Anker USB C Hub, PowerExpand 11-in-1 USB C Hub Adapter, with 4K@60Hz HDMI and DP, 100W Power Delivery, USB-C and 3 USB-A Data ports, 1 Gbps Ethernet, 3.5mm Audio, microSD and SD Card Reade
I got this just to be able to connect my MacBook using ethernet. However I like how I can expand my connections using this. Anker quality is really showing. Nice!
I have a 34″ Ultrawide 3440×1440 165Hz monitor and I was trying to find a dongle that supports high refresh rates because I was using a docking station that takes up a lot of space on my desk, I decided to try this one, is perfect, on Windows, it works perfectly at 165Hz and Mac goes up to 144Hz, that’s perfect for me, giving it 5 stars.
Like many other hubs / switches in my experience, the HDMI port loses sync and causes the monitor to blink. Switching to the DisplayPort connection solves the problem but expected more from Anke
Ich hab den Hub ein paar Monate verwendet und musste leider irgendwann feststellen, dass dort ein Defekt bei einem Port vorliegt und dafr habe ich dann den Support von Anker kontaktiert und innerhalb von 2 Tagen hatte ich einen Ersatz da.
Does every think I need, as I said in the headline, I will always look for Anker products first, so I have quite a few different devices I have never been disappointed. This one does not need to be portable, so it slightly bigger size is not an issue.
This hub is compact and adds some serious expansion to my chromebook. The only issue I found was some spotty HDMI output to a television. I got by that using the casting functionality of the chromebook.
Build quality is good and it even came with a soft carry back to protect the hub from scratches and wear.
This product does the job very well for connecting peripherals and monitor to my laptop, however I have noticed that it will drain the laptop battery if it’s left connected when the laptop is powered off.
This is the second one of these to have a port fail. This one the HDMI port no longer functions. Device is only 8 months old. When it was working it was great.
Update 4/27/23 Anker quickly responded and sent me a replacement as the hub was under warranty. I have raised rating to 4 stars because of customer service. Things break but the real sign of a company is how they handle problems. Anker handled as a good company should.
I use a Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+ daily for both work and school. This dock is an amazing addition to the tablet, especially when using Dex. However, the one disapointment I have is that this dock doesn’t seem to support the full charging speeds capable of this device. The S7+ can do 45W super-fast charging (Samsung terminology, not mine) which dynamically adjusts between 5 and 9v which this dock doesn’t seem to support. While this isn’t normally an issue, you can tell the difference when running multiple peripherals like display out, mouse, keyboard, music, etc. The charging speed slows to more of a trickle rather than the regular charging rate. It DOES charge the tablet so obviously it’s not a major issue, just a small annoyance. The usefulness of this dock far exceeds the minor setback of charging speed though to where I will gladly continue to use it.
ha tutto quello che serve e anche di pi, al tatto si sente che non una cinesata. ha anche il power delivery quindi mentre lavorate potete collegarci l’alimentazione e vi ricarica il device.
Great little deck – replaced an off-brand knock-off that stopped working after 3 months. Didn’t see the need to go full CalDigit at x3-5 the price of this Anker as a replacement.
One caveat – you can use either the DP **or** the HDMI port on an (intel) mac, but not both at the same time. No idea if it’s the same on apple silicon, but i would assume so given the general Thunderbolt multi-display limitations.
Bought this for the steam deck and it works great, but refuses to work on 2 other laptops which work fine with another dock.
Price is a bit steep for the number of ports, but Anker isn’t the new kid it once was and is starting to define prices rather than undercut competitors.
Been using this hub with a 2020 M1 MBA, a 2×2 audio recording interface, external monitor via HDMI, and a few other USB A items. Works just fine. Gets warm, but not hot (so far) and seems to be doing what I expect it to. I’m running a Baseus 100-watt charger into the USB-C power delivery port. No problems. I purchased this as an ‘open box’ item, and it arrived as-new.
I ordered 2 of these devices so I could create docking stations in 2 places. I hooked up a monitor, keyboard, mouse, high power Anker charger and various other things. Now I just move the laptop from place to place, plug in a single USB C and I’m ready to go. The devices are working flawlessly. Picture and sound quality is very good and all peripherals are doing what they are supposed to do.
Finally something that works! The Dell adaptor that came with my XPS 15 works great, but I needed a second display out and a second USB port. I tried several other hubs that either arrived DOA or refused to output the correct display resolution (3840 x 1600 ultrawide).
I saw this hub recommended on a YouTube review, so I decided to try it out since I’ve had good luck with Anker products in the past. Thankfully it works perfectly so far. I’ve got my USB KVM switch with 4 ports connected, my USB powered speakers connected, power adapter for PD, and and the monitor displaying 3840×1600 at 75 Hz over HDMI 2.0. My plan is to add a second display once Asus releases their pen & touch ProArt displays. I didn’t really need the ethernet, headphone, or SD card readers but they’re just bonuses.
