The StarTech.com 4-Port USB-C and USB-A expands your ports in seconds — plug in and go.

Turn a USB-C or USB-A port on your laptop or PC into three USB-A ports (one with BC 1.2) and one USB-C port (with 15W charging)

This 4‑port USB hub lets you instantly expand a USB connection with three SuperSpeed USB‑A 3.0 ports (one BC 1.2 charging) and a USB‑C port with up to 15W charging, making it easy to connect flash drives, webcams, external storage, and more simultaneously.

Fast Charge, Even Without a Host

Deliver up to 15W from the USB‑C PD port and 7.5W from the BC 1.2 USB‑A port to power phones and tablets, whether or not the hub is connected to a computer. A 36W total power budget is shared across all ports for consistent operation.

Self‑Powered Reliability with Protection

The included 36W external adapter ensures stable charging and device operation, with built‑in overcurrent and overvoltage protection to help reduce device dropouts and host shutdown risk. Support for Wake on USB and USB event monitoring enhances usability in mixed environments.

Easy Integration

A removable 2‑in‑1 USB‑C/USB‑A host cable provides flexible connectivity across modern and legacy systems.

Sustainable Design

The hub features a 70% post‑consumer recycled (PCR) plastic enclosure and a 35% PCR TPE jacket, helping reduce environmental impact and support ESG requirements.
