Hub USB GrauGear G-HUB2C2A-10G — 4 porte USB 3.2 Gen 1 (2x Type-C, 2x Type-A), 10 Gbit/s, 100 W, alluminio, grigio

The GrauGear G-HUB2C2A-10G is a compact 4-port USB hub with a USB-C host connector and four downstream USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports (2x Type-C, 2x Type-A). It offers data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s, power delivery up to 100 W, and an aluminium grey housing. The integrated 20 cm cable and slim dimensions (approx. 30 × 110 × 11 mm) make the hub suitable for mobile and desktop setups where additional high-speed USB ports and charging capability are required.

Advantages

The hub provides simultaneous high-speed connectivity for both Type-C and Type-A devices, supporting up to 10 Gbit/s on each downstream port class. Its aluminium housing contributes to a compact, durable design and helps dissipate heat during sustained transfers. The built-in cable simplifies use with laptops or small desktops, and the 100 W power delivery support allows charging of compatible hosts or connected devices while transferring data.

Suitable for

• Connecting external SSDs, HDDs and flash drives requiring USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds
• Attaching keyboards, mice and other USB peripherals while maintaining available ports
• Charging laptops or devices that accept up to 100 W via USB-C power delivery
• Expanding port options on thin laptops and tablets with a single USB-C host port

When it may not be suitable

The hub uses USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also referred to as USB 3.1 Gen 1) with a maximum practical throughput of 10 Gbit/s; it is not a replacement for USB4 or Thunderbolt 3/4 when higher bandwidth or video passthrough is required. Devices that require dedicated drivers or non-standard power negotiation may not function as intended through a simple USB hub.

Key specifications

• Ports: 4 downstream ports (2x USB-C, 2x USB-A)
• Host interface: USB-C (USB 3.2 Gen 1)
• Downstream interface: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (Type-A and Type-C)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Power delivery: up to 100 W
• Housing material: aluminium
• Colour: grey
• Integrated cable length: 20 cm
• Approximate dimensions: 30 × 110 × 11 mm

How to use

Connect the integrated USB-C cable to a host device's USB-C port (or to a compatible adapter if using a different host input), then attach downstream devices to the available Type-C or Type-A ports. The hub supports hot-plugging, so devices can be connected or disconnected while the host is powered. For charging, ensure the host and the connected device negotiate power delivery; the hub supports power delivery up to 100 W but actual charging behavior depends on host and peripheral capabilities.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your host supports USB-C data and power delivery if you need charging through the hub
• Confirm connected devices are compatible with USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds and do not require Thunderbolt-class bandwidth
• Check whether a longer cable or a powered hub is needed for your setup; this model has an integrated 20 cm cable and no dedicated external power supply

Recommendations

For best performance, connect high-bandwidth storage devices directly to the hub when other high-traffic peripherals are not sharing the same hub ports. Use the aluminium housing model on flat, stable surfaces to allow passive heat dissipation during prolonged transfers and verify power delivery negotiation when connecting laptops for charging.