This is a superb piece of kit, expanding my Dell laptop’s rather limited selection of ports. My Dell is an Inspiron with 2 USB C ports for both power and connectivity and only 1 USB A male port for everything else. I needed to expand this but didn’t want anything too heavy or unwieldy. This little beast does the job perfectly. It has ports for every connection you could want and more, including Gigabit Ethernet, 4 USB 3 A male ports, audio and an SD card reader with Micro and Mini SD card slots as well as HDMI which I will not use and have not tested. I’ve connected my keyboard, a headset and game controller to this without fuss and expect a portable hard drive to behave with no problems. Only thing is, I had to buy a higher wattage power adapter as the 65W adapter supplied with my Dell machine would not power both dock and laptop without compromising on the speed of charging. Also, my system would not boot up with anything less than the full 65W power demand, so beware, you’ll have to buy an adapter if you plan to use this which is a separate cost. All in all though, a great little dock and from a brand I’ve used time and again and in whom I trust absolutely. Keep up the good work Anker.
Ich wollte den Hub eigentlich nutzen um mein Smartphone am Desk zu nutzen statt des PC`s.
Den PC wollte ich dann nur fr aufwndige Spiele nutzen.
Tja, so modern die Technik doch ist, so schwer beschrnkt sie sich.
Technisch wre es absolut kein Problem mein Smartphone an diesem Hub zu nutzen in voller Auflsung.
Aber moment, man hat die Rechnung ja ohne Samsung gemacht.
Natrlich sperrt Samsung alle Alternativen aus, auer seine eigenen. Wr htte das gedacht. Das Geld soll natrlich ohne jeglichen technischen Grund (das brauch der Laie ja nicht wissen) zu Samsung flieen.
Hey Samsung. Ihr habt einen Kunden weniger. Gern geschehen. Ich mag es nicht so gerne mich bers Ohr hauen zu lassen. Und das Straf ich konsequent ab.
I purchased this USB-C hub to replace one from another firm purchased earlier. The old unit was hard to reliably connect to my 2020 MacBook Air without a lot of fiddling. The new Anker one “just works” (the best endorsement I can give). I operate an external disk and a USB 3 expansion hub from the Anker one to take a keyboard and mouse. All works well.
I used my LG monitor as a hub until the USB-C port died. Rather than buying a new monitor, I bought this little hub and have been happy with it so far. I took advantage of the display port to get a crisper picture. The hub does get a little hot but that is to be expected. Very convenient to have only was cable to plug to the laptop rather than 3-4 each time.
Works as expected and can reach the acclaimed 4k 60hz HDMI spec. Only issue i have found so far is that the hub will not work without PD being passed through which take away 1 star away from it as far as i am concerned
Ich hab mir den dongle als stationre Erweiterung fr mein Steam Deck bestellt. Es funktioniert perfekt. 2 Monitore 3 usb Gerte Lan. Alles perfekt. Das Laden funktioniert auch perfekt wenn man den richtigen Port nimmt.
I only paid 62.99 as I think it had been returned by someone. Great for a MacBook Air as there are only two ports on the Air and this expands that very much. Anker is a good brand.
has all the connections needed, but if the cable were longer this would be perfect as its only about 15cm…as I use a laptop stand, the laptop is about 20cm high. Anyone using a high laptop stand will have the hub hanging…if the cable were slightly longer this would look neater. I have the Dell hub as well, which has a nice long cable but thats 300 and I didnt wanna spend that agai
I have two laptop PCs that I need to be able to switch between a few times a day. This unit allowed me to make the switch using a simple USB-C plug-and-play interface. I have my widescreen monitor, 3.5mm earbuds, ethernet cable, and all peripherals connected, including a wireless keyboard and mouse that has no lag time whatsoever.
My only complaint is that the 4-sided plug-ins on the unit make it awkward to position on my desk. It doesn’t really sit flat so I have it floating behind my laptops. Also, the USB-C connection cable is very short (6″), which contributes to the awkwardness. It should be about 12″ long.
Overall 4.5*, but rounding to 5* since functionally it is flawless.
I recently bought this UCB-C HUB from Amazon to get more UCB ports. I also planned to use the HDMI port of the HUB to connect one monitor, and then use the DisplayPort of the HUB to connect my 2nd monitor with a DisplayPort to HDMI cable (Amazon Basics) I bought from Amazon. After I received this HUB product and verified, the HDMI port and USB ports on the HUB worked very well, however the DisplayPort on the HUB did not work. I tried one Dell Inspiron laptop and one HP Elitebook laptop, both could not detect the 2nd monitor through the DisplayPort on the HUB. Also, I tried another new DisplayPort to HDMI cable and the issue was same. Finally, I had to only use the HDMI port on the HUB to connect one monitor and another HDMI to HDMI cable to directly connect my 2nd monitor to the laptop, this solution was not convenient as expected but it worked.
I gave 5 stars because the technical support from Anker was very nice, he actively called me and tried to solve the problem for me. Also, the customer service from Amazon was great and their shipping was very fast beyond my expectation.
By the way, this USB-C HUB is small and looks very nice.
I have bought anchor stuff in the past and will continue to do so in the future even though I think they are a little pricey. The thing I like most about this when I was doing my ” Research “was that it had both a HDMI outlet and a CAT5 or whatever outlet in numerous USBs.
