InateckUSB 3.2 Gen 2 Speed, USB C to USB Hub with 4 USB A Ports, HB2025

I was using this primarily to obtain USB-C video out to connect to a portable monitor, which worked flawlessly, consistent with other reviews. I then decided to try a few other things out.First, I switched my ethernet cable from my other dock to this dock, and it worked perfectly fine, but this dock got very hot, so I decided to leave that on my other dock. It would, in all likelihood, be fine, but I didn't want to risk it. It would be cool if they fixed that somehow, so that I could get rid of my other dock.Second, I decided to see how this would handle my ultrawide monitor via HDMI, even though I had my laptop outputting via Displayport. Initially, at 3440x1440, the resolution was very distorted. I went into the advanced display setting for the 3440x1440 monitor within Win 11, and changed the refresh rate from 60hz to 100hz (max supported by my monitor over HDMI), and it completely fixed my resolution.This dock is exactly what I needed to be able to use two PCs in parallel, while sharing a portable USB-C monitor between the two PCs. The price is also excellent for what you get. Hoping this thing lasts me a long time, I've had it for a couple months or so now.

Received product intact and on time with no problems. Shut down computer & unplugged 3 multi-terabyte-class HDDs and a BluRay player from the back of the computer, plugged this hub into a USB 3.2 port, and plugged the 4 devices into the hub. Note that each of these devices has its own, separate functioning power source--relying on this hub for any power whatsoever would be a mistake; that's not what it's for.Fired everything up. Did speed benchmarks with CrystalDiskMark (and I had run same with the devices plugged into the computer). Performance results for the HDDs were comparable. The BD worked. So, no complaints!If it goes belly up, I'll change the review, but right now, it appears to be performing per specs.

Regularly use this to connect low power consumption items like flashdrives, wireless mice, etc. Have used it to transfer data between an external hard drive before, but having more than one external hard drive plugged in at once will cause issues due to USB power delivery limitations.

Seems like an okay little hub. The cheap plastic body looks good but feels cheap and hollow.The cord is gross sticky/tacky rubber. I think it's supposed to have a "soft" feel, but it feels gross, dust sticks to it, and the surface resistance means it grabs and binds other cables.uhubctl does not work properly in linux. The port data gets cut but power stays on and the OS never gets the signal that the port has gone down or that the device went away.

This hub is small a great for travel. It is one of the few I have seen that has a USB A input cord rather than a USB C. It has worked well for me so far.

My work laptop has two Thunderbolt ports and I've been using both for video output: the first for connecting to an eGPU and the second for driving an ASUS monitor with touch and pen input. Thanks to this docking station with USB C Video+Data USB-C port, I'm glad that I can now get both Ethernet and Display output from the second Thunderbolt port.What has been tested to work (on Win 11 laptop):1. The ASUS monitor with touch and pen input still works a intended (one may need to configure it again in "Tablet PC Settings").2. The Ethernet connection is solid, at 1000/1000 Mbps.What doesn't work as expected:1. With the port for USB C Video+Data connected and Ethernet cable connected, the HDMI output only supports [email protected] Hz. The same cable+monitor works at 4K@60 Hz when connected to the laptop's HDMI port directly.2. When a DJI mic was connected to the USB-C port on the hub for the first time, the mic wasn't registered. Rebooting helped.

Good hub to use. I could not get running under win 7, but I don't think they claimed it would. But I couldn't find any drivers for it basically. But it works great under Win 10 and 11 since they pull the drivers from the online repository.Has good speed and compatibility with both USB keyboards, USB wireless mouses, and USB drives.
