SKU CH-TDFY-N9T5R

Adds gigabit Ethernet and three USB 3.0 ports to Type-C laptops via a compact aluminum hub

  • Gigabit Ethernet adds stable wired internet at 10/100/1000Mbps
  • Three USB 3.0 ports transfer data up to 5Gbps for drives and peripherals
  • Aluminum alloy shell dissipates heat and resists scratches during daily use
  • Plug-and-play design works instantly across Windows, macOS and Linux systems
  • Compact lightweight body fits in a bag for travel or desk setups

Portable USB-C connectivity hub

This SMUGDESK hub adds a Gigabit Ethernet port and three USB 3.0 ports to laptops and tablets that only have USB-C sockets. The aluminium alloy casing provides heat dissipation and scratch resistance for daily transport. It is aimed at mobile professionals who need a stable wired network link and extra peripheral connections without carrying a bulky dock.

Replaces missing built-in ports

The hub restores a full-size RJ45 jack and multiple USB-A sockets that modern ultrabooks often omit. The upgrade is worth it when Wi-Fi is unreliable or when you regularly attach flash drives, external SSDs, keyboards or mice simultaneously. It does not suit users who need video output, card readers or power delivery charging through the same adapter.

Sustained workload behaviour

The integrated aluminium body acts as a passive heatsink, keeping the controller cool during long file transfers or extended video calls. Gigabit Ethernet maintains consistent 10/100/1000Mbps speeds without the latency spikes common on wireless links. USB 3.0 ports sustain 5Gbps throughput for multiple drives at once, avoiding the thermal throttling seen in smaller plastic dongles.

Questions about this item

What size USB-C port does the hub plug into?

The hub uses a standard USB-C male connector that fits any Type-C port on laptops, ultrabooks or tablets.

Does the hub need drivers or external power to work?

It is plug-and-play with no driver installation and draws all power from the host USB-C port.

Can I replace the Ethernet jack or USB ports if they wear out?

The RJ45 jack and three USB 3.0 ports are fixed on the aluminum body and are not user-replaceable.