Der Hub ist geeignet fr Bildschirme bis 24″ und bei einer Auflsung von 1920×1080. Die Stromversorgung fr unsere Laptops (Lenovo E-Serie) funktioniert gut. Die Stromversorgung sollte, wenn das Gert zu warm wird, kurz getrennt werden, da sonst der Hub aussteigt. Ansonsten ist der Anker einer der besten Hubs, die wir getestet haben und das waren einige.
I got 60 fps to my TV from it from a surface pro studio laptop. I didnt get HDR to work but I had so much trouble getting 60 fps, that HDR is just a future possiblilty, though i do miss having it on films, but im using this for projector 4K TV as a laptop pc monitor now i have a keyboard and mouse on the hub. I bought the simple usbC to HDMI from MICROSOFT that cost 99$ and only got 30 FPS, advertised HDR 60 fps. its useless . (i assumed they tested it with their own product, which is a high end 2500 laptop with 2 usb ports. My mechanical keyboard didnt work at first it was recognized as a sound device. triied every driver, no luck So i bought a Samsung high speed changing usbC to big usb, just one last thing to try. And it worked!!!! be CAREFUL with this stuff.. dont ASSUME ANYTYHING IS gonna work. try different cables and the best wires too. for a PC you need at leat 60 fps . For mouse u no more lag thant 40 ms or Game mode or it will stutter unusably. This hub gets hot though. but it works and its fast and got great value for cost and good reviews on youtube as well. Im giving 5 stars because HDR is a mess and i cant expect everything to work, it might be microsoft laptotp partial support for it.
I received this hub today. I bought it to share charger, Ethernet, LG monitor, Logitech’s keyboard, mouse and headset connected via Unifying dongle, between different machines I am using at home.
Here’s my first impression after a few hours of use.
1. Normally, unifying dongle struggles in USB3 ports due to radio interference. The fact that this hub has two USB2 ports was important criteria for me. I have to say so far I had no major issues with mouse, keyboard, or the headset. Maybe the mouse is a bit jumpy upon connection of the hub to the computer, but it goes away quite quickly.
2. Ethernet works well at advertised 1Gbps.
3. HDMI port, works as advertised 4k@60Hz. But after 15 minutes of use screen went blank multiple times when connected to Lenovo T14 laptop. This is so far the only reason why I rate this device with 4 stars.
4. DisplayPort, works as advertised 4k@60Hz. I did not experience behavior similar to the one when connected via HDMI.
5. Using with Lenovo T14. All components connected to the computer via this hub worked flawlessly, with the exception of HDMI signal issue described in point 3.
6. Using with HP elitebook 840 G3. This laptop does not charge or send video signal via its only USB-C port. But it did recognize Unifying dongle and Ethernet. As this laptop has only VGA and DisplayPort, due to issue with the HDMI port on the hub, I am somewhat forced to buy an DP -> HDMI converter if I want to connect it to external monitor. A few Euros I would prefer to keep in my pocket after spending a 100 on this hub.
7. Using with 2018 iPad Pro 11″. Works at 4K@60Hz (of course with iPad’s black bars on the sides). The goal is to have large screen connected when using Lightroom Mobile and Lumafusion.
8. I am hoping this hub will work with M1 Mac I am planning to buy in a few months. Other reviewers say it does.
9. I did not have a chance yet to copy large sets of data via its USB ports.
EDIT 31.05.2022
Today I noticed that Display Port connection I’ve been using so far started working at 4k@30Hz only. I switched to HDMI, it runs at 4k@60Hz without issues I described in #3. (baffled)
This adapter is an absolute MASTERPIECE! The design is super versatile and can adapt to any need. Perfect for on-the-go and in your pocket. Every Videographer/Photographer should have this in your arsenal. Worth. Every. Penny.
This dock is good for expanding ports for laptops such as thr Microsoft Surface Pro. It allows for essy use of an additional monitor and several expansion slors for USB devices, such as a peinter, external hard drive and the like. The largest draw back is the the connection cord is so short. This results in the dock being in the way, especially I’d it has anything plugged in on the side facing the user. The user is are unable to place it behind or really anywhere that would not be in the way. Had the cord been closer 18 inches, it would allow for placing the dock out of the way and not interfering.
This hub worked well for some time. Unfortunately it developed a fault after some months. I am grateful to say that Anker provided excellent service and replaced the faulty item without issue.
It has two usb 2.0 ports for a wired keyboard and a mouse, so it’s the best choice for such users. It supports UHD 60Hz HDMI and DP output, and 80W usb-pd input. Therefore, I don’t need to plug in and out three or four plugs every time.
The body of material suppose be metal not plastic, other than that I like the product over all so far. I have used it for about two weeks. Will give more review later.
It works and works well. I had a different brand and was having a lot of issues. I have never had an issue with an Anker product and this was no exception. I have a 2021 MacBook connected to an external monitor, usb-c power, an external hard drive, network and usb drive all connected through the hub. Works really well and I highly recommend this over other brands.
I bought the hub to use with my laptop and two monitors. I have connected a mouse, keyboard, headphone, and two monitors. Only two screens works at a time. Also, I need to disconnect and connect again to get the USB working again. The price seemed good but I knew it would only one two monitors, I would have bought the next size up.
