Description

Plugable Rotating 4-Port USB 3.0 Bus Powered Hub

The Plugable Rotating 4-Port USB 3.0 Hub (USB3-HUB4R) is a portable, bus-powered hub that expands a single USB 3.0 port into four SuperSpeed ports. Its unique 180-degree rotating connector lets you position it for a clean, clutter-free setup on desktops, laptops, and tablets.

Data-Focused Design

This hub is designed for data transfer, not charging. It provides up to 900mA of power per port for connected devices, but it does not deliver high-current charging to phones or tablets. Ideal for USB flash drives, external hard drives (bus-powered), mice, keyboards, and other peripherals.

Maximum Compatibility with VIA VL813

Equipped with the VIA VL813 chipset (firmware 9011), the hub works with almost any USB 3.0 host, including Windows, macOS, Linux, and ChromeOS. It's backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices.

Rotating Connector for Convenience

The connector rotates 180 degrees so you can angle the hub to fit tight spaces—like between your laptop and a wall. This is especially useful for USB ports on the side or back of laptops.

Plug-and-Play

No drivers needed. Just plug it in and start connecting devices. It's the perfect travel companion for professionals who need extra ports without extra bulk.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this hub charge my phone or tablet?

No, it is bus-powered and designed for data transfer. It provides up to 900mA per port, which is sufficient for most peripherals but not for fast charging smartphones or tablets. Use the wall charger for those devices.

Why are my devices disconnecting randomly?

This can happen if the total power draw exceeds what the USB port can supply. Avoid connecting high-power devices like bus-powered external drives. Make sure your host USB port provides enough power (most laptops do).

Is the hub compatible with USB-C laptops?

If your laptop has USB-C only, you can use a USB-C to USB-A adapter to connect the hub. It will work as a standard USB 3.0 hub.

What is the maximum data speed?

The hub supports USB 3.0 SuperSpeed, providing data transfer rates up to 5Gbps when used with compatible devices and hosts.

Compact and handy

This little hub is great. I love that the USB connector rotates 180 degrees, which lets me position it however I need. It's bus-powered, so no extra cable clutter, and it works perfectly with my MacBook Pro. The 4 USB 3.0 ports are fast. Highly recommend.

Good hub, but limited power

This hub works fine for basic peripherals like a mouse, keyboard, and a flash drive. However, when I plug in a portable hard drive, it sometimes disconnects because of power limitations – bus-powered hubs can't provide much power. If you need to power high-draw devices, you might want a powered hub. Otherwise, it's a solid, compact solution.

Works but not for my use case

I bought this to connect multiple USB devices to my tablet, but the rotating connector is a bit stiff, and the hub doesn't stay in place well when the cable is pulled. Also, the bus-powered design means it may not work with power-hungry peripherals. It's okay for simple devices, but I expected a bit more.
