Axagon HMC-6GLN hub USB 5Gbps, 2x USB-A, USB-C, HDMI 4k/60Hz, RJ-45, PD 100W, cable USB-C

The multi-port USB-C 5Gbps AXAGON HMC-6GLN GLASS 6in1 hub expands your laptop, computer or phone with six ports. You connect your laptop to the hub via a 20 cm long USB-C cable. You immediately have a connection for a monitor, three USB devices and an RJ-45 connector for a Gigabit Ethernet network. You also get the possibility to supply laptop using Power Delivery technology at the same time. The port replicator will provide you with a simple and compact 6in1 docking station for modern laptops.

The USB hub offers three USB 5Gbps outputs, two with standard USB-A and a third with USB-C data connector. Transfer rate is up to 5Gb/s thanks to USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface. The hub can permanently connect several external drives simultaneously and also allows charging of phones and tablets with up to 1.5A/5V current. From the hub, you can easily charge e.g. Android smartphone, Apple iPhone, Apple iPad etc.

Another USB-C connector is reserved only for charging phones or laptops using Power Delivery 3.0 technology with up to 100W of power. Connect a suitable USB-C Power Delivery charger into the hub and connect the hub to a laptop that supports Power Delivery. This saves one USB-C port.

The HDMI output enables the connection of an external monitor, TV or projector with a resolution of up to 4K/60Hz Ultra HD, 2K/144Hz Quad HD or 1080p/240Hz Full HD and the transmission of multi-channel audio. Thanks to HDR support, you can enjoy a significantly expanded range of colours and contrasts without limitations.

Gigabit network card extends your computer by a fast and stable network connection, adds the missing RJ-45 network connector or another network card.

The compact aluminum body not only looks great, but also provides mechanical durability and passive cooling. The glossy upper part with a decent backlit logo underlines the premium look of the hub.

USB-C hub is an ideal accessory for laptops without USB-A connectors and video output. You can use your current USB peripherals without having to purchase new ones. Thanks to the Plug and Play and Hot Plug functions, connecting the hub itself is very simple without complicated installation, and peripherals can also be easily connected and disconnected while the computer is running.

For the hub to function properly, your laptop's USB-C port must support video output (DisplayPort Alternate Mode or Thunderbolt 3, 4 and above) and Power Delivery powered.

The hub can easily connect to phones with a USB-C connector. For example, you can connect a flash drive, keyboard, mouse, display, TV or projector to the phone.