This came recommended as the best value-for-money hub of this class. I can say it performs very well in almost all aspects – charging, 1440p@100Hz, speed.
Major downside is the audio quality – lots of interference, audible pops and crackles at all times. I was considering a USB sound card, but this will expedite the process.
The hub gets quite hot and requires power to run, so have at least 100W supply.
I had purchased this product to replace my docking station. The display port does not function, even after purchasing multiple cables including one with a USB for supplemental power. I have also come to find out that the 3 USB ports do not function.
—-UPDATED——
After discussing with Anker’s great Customer Service, I had received a replacement that works exactly as stated and I have not had any issues with any of the ports. The HUB is compact and functions really great.
schade das der 11-1 kein PSE Boot untersttzt.
Achtung: Dell XPS Serie Notebooks mit 45 W Reisenetzteil werden sich beim Anschluss des 11-1 PowerExpand wegen zu wenig Strom beschweren. Ein 65W Netzteil lst das Problem.
Bei uns in Verbindung mit Windows Notebooks der Marken, Dell, HP und Lenovo im Einsatz.
2x 24″ HP Monitore ber DP und HDMI angeschlossen. Erweiterter Bildmodus funktioniert mit Full HD sehr gut.
Pros:
– metal housing, feels solid
– nice looking
– unlike similar products, this has an extra USB-C port in addition to the USB-C power input
– single connection to connect to charger, external display and USB peripherals
Cons:
– it blocks DCC signals on the DisplayPort which means brightness of the external monitor cannot be controlled from the Mac (I ended up returning and replacing with a USB-C to DisplayPort cable which allows brightness control)
– the USB-C port is just that – my Thunderbolt 3 specific peripheral didn’t work
– cable is a little short, especially when the Macbook is elevated on a laptop stand
I’m using this with my Huawei MateBook 14 AMD (2020) the DP port is giving 4k 60hz to my Samsung monitor and its powered with a 100w PD Choetech charger. It’s runs a little warm but not hot it’s plastic which at this price was disappointing but still a nice quality feel and design.
I needed a USB-C extension to reach my laptop which is on a stand otherwise its a perfect USB-C HUB for my Huawei MateBook to achieve a 4k 60hz resolution with HDR on my 4K Samsung monitor.
Works flawlessly with Huawei MateBook 14 AMD (2020)
As always, anker has made a great product with good build quality. Everything works as expected, with one small exception, my laptop now warns me that it is charging slowly despite using the same power adapter. I’m guessing this is because the laptop came with a 65w charger and it can probably be fixed by getting a 100w charger. I haven’t tested the actual charging speed though. The difference may be negligible and it doesn’t matter for my use case.
da ich mit mehrern festplatten arbeite und daten transferieren muss klappt das gert dazu super alle slots bieten hohe geschwindigkeit- geladen kann darber auch werde
Es wurde schon viel geschrieben… Einziger Kritikpunkt fr mich ist auch das sehr kurze, steife Verbindungskabel, aber ansonsten bin ich sehr happy, dass ich hier zwei externe Bildschirme mit 2560×1440 @60Hz anschlieen kann. Auch sonst luft alles fluffig. Tiptop!
I have been very pleased with this hub for the most part. Everything works exactly as advertised except the HDMI/DP ports. If you have an external monitor connected on either of those while using some full-screen applications(mostly saw this in games) when you try to go back and forth between the monitors the external ones will blank out and then come back after a second or two while it refocuses. I contacted ANKER support about it and they had me send the hub to them and they sent a new one. Same behavior. It does everything else I need to do and I don’t NEED to run my monitor through it so I just don’
This USC Hub was perfect for me. It worked straight out of the box. I have plugged my headphones, microphone and camera into the hub, and they all run smoothly. So, just what I needed for recording my podcast programme!!
This is one of the highest speced USB-C hubs and among the few that can keep a MacBook Pro charged under heavy usage and it is by far the lightest.
It replaced a similarly capable model but that one kept getting very hot, even without running an external display. This Anker PoweExpand 11+ gets barely warm to the touch running a 4K display over HDMI.
Product works better than I expected. My ipad used the wired internet connection without any set-up.
All ports work flawlessly. Get a good power supply and you won’t have any issues.
(I purchased an 87 watt power supply by Nekteck)
The Anker PowerExpand 11-in-1 USB C Hub works well with my MacBook Pro 16-inch 2019 version. I love that the Anker doesn’t get too warm like my older USB-C hub from a different manufacturer did. However, one feature that I had hoped for was to use the HDMI and DisplayPort to power two monitors. When you plug in both monitors, only one of the monitors is recognised by the operating system, and the Anker outputs the same signal to both monitors. There is no option to expand the desktop and display different applications on each monitor. To use both of my monitors to display different applications, I can only plug one of them into the Anker, and the other one directly into my MacBook Pro. I have given the product 5 stars, since this limitation is described in the product description, so it is my fault for buying a product that is not suitable to my use case.
Great product for travel. A was little disappointed because I bought it for my Mac Air M1 as a versatile hub.
