How to use

Connect the hub to your computer using the supplied USB 3.0 cable. If higher power is required for multiple devices, plug the included external power adapter into the hub and an AC outlet. Insert your USB peripherals into any of the six USB ports; use the dedicated charging port to charge one device — note that this charging port does not support data transfer. The hub operates automatically with Plug'n'Play on supported operating systems.

Recommendations

For reliable high-speed transfers, connect USB 3.0 devices to the SuperSpeed ports and ensure the external power adapter is connected when using multiple power-hungry devices. Do not expect data transfer from the dedicated charging port; use other ports for syncing or file exchange.
