Hub 8-in-1

One USB-C cable from the laptop, and the whole desk is connected: a 4K monitor, wired network, USB drives, SD and microSD cards, and power. Hub 8-in-1 is an aluminum bar with a 6 in braided cable, short enough to sit tidy beside the laptop instead of dangling off it.

Plug a 100 W USB-C charger into its charging port and the laptop gets 85 W; the hub keeps about 15 W for itself and the ports. With Brick 65 the laptop gets about 50 W, enough for most 13–14″ laptops in daily use. Driving a 4K monitor while charging, the case reached 104 °F after two hours: warm, not hot. More on a tidy desk in our cable guide.

The eight ports

• HDMI, 4K at 60 Hz, for one external monitor
• Gigabit Ethernet for calls that do not drop with the Wi-Fi
• Two USB-A and one USB-C data port, all 10 Gb/s
• USB-C charging input, up to 100 W pass-through
• SD and microSD card readers

Before you plug in

• Your laptop’s USB-C port must support video out (DisplayPort Alt Mode) for HDMI to work
• 4K at 60 Hz needs a monitor and an HDMI cable that support it
• One HDMI port means one external display

A Link USB-C cable between the charger and the hub carries the full 100 W. Covered by our 2-year warranty.