1) On the move
2) Working from home with 2 big monitors
It can be done, but the cord is far too short and the whole unit is not very sturdy when everything attached. I had to get a special holder to keep it in place.
However, good for travel and for one attachment at a time . This is why I gave 4 stars rating only.
Nach anfnglichen Schwierigkeiten, aber dann dank schneller und kompetenter Untersttzung des Anker Support Teams, funktioniert mein Anker PowerExpand+ 11-in-1 USB-C Adapter Hub jetzt einwandfrei mit meinem Dell Latitude 5491 Notebook. Daher gebe ich die volle Punktzahl. Vor einem geplanten Kauf sollte man aber auf jeden Fall darauf achten, dass das Gert, das man vorhat anzuschlieen, auch die gewnschten Funktionen ber USB-C untersttzt und welches Ladegert in Frage kommt. Ich habe mir ein UGREEN 100W USB-C Ladegert besorgt, nachdem die Ladefunktion mit einem etwas schwcheren Ladegert anfangs nicht funktioniert hat. Mit einem weiteren Notebook, einem Acer Swift 3, funktionieren Ladefunktion und HDMI bzw. DisplayPort leider gar nicht. Das hat aber damit zu tun, dass das Acer Swift 3 diese Funktionen ber den USB-C Port gar nicht untersttzt, dafr kann also der Anker USB-C Hub nichts. Die Wrmeentwicklung des Anker-Gerts hlt sich in Grenzen, sie ist hnlich wie die des original Dell USB-C Hubs den ich in der Firma habe, der allerdings fast das Dreifache kostet. Das groe 11-in-1 Gert hatte ich ausgesucht, da ich auch noch eine etwas ltere Soundanlage ber Klinkenstecker daran betreibe. Auch das funktioniert einwandfrei. Mein Fazit: Ein solides, wertig aussehendes Gert, das fr Ordnung auf dem Schreibtisch sorgt und welches das lstige Ein- und Ausstpseln diverser Kabel auf ein einziges USB-C Kabel reduziert, wenn man das Notebook mehrmals pro Woche an wechselnden Arbeitspltzen benutzen will. Die gute Qualitt gilt im brigen auch fr Anker-Kabel, von denen ich schon mehrere in Gebrauch habe.
A nice and convenient hub for my Mac book pro. It has a total of 4 USB-C slots and that’s not sufficient for the devices I connect to it. This hub allows me to connect all accessories of my office setup (a monitor, wireless keyboard & mouse, power adapter and a usb device) while occupying just one USB-C slot. One minor nit pick is that the length of USB-C cable in this hub is short and is not sufficient to seat the hub comfortably on a table, when using laptop stands. Would definitely recommend it.
Da ich seit einigen Wochen mein Galaxy Tab habe, brauche ich dieses Teil, da er nur eine Buchse hat. Ein Stick, Kopfhrer, etc. hat aber vielerlei Dingse 😉
Lange Rede kurzer Sinn, dieses Teil zu bestellen, war die beste Entscheidung!
Absolute Kaufempfehlung!
I was unlucky and purchased a defective unit which had to be returned. However, the process of getting a replacement couldn’t have been easier and the customer service was absolutely brilliant. Sylvia from the Anker support team was so helpful and prompt in her communications and reassured me that the issue would be resolved asap. I had a new, fully operational unit within a few days of communicating the problem – and it’s a good product. So straightforward in a world where these issues can often be time consuming and lengthy. Thank you!
Der Adapter macht was er soll, und wie es in der Artikelbeschreibung beschrieben stand. Fr den mobilen Einsatz meines Erachtens nur bedingt geeignet, aber dafr haben wir ihn ja auch nicht gekauft.
Premium feel, light weight, Made up of good plastic. Cable should have been bit longer. No heating issue. Happy with the purchase, order to delivery took almost a month!!
Having had massive problems with packet storms caused by other makes while the host sleeps, I turned to Anker – a brand I have always found to provide excellent products at the right price point. This hub, while not as neat-looking as some competitors, performs perfectly. It has the right balance of features and size, and is at a keen price point. I have no hesitation in recommending it.
The AH has 2 Female USB-C Ports + 1 Male USB-C Plug on a Short Lead.
1. Plug the Short Lead into the PD USB-C Port, nearest to Left Hinge Corner, of the MacBook Pro M1.
2. Plug the Power Supply USB-C Plug into the AH PD USB-C Port.
3. This leaves 1 vacant USB-C Port on the MacBook and 1 vacant USB-C Port on the AH.
4. A Large Screen can be attached by either HDMI or DisplayPort.
5. Cards can be read by the dual slot Card Reader.
In my case the vacant 2 vacant USB-C Ports are used for connecting 2 Crucial X8 2TB SSDs, one for Time Machine and the other for DATA BackUp.
The 3 USB ports are usually connected to:- DVD Drive; Unifying Receiver-Logitech MX Ergo wireless Trackball; PowerBreathe/Lung Exerciser.
Apart from one minor glitch everything, mentioned above, functions as expected without conflicts.
My first attempt at expanding the MacBook Pro M1 Ports resulted in:
A. Conflict between Logitech Trackball and the Crucial SSDs, the Cursor used to become jerky and ultimately freeze when the SSDs were connected via USB.
