Anker Hub: 1 Port to 4 Ports!

Anker's 332 USB-C 5-in-1 Hub is currently available for $18, offering a significant discount from its usual $25 price.

This versatile hub expands a single laptop USB-C port into four distinct connections. It features a 4K HDMI output, two USB-A 3.0 ports with 5 Gbps data transfer speeds, and a dedicated 100W USB-C port for pass-through charging. This setup allows for simultaneous connection to an external monitor, peripherals, and laptop charging.

The hub supports up to 85W of pass-through charging, meaning a 100W source charger connected to the PD-in port can deliver 85W to the laptop while powering connected devices. This power delivery capability is sufficient for charging MacBooks under normal usage conditions.

It's important to note that the 100W USB-C port is strictly for charging and does not support data transfer. Data connectivity for USB-C devices must utilize the separate 5 Gbps data port or the USB-A ports. The hub is compatible with USB-C, USB4, and Thunderbolt connections, including macOS 12+, Windows 10/11, and ChromeOS, but explicitly excludes Linux support. The HDMI output supports 4K at 30Hz, suitable for general use but not ideal for high-motion content.

Anker provides an 18-month warranty with the 332 hub, underscoring their commitment to customer service for their USB accessories.
