RSHTECH 10Gbps USB C Hub, 4-Port USB-C 3.2 Multiport Adapter (RX04)

This is a review for the RSHTECH 4 port USB C Hub, Model RX04. Packaging is a manufacturers box with a brief instructional leaflet and the hub itself, packed in it's own plastic resealable pouch. The aluminium gunmetal grey design looks minimalist and chic with it's unobtrusive soft blue power indicator. The rubberised captive cable, with some strain relief, is 9.5" long so the hub will sit close to your device. There is a dust cover fitted to the USB Type-C connector. Warranty is for 18 months. You get 4 x USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports with a theoretical data transfer speed of up to 10Gbps provided all the USB ports, cables, and connected devices on your device also support the 10Gbps standard. The new Gen 2×2 and 2×1 mode also reduce the overhead from 20% to just 3% with the USB 3.2’s new 128b/132b encoding scheme; hence, you see better effective throughput. Actual real world speed will vary depending upon whether you are reading or writing data, file size and associated equipment. It is backwards compatible with earlier USB standards but the speed will drop accordingly. These USB version numbers are confusing and don't mean much as USB 3.0, USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.2 Gen 1 are all interchangeable and operate at 5 Gbps while USB 3.1 Gen 2 and USB 3.2 Gen 2 are the same, operating at 10 Gbps. The USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF) would like manufacturers to adopt the term 'SuperSpeed USB 10Gbps' for 3.2 Gen 2 devices. Compatible with USB-C/USB 4.0/Thunderbolt 3/4 devices. Windows, Mac OS, Linux Chrome OS, iPad OS, Android and more. NOTE: USB 3.2 ports cannot be used to charge cellphone's or other devices and are suitable for data transfer only and do NOT support charging or video streaming. It will support hard drives, flash drives, mice, keyboards, and similar USB Type-C devices, is Plug and play and no driver is required. Bottom line: If you need a small USB-C type 4 port hub that looks smart, will fit in your pocket, provides a decent level of performance whilst also providing some degree of future proofing this one from RSHTECH will suit your needs. I have bought other RSHTECH USB Hubs before. They look good, perform well and, to date, have never let me down.

This is a great little hub for pcs or laptops that need extra USB-c ports for peripherals. You get 4 ports USB-C ports, sharing the 10gbit speed, and it supplied enough power for devices that needed it. My use case came from my desktop only having 1 USB-C port - I needed more. To test this out, I had 4 devices hooked up. Webcam at 4k iPad, iPhone, and a 128GB SD card through a type C reader. All were detected and worked flawlessly. It could even charge the iPhone and iPad at the same time, but this will only be supplying USB BUS power - this is not a powered hub, so don't expect super speed charging, that's not what this device is for. Nevertheless I was impressed it could still provide charge to both at the same time. My SD read speeds were the same whether connected directly to the USB-C port or through the hub so its not causing any added latency. and i tried doing a transfer from iPhone whilst also benchmarking the SD card and browsing files on iPad and there were no issues as there was plenty of bandwidth. So if you only have 1 USB-C port and just want 3 more in a small device, this is the hub for you. With more and more devices going type C, older PCs will need hubs like this.

This product feels and looks good. An aluminium version it is clearly better looking than plastic versions offered by competitors. Works well on my Samsung laptop with OTG, my android phone and my laptop with a USB C port. With the addition of a USB C male to USB A female adapter similar to the one in the image the hub becomes more versatile. Perhaps a shame it doesn't come with one in the box maybe? I have used it now for nearly two months with no issues.

This understated but great looking compact, aluminium cased 4-port USB-C hub gets my recommendation if you're after something to expand the number of available ports by taking advantage of a free 10Gbps USB-C port. I'm using this with my PC that has the X570 Aorus Master motherboard and only a single available USB-C 3.1/3.2 Gen2 port. I have also tested it with my son's latest all-singing / all-dancing gaming laptop. Immediately recognised within windows (10 on the PC and 11 on the laptop) and worked with everything that I connected to it with matching performance compared to direct connection - portable SSDs, phone, tablet and pen drives. It even charged my Google watch - however, as charging is not supported, don't expect the same for anything more 'demanding'! I plan to get a couple of Samsung T7 Shield Portable SSDs and this hub is going to be perfect to take advantage of the full read/write speeds of up to 1,050 MB/s and 1,000 MB/s on that device. The only negative (for me) is the length of the cable - whilst perfect for laptop use, I would have liked a longer cable to be able to place the device on my desktop, instead of on top of my PC case. I guess a simple USB-C extender should take care of this though. Overall, a great little device and well priced.

I’ve been using this USB C Hub for a little while now and I mostly love it. I have used it with a Lenovo Laptop (ThinkBook 14 G2 ITL Intel i7 with 40GB RAM and 2TB NVMe SSD running Windows 11 22H2) with great success, it copies files from an external M.2 NVMe drive to another at over 900mbps and around top speed for an external 2.5in SSD that I have. However, I also have a Samsung Galaxy Book2 Business laptop and I didn’t have the same success with that. I reached out to RSHTECH customer support, and they were able to find the issue. In this case my Samsung laptop is not capable of proving enough power to the device to run the 2 or 3 external SSD/NVMe drives. The minimum requirement for power with this device is 5V3A. To be able to use this device with my Samsung Laptop, I’d need it to use an external power supply, but this is not a function that is available. Would I recommend it, hell yes, it’s a great device and works blisteringly fast when used with a compatible laptop, it’s just a shame my Samsung isn’t compatible. I’ll continue to use it with my Lenovo laptop as it works so well.

Using with MacMini. Works well. Seems to be of good construction. No issues.

I needed to move a heap of stuff around on my drives and devices. I wanted something tidy, fast and portable. This seemed to fit the bill. Spent the whole day plugging different devices in, and it seems very solid with good quality connectors. It's got a sensible length lead built into it, which seems nice and robust. An unobtrusive blue light shows it has a connection. Very pleased with it. I chose this brand because I already own a powered 7 USB a & USB C bar which I'm very impressed with but wanted something with just Cs and a smaller more portable form. . It does say it in the advert, charging is not supported. OTG is.

I guess this is not for studio use. It could not transmitted sound. However i guess I may be wrong or needing direction on how to use it.

Es el accesorio necesario para conectar dispositivos de almacenamiento externo. El MacBook Air va muy escaso de conectores.

Citroen c4 shine bold aracımda 1 adet Type-c veri giriş bağlantısı olduğu için bu ürünü aldım, tam istediğim gibi artık Type-c bellek ve akıllı telefonu aynı anda bağlayıp kullanabiliyorum, harika bir ürün, tavsiye ederim..

Der RSHTECH 4-Port USB C 3.2 Hub ist sehr gut verarbeitet. Er ist kompatibel mit meinem Windows und Linux-System und arbeitet ohne Probleme. Die Geräte wie Festplatten und USB-Sticks wurden einwandfrei erkannt. Die Datenübertragung sowie das Steamen von Videodateien funktionierten einwandfrei. Ich kann das Tool jedem empfehlen der so einen kleinen USB C 3.1 Verteiler in seinem Sortiment brauchen kann.

Está muy bien pero da problemas en los iMac del 2024. Se produce un error con el dispositivo.

Alles ok.