B. MacBook M1 Screen Brightness Controls disappeared from System Preferences > Display > Display Tab and Control Centre. In the latter the Control Slider Handle disappeared, with the AH only the Control Centre problem remains.
I am very pleased to have found this Port Expansion GEM, and do not hesitate to recommend it.
Devices attached: Anker PowerPort Atom PD4 (for power), 1080p display @60GHz, 1080p webcam, Elgato Stream Deck, Logitech Unifying Receiver, and a Thunderbolt HDD.
I don’t consider myself a heavy user of the device but I own a lot of Anker products and have never had any problems. This is a necessity for my M1 MBP since there are only 2 Thunderbolt ports on the laptop. I like the number of ports on this compact hub and I use it as a docking station for WFH. It does get pretty warm, but I don’t think there is too much of an issue (there is no damage on my plastic-coated desk). It also comes in nice recyclable packaging and a travel pouch that I will probably misplace one day.
Fr den neuen Laptop mit USB-C wollte ich den Kabelwust auf dem Schreibtisch reduzieren und endlich nur noch ein Kabel als Verbindung zum Laptop nutzen. Mit diesem USB-C-Hub hat es auf Anhieb funktioniert. Auspacken, Kabel einstecken, Laptop starten. Im Betrieb wird das Gehuse nur handwarm (1 Bildschirm FHD per HDMI, USB-PD zum Laptop, etwas Peripherie wie Tastatur, Maus, Lautsprecher per USB2), und fr aktuellen Bedarf sind noch Ports frei. Erweiterter Desktop unter Windows funktioniert auf Anhieb. Um das fest verbundene USB-C-Kabel am Hub zu entlasten, habe ich noch ein krzeres USB-C-Verlngerungskabel zum Laptop angefgt. Ein guter Beginn und Abwarten, wie sich der lngere Dauerbetrieb im Home Office gestaltet.
Update 21.04.2021: Das Verlngerungskabel hat Strungen im WLAN-Empfang des angeschlossenen Laptops erzeugt. Nach Entfernen des Verlngerungskabels funktionieren der USB-C-Hub und der WLAN-Empfang wieder einwandfrei. Ursache war das Kabel, nicht der Hub.
Nach einigen Versuchen, habe ich endlich einen Hub gefunden bei dem auch alle Anschlsse Funktionieren, der Macbook geladen wird und man auch 4K 60h ohne Probleme bertragen bekommt, das alles an einem MacbookPro M1 getestet. Sehr zu hervorheben das der Hub auch noch einen USB-C Anschluss (mit 5gbits) bietet, an dem ich zB. noch eine externe Festplatte angeschlossen habe.
Wie gesagt perfekt fr mein Setting, zu Hause ein USB-C in den Macbook und alles ist angeschlossen und funktioniert.
Gute Verarbeitung, auch das Kabel scheint sehr robust zu sein, was es vielleicht ein wenig starr macht. Alle wichtigen Anschlsse sind dran, wobei ich seit Jahren einen Multiport von Satechi habe und der auch gut funktioniert, sind beim Anker Adapter noch weitere Funktionen dran… alles unterwegs dabei.
I bought this for my MacBook Pro because I wanted an Ethernet connection as well as HDMI and DisplayPort. Bonus that is has both SD and microSD slots.
I also love that it has another USB-C (3.0) port, so however many USB-C ports your computer has, the hub doesn’t take one of them up.
I have tried a few cheaper ones before shelling out for this and, well, you get what you pay for. This one is quality and I highly recommend it.
I got this just to be able to connect my MacBook using ethernet. However I like how I can expand my connections using this. Anker quality is really showing. Nice!
I have a 34″ Ultrawide 3440×1440 165Hz monitor and I was trying to find a dongle that supports high refresh rates because I was using a docking station that takes up a lot of space on my desk, I decided to try this one, is perfect, on Windows, it works perfectly at 165Hz and Mac goes up to 144Hz, that’s perfect for me, giving it 5 stars.
Ich hab den Hub ein paar Monate verwendet und musste leider irgendwann feststellen, dass dort ein Defekt bei einem Port vorliegt und dafr habe ich dann den Support von Anker kontaktiert und innerhalb von 2 Tagen hatte ich einen Ersatz da.

Works with the Steam Deck and it fits somewhat alright in the back case. I’d recommend
ha tutto quello che serve e anche di pi, al tatto si sente che non una cinesata. ha anche il power delivery quindi mentre lavorate potete collegarci l’alimentazione e vi ricarica il device.
Very good hub, you can use multiple ports at the same time and they all work fine.
Great little deck – replaced an off-brand knock-off that stopped working after 3 months. Didn’t see the need to go full CalDigit at x3-5 the price of this Anker as a replacement.
One caveat – you can use either the DP **or** the HDMI port on an (intel) mac, but not both at the same time. No idea if it’s the same on apple silicon, but i would assume so given the general Thunderbolt multi-display limitations.
Bought this for the steam deck and it works great, but refuses to work on 2 other laptops which work fine with another dock.
