USB-C Hub with PD Input - Model Options

A laptop with two USB-C ports runs out of places to plug things quickly. This hub connects through one USB-C host port and adds four USB-A ports, with a PD input for a charger of its own.

? Keep the mouse, drive and keyboard connected at once - Four USB 3.0 ports give the peripherals a shared place instead of taking turns on the laptop.

? Feed power in while the devices stay plugged - The hub carries a PD input labelled up to 100 W, so the charger connects to the hub rather than the laptop.

? Pick the model whose ports do what you need - The listed options differ in how charging and data roles are assigned, so check the option before ordering.

Four USB-A ports from one USB-C connection

Set-up is a chain: the hub's USB-C cable goes to the laptop, the PD charger goes into the hub's power input, and the peripherals stay in the USB-A ports. That way the charger and the accessories share one connection point on the laptop.

Pass-through charging is the part that varies. The PD input rating describes what the hub can accept; how much power reaches the host depends on the exact model and on the charger. Read the option you select rather than assuming all five behave the same.
