USB-C Hub 9-in-1 Aluminum Dock — 28° Ergonomic, 4K@60, 10Gbps, PD100W
Product description
All-in-one 9-in-1 adapter: This hub combines the ports most users need into one compact unit — 4K@60 HDMI output, one USB-C 3.2 data port, two USB-A 3.2 data ports (10Gbps), two USB-A 2.0 ports (480Mbps), SD and microSD (TF) card readers (up to roughly 104 MB/s), and a USB-C PD charging inlet that supports up to 100W passthrough. A built-in USB-C cable (approximately 1.64 ft) connects the dock to your host device.
Aluminum unibody and ergonomic build: The shell is machined aluminum rather than plastic, improving heat dissipation and giving the hub a more premium feel. Internal thermal control keeps operating temperatures below 45°C during normal use. The housing is set at a 28-degree angle and has rubber pads underneath so cables insert more easily and the hub remains steady on a desk.
Fast transfers and device guidance: Three USB 3.2 ports support data rates up to 10Gbps for rapid file movement; photographers and videographers will appreciate the SD/TF readers capable of about 104 MB/s. For wireless dongles such as mice and keyboards, use the USB 2.0 ports to avoid interference and ensure reliable low-bandwidth operation. Note: the USB-C 3.2 socket is for data only and does not provide video or PD charging capability.
4K HDMI and monitor setup: The HDMI port outputs up to 4K at 60Hz to TVs, monitors, or projectors when the host supports USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode or Thunderbolt. For a stable display connection, plug your laptop’s power adapter into the PD inlet before attaching an external monitor. If the host device lacks DP Alt Mode, video output will not be available.
PD passthrough and power recommendations: The USB-C PD port accepts up to 100W input to charge laptops and tablets while the hub is in use. For optimal results, use the original laptop charger or a supply rated at least 65W. The PD port does not carry data or video signals.
Compatibility and usage notes: Works with most Type-C computers and tablets that support data and video over USB-C, including recent MacBooks, iPads with compatible ports, and many Windows laptops. Avoid disconnecting or reconnecting the PD power while the hub is actively transferring data or driving HDMI, as this can interrupt connected devices, cause the external display to drop, or lead to data loss from external storage.

Versatile and dependable
I wanted a straightforward hub and this fit the bill. It handles several USB-A and USB-C devices at once and the integrated cable plugs right into my laptop. The HDMI output let me use an extra TV as a big display. After months of daily use it’s been rock solid.

Well-built, practical layout
Every port worked as expected. The USB 3.2 ports don’t interfere with 2.4GHz dongles when I use the dedicated USB 2.0 sockets. The rubber base prevents sliding and the angled profile makes plugging in cables easier. The cable seems sturdy too.

Exactly what I needed
Works really well and transfers quickly. The SD card reader is handy, though I’d prefer the slot in a different spot. Overall an excellent addition — highly recommended.

Cable length is very convenient
The long cable lets me use the hub off the laptop and works fine with my adjustable desk.

Makes my desk workflow smoother
As a video editor I often plug in SD cards and drives. This hub brought everything to desktop level so I stopped bending to reach my tower. Connections have been reliable and build quality feels solid.

Misleading powered label and sleep issues
Not thrilled. The listing suggested a powered hub, but it has no separate adapter — it only passes power through. Since installing it my laptop sometimes won’t wake peripherals after sleep; monitors attached to the hub stay dark.

Solid companion for a Mac mini
After a few hours of use it’s worked great. The build quality is excellent and it pairs well with my M4 Mac mini.

Good support and reliable after replacement
Update: Support sent a replacement when I reported an HDMI issue and the hub has been fine since. Original: It worked great for months, then the HDMI began flickering occasionally. I tested cables, and the problem appeared to be the hub hardware. Support handled it well.

Economical and useful, missing audio
Solid, affordable adapter with plenty of ports and a generous cable length. It has a high-speed USB-C power slot for charging phones and tablets. One downside: there’s no 3.5mm jack for headphones.
