How to use

Connect the hub’s USB Type‑A plug to a free USB port on your computer or host device. After connection the hub functions as a plug‑and‑play device; attach USB peripherals to any of the four Type‑A ports. If connected devices require higher power delivery, the hub supports USB Power Delivery through the host connection. No additional drivers are typically required for standard operating systems.
