A compact four-port USB-A hub in dark recycled plastic with a 61cm attached cable

STARTECH

STARTECH 4-Port USB-A Hub 5Gbps Bus Powered 61cm Cable PCR Plastic

SKU CH-WQFK-G6K9H

Four-port USB-A hub running at 5 Gbps, bus-powered with a 61 cm host cable and PCR plastic housing

  • TypeUSB
  • 4 ports expand connectivity for more peripherals
  • 5 Gbps bandwidth moves large files quickly
  • Bus powered design removes need for extra adapter
  • 61 cm host cable reaches distant ports easily
  • PCR plastic construction uses recycled material content

Portable USB-A Expansion

This four-port hub adds extra USB-A sockets to a laptop or desktop through a single upstream connection. It is suited to users who need more ports for peripherals such as keyboards, mice, flash drives or printers without installing internal hardware. The 61 cm host cable gives flexible placement on a desk or in a bag. Bus-powered operation means no external power adapter is required.

Thermals and Power

The hub draws all its power from the host USB port, so total available current is limited by that port’s specification. Under normal loads with typical low-power peripherals the device runs cool and silent because it has no active cooling. Connecting several high-draw devices at once may exceed the host port’s power budget and cause instability.

Bundled Extras

A reusable cable tie is included to keep the 61 cm host cable tidy during storage or transport. Printed product documentation provides basic setup guidance and compliance information. No driver disc or configuration software is supplied because the hub uses standard USB class drivers already present in modern operating systems.

Questions about this item

How do I install the hub and what step is often missed?

Plug the 61cm host cable into a USB-A port on the computer; the step people miss is ensuring the port supplies enough bus power for all four downstream devices.

What maintenance or replacement will this hub need later?

The PCR plastic housing and 61cm cable require no scheduled maintenance; replace the hub only if the cable tie fails or the host connector wears out.

What limit appears first under sustained use?

The 5Gbps shared bandwidth across all four ports is the first bottleneck when multiple high-speed devices transfer data simultaneously.