Price is a bit steep for the number of ports, but Anker isn’t the new kid it once was and is starting to define prices rather than undercut competitors.
with my MacBook M1.
Bought to replace a Rocketec unit which was not very good. But this seems to do the trick.
Runs very cool, seems to prefer using both USB-C sockets one for power, one for comms which isn’t ideal.
Been using this hub with a 2020 M1 MBA, a 2×2 audio recording interface, external monitor via HDMI, and a few other USB A items. Works just fine. Gets warm, but not hot (so far) and seems to be doing what I expect it to. I’m running a Baseus 100-watt charger into the USB-C power delivery port. No problems. I purchased this as an ‘open box’ item, and it arrived as-new.
I ordered 2 of these devices so I could create docking stations in 2 places. I hooked up a monitor, keyboard, mouse, high power Anker charger and various other things. Now I just move the laptop from place to place, plug in a single USB C and I’m ready to go. The devices are working flawlessly. Picture and sound quality is very good and all peripherals are doing what they are supposed to do.
Finally something that works! The Dell adaptor that came with my XPS 15 works great, but I needed a second display out and a second USB port. I tried several other hubs that either arrived DOA or refused to output the correct display resolution (3840 x 1600 ultrawide).
I saw this hub recommended on a YouTube review, so I decided to try it out since I’ve had good luck with Anker products in the past. Thankfully it works perfectly so far. I’ve got my USB KVM switch with 4 ports connected, my USB powered speakers connected, power adapter for PD, and and the monitor displaying 3840×1600 at 75 Hz over HDMI 2.0. My plan is to add a second display once Asus releases their pen & touch ProArt displays. I didn’t really need the ethernet, headphone, or SD card readers but they’re just bonuses.
This is a superb piece of kit, expanding my Dell laptop’s rather limited selection of ports. My Dell is an Inspiron with 2 USB C ports for both power and connectivity and only 1 USB A male port for everything else. I needed to expand this but didn’t want anything too heavy or unwieldy. This little beast does the job perfectly. It has ports for every connection you could want and more, including Gigabit Ethernet, 4 USB 3 A male ports, audio and an SD card reader with Micro and Mini SD card slots as well as HDMI which I will not use and have not tested. I’ve connected my keyboard, a headset and game controller to this without fuss and expect a portable hard drive to behave with no problems. Only thing is, I had to buy a higher wattage power adapter as the 65W adapter supplied with my Dell machine would not power both dock and laptop without compromising on the speed of charging. Also, my system would not boot up with anything less than the full 65W power demand, so beware, you’ll have to buy an adapter if you plan to use this which is a separate cost. All in all though, a great little dock and from a brand I’ve used time and again and in whom I trust absolutely. Keep up the good work Anker.
Prodotto leggero, comodo e funzionale, indispensabile per i laptop super sottili, privi di prese usb. Ottimo acquisto
Ich wollte den Hub eigentlich nutzen um mein Smartphone am Desk zu nutzen statt des PC`s.
Den PC wollte ich dann nur fr aufwndige Spiele nutzen.
Tja, so modern die Technik doch ist, so schwer beschrnkt sie sich.
Technisch wre es absolut kein Problem mein Smartphone an diesem Hub zu nutzen in voller Auflsung.
Aber moment, man hat die Rechnung ja ohne Samsung gemacht.
Natrlich sperrt Samsung alle Alternativen aus, auer seine eigenen. Wr htte das gedacht. Das Geld soll natrlich ohne jeglichen technischen Grund (das brauch der Laie ja nicht wissen) zu Samsung flieen.
Hey Samsung. Ihr habt einen Kunden weniger. Gern geschehen. Ich mag es nicht so gerne mich bers Ohr hauen zu lassen. Und das Straf ich konsequent ab.
I purchased this USB-C hub to replace one from another firm purchased earlier. The old unit was hard to reliably connect to my 2020 MacBook Air without a lot of fiddling. The new Anker one “just works” (the best endorsement I can give). I operate an external disk and a USB 3 expansion hub from the Anker one to take a keyboard and mouse. All works well.
I used my LG monitor as a hub until the USB-C port died. Rather than buying a new monitor, I bought this little hub and have been happy with it so far. I took advantage of the display port to get a crisper picture. The hub does get a little hot but that is to be expected. Very convenient to have only was cable to plug to the laptop rather than 3-4 each time.
Works as expected and can reach the acclaimed 4k 60hz HDMI spec. Only issue i have found so far is that the hub will not work without PD being passed through which take away 1 star away from it as far as i am concerned
Ich hab mir den dongle als stationre Erweiterung fr mein Steam Deck bestellt. Es funktioniert perfekt. 2 Monitore 3 usb Gerte Lan. Alles perfekt. Das Laden funktioniert auch perfekt wenn man den richtigen Port nimmt.
I only paid 62.99 as I think it had been returned by someone. Great for a MacBook Air as there are only two ports on the Air and this expands that very much. Anker is a good brand.
