Use Cases & Applications

Student Workstations: Connect your wireless mouse, external keyboard, USB flash drive, and webcam to a single-port laptop. The UGREEN hub transforms limited connectivity into a complete study setup, especially useful during online classes or group projects.

Hot-Desking Offices: Switch seamlessly between your personal USB-C MacBook and a company-issued USB-A desktop computer. The dual-interface design eliminates the “wrong cable” problem when moving between workstations throughout the day.

Library & Computer Lab Settings: The 1-meter cable lets you position the hub on your desk while the computer tower sits on the floor or a shelf. Students can quickly connect their own peripherals without crawling under desks to reach back-panel ports.

Business Travel: Pack a single hub that works with airport lounge computers, hotel business centers, and your own devices. The lightweight aluminum body withstands daily bag transport better than plastic alternatives.

Home Office Ergonomics: Route the cable to the side of your monitor stand for easy access to USB ports. This setup keeps cable management clean while providing convenient connections for charging cables, presentation clickers, or document scanners.

Important Note: This hub is bus-powered, meaning it draws power from your computer. For high-power devices like portable hard drives or charging tablets, consider connecting them directly to your computer or using a powered USB hub. The hub does not support video output or fast charging protocols—it’s optimized for data peripherals and low-power accessories.
