Description
This portable USB 3.0 hub gives you an easy way to add four USB 3.0 Type-A ports to your laptop, with individual power switches to save power. The USB port expander plugs easily into your laptop’s USB Type-A port. Plus, it’s bus-powered for easy portability.
Connect Your Current USB Devices
Use your existing USB 3.0 devices such as flash drives, mouse, keyboard and external hard drives. The 4-port USB 3.0 hub expands your computer’s USB Type-A port into four USB 3.0 (Type-A) ports, and it’s backward compatible with your older USB 2.0 devices. (USB 3.0 is also known as USB 3.1 Gen 1.)
Individual On/Off Switches
Each port on the USB 3.0 hub has its own power switch so you can turn off devices when they’re not in use. That means you can better manage power consumption for your USB devices, without having to physically disconnect the device or cable.
Easy Portability
With its compact, lightweight design, this hub is perfect for portable use. The versatile USB to USB hub is bus-powered, with no need for an external power adapter. You can travel lighter with fewer cables to carry with you.
Plug and Play
The 4-Port USB 3.0 hub installs automatically when you connect it to your laptop, so you can be up and running in seconds.

Padraig
Needed a fairly obscure part for part of the power cable on my laptop plug. Delighted to be able to get it from ValuPC. As always a simple process. Ordered and received 2 days later.
Paweł
I have ordered a TV that I couldn't get anywhere else in Ireland and Valu PC had it. Delivery took 2 days and Jim was extremely nice and helpful with everything and even delivered it to me himself. I will definitely be ordering from him again.
Leona
Delivery arrived within a day - and it was Christmas week! Headphones were really competitively priced. Delighted with them. A hassle free online purchase. Very happy with my experience.
James Smith
Was going to go to an English chain of computer shop, googled and seen valupc. I ordered a new laptop and Monitor late Sunday night and had them in my hands on Wednesday morning with everything working as expected. I would recommend Valupc as they are Irish and defiantly good value, will be back in the future.
