The Anker PowerExpand 7-in-1 USB-C Hub turns your laptop's single USB-C port into seven versatile ports, including HDMI 4K output, SD/microSD card readers, and fast data ports. It's a compact and reliable companion for daily productivity.
Key Features
- 7-in-1 configuration: HDMI (4K@30Hz), USB-C data (5Gbps), dual USB-A (5Gbps), microSD/SD card slots, and 100W Power Delivery pass-through charging
- Slim aluminum body for easy portability
- Plug-and-play, no driver installation required
Compatibility and Usage
This hub works with any laptop or tablet that has a USB-C port supporting data and video (Alt Mode). Thunderbolt 3/4 ports are also compatible. The 100W PD pass-through allows you to charge your laptop through the hub when connected to a compatible charger—note that your charger must support at least 100W to achieve full pass-through.
Who It’s For
- Users who need extra ports on a thin-and-light laptop
- Professionals who frequently connect to external displays during meetings
- Travelers who want one small hub for multiple tasks
Things to Keep in Mind
The USB-C data port is for data only—it does not support video output. The HDMI output supports up to 4K@30Hz; for high-refresh-rate gaming, consider a Thunderbolt dock. The SD card slots support UHS-I speeds, ideal for photographers but not the fastest for large video files.
