The AXAGON HMC-12GM2 GEN2COMBO 12in1 multiport USB-C 10Gbps hub expands your laptop, computer, or phone with eleven ports and an external box for an M.2 drive.
You can easily and quickly connect up to two monitors, four USB devices, a Gigabit Ethernet network, headphones, an SD card reader, and an NVMe or SATA M.2 SSD to your computer via the reversible USB-C connector. You also get the option to power a laptop using Power Delivery technology at the same time. The USB-C hub gives you a simple and compact 12in1 docking station for notebooks such as the MacBook Air or Pro.
The USB hub offers three USB outputs with standard USB-A connectors. Two provide 5Gbps speeds, and a third provides 10Gbps speeds for more demanding devices. It also offers a USB-C 10Gbps data connector. The hub can also handle the permanent connection of two external drives simultaneously. Thanks to the fast USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface, the hub's transfer rate is up to 10Gbps.
The second USB-C connector is reserved only for powering and simultaneous charging of laptops using Power Delivery 3.0 technology with power of up to 100W. Connect a suitable USB-C Power Delivery charger to the hub and connect the hub to a laptop that supports Power Delivery. This saves one USB-C port.
HDMI and DisplayPort outputs provide high-quality video. Whether used alone or simultaneously, the ports offer resolutions up to 4K/60Hz Ultra HD and support multi-channel audio transmission. High refresh rates at popular gaming resolutions of 2K/144Hz or FullHD/240Hz are also supported. Thanks to HDR (high dynamic range) support, you can enjoy a significantly expanded range of colors and contrast without restrictions. For the video outputs to work properly, the laptop must have a USB-C port with DisplayPort Alternate Mode (DP Alt Mode) support or a Thunderbolt 3 port and above.
You can connect an NVMe or SATA M.2 SSD thanks to the built-in slot on the back. The multiport hub thus becomes an external drive. M.2 cards can be single-sided or double-sided up to a size of 22x80 mm. The external M.2 box has no capacity limitations for SSDs and supports modern functions such as TRIM, UASP, and reading S.M.A.R.T. disk status monitoring information.
The Gigabit network card extends your computer with a fast and stable network connection, adding a missing RJ-45 network connector or another network card.
The card reader supports all versions of SD and microSD cards including SDXC and microSDXC with capacities up to 2TB. Thanks to the high-speed USB interface, you can make the most of the potential of modern memory cards. The card reader enables simultaneous handling of cards in both slots and direct copying between them.
The elegant aluminum body ensures not only mechanical durability, but also passive cooling. Active cooling is provided by a silent integrated fan, which cools both the M.2 drive and the body of the hub itself. You will also appreciate the finely textured surface, which does not retain fingerprints. The port replicator is the ideal accessory for laptops lacking USB connectors, memory card slots, or video outputs. The 50 cm USB-C cable is detachable and can be replaced with a longer cable if needed.
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. The hub is also suitable for phones with a USB-C connector. For example, you can connect a flash drive, keyboard, mouse, display, TV, or projector to the phone.
