Key specifications

• Number of downstream ports: 10
• Interface standard: USB 3.2 (backward compatible with USB 3.1/3.0 and USB 2.0)
• Data transfer: High-speed transfer rates supported by USB 3.2
• Form factor: Compact horizontal hub for desktop placement
• Power: External power support for powering multiple devices (if applicable)

How to use

Connect the hub to a host computer using the provided USB-C to host cable or the designated upstream connector. Place the hub on a flat surface near the computer and plug peripherals into the downstream ports. For devices that require additional power, connect the hub’s external power adapter if available. The host operating system should automatically detect attached USB devices and install drivers if needed. Safely eject external storage drives through the OS before disconnecting to prevent data loss.

Recommendations

Distribute high-power devices across ports and use the hub’s external power supply when connecting multiple powered drives or charging several mobile devices simultaneously. For large file transfers use USB 3.2‑capable cables and compatible drives to achieve higher throughput.