I am using since last couple of months and no issues so fa
Producto altamente confiable, muy seguro y la velocidad de transferencia cumple con lo mencionado.
sin igual.
has all the connections needed, but if the cable were longer this would be perfect as its only about 15cm…as I use a laptop stand, the laptop is about 20cm high. Anyone using a high laptop stand will have the hub hanging…if the cable were slightly longer this would look neater. I have the Dell hub as well, which has a nice long cable but thats 300 and I didnt wanna spend that agai
I have two laptop PCs that I need to be able to switch between a few times a day. This unit allowed me to make the switch using a simple USB-C plug-and-play interface. I have my widescreen monitor, 3.5mm earbuds, ethernet cable, and all peripherals connected, including a wireless keyboard and mouse that has no lag time whatsoever.
My only complaint is that the 4-sided plug-ins on the unit make it awkward to position on my desk. It doesn’t really sit flat so I have it floating behind my laptops. Also, the USB-C connection cable is very short (6″), which contributes to the awkwardness. It should be about 12″ long.
Overall 4.5*, but rounding to 5* since functionally it is flawless.
I recently bought this UCB-C HUB from Amazon to get more UCB ports. I also planned to use the HDMI port of the HUB to connect one monitor, and then use the DisplayPort of the HUB to connect my 2nd monitor with a DisplayPort to HDMI cable (Amazon Basics) I bought from Amazon. After I received this HUB product and verified, the HDMI port and USB ports on the HUB worked very well, however the DisplayPort on the HUB did not work. I tried one Dell Inspiron laptop and one HP Elitebook laptop, both could not detect the 2nd monitor through the DisplayPort on the HUB. Also, I tried another new DisplayPort to HDMI cable and the issue was same. Finally, I had to only use the HDMI port on the HUB to connect one monitor and another HDMI to HDMI cable to directly connect my 2nd monitor to the laptop, this solution was not convenient as expected but it worked.
I gave 5 stars because the technical support from Anker was very nice, he actively called me and tried to solve the problem for me. Also, the customer service from Amazon was great and their shipping was very fast beyond my expectation.
By the way, this USB-C HUB is small and looks very nice.
I have bought anchor stuff in the past and will continue to do so in the future even though I think they are a little pricey. The thing I like most about this when I was doing my ” Research “was that it had both a HDMI outlet and a CAT5 or whatever outlet in numerous USBs.
Der Hub ist geeignet fr Bildschirme bis 24″ und bei einer Auflsung von 1920×1080. Die Stromversorgung fr unsere Laptops (Lenovo E-Serie) funktioniert gut. Die Stromversorgung sollte, wenn das Gert zu warm wird, kurz getrennt werden, da sonst der Hub aussteigt. Ansonsten ist der Anker einer der besten Hubs, die wir getestet haben und das waren einige.
I got 60 fps to my TV from it from a surface pro studio laptop. I didnt get HDR to work but I had so much trouble getting 60 fps, that HDR is just a future possiblilty, though i do miss having it on films, but im using this for projector 4K TV as a laptop pc monitor now i have a keyboard and mouse on the hub. I bought the simple usbC to HDMI from MICROSOFT that cost 99$ and only got 30 FPS, advertised HDR 60 fps. its useless . (i assumed they tested it with their own product, which is a high end 2500 laptop with 2 usb ports. My mechanical keyboard didnt work at first it was recognized as a sound device. triied every driver, no luck So i bought a Samsung high speed changing usbC to big usb, just one last thing to try. And it worked!!!! be CAREFUL with this stuff.. dont ASSUME ANYTYHING IS gonna work. try different cables and the best wires too. for a PC you need at leat 60 fps . For mouse u no more lag thant 40 ms or Game mode or it will stutter unusably. This hub gets hot though. but it works and its fast and got great value for cost and good reviews on youtube as well. Im giving 5 stars because HDR is a mess and i cant expect everything to work, it might be microsoft laptotp partial support for it.
I received this hub today. I bought it to share charger, Ethernet, LG monitor, Logitech’s keyboard, mouse and headset connected via Unifying dongle, between different machines I am using at home.
Here’s my first impression after a few hours of use.
1. Normally, unifying dongle struggles in USB3 ports due to radio interference. The fact that this hub has two USB2 ports was important criteria for me. I have to say so far I had no major issues with mouse, keyboard, or the headset. Maybe the mouse is a bit jumpy upon connection of the hub to the computer, but it goes away quite quickly.
2. Ethernet works well at advertised 1Gbps.
3. HDMI port, works as advertised 4k@60Hz. But after 15 minutes of use screen went blank multiple times when connected to Lenovo T14 laptop. This is so far the only reason why I rate this device with 4 stars.
4. DisplayPort, works as advertised 4k@60Hz. I did not experience behavior similar to the one when connected via HDMI.
5. Using with Lenovo T14. All components connected to the computer via this hub worked flawlessly, with the exception of HDMI signal issue described in point 3.
6. Using with HP elitebook 840 G3. This laptop does not charge or send video signal via its only USB-C port. But it did recognize Unifying dongle and Ethernet. As this laptop has only VGA and DisplayPort, due to issue with the HDMI port on the hub, I am somewhat forced to buy an DP -> HDMI converter if I want to connect it to external monitor. A few Euros I would prefer to keep in my pocket after spending a 100 on this hub.
7. Using with 2018 iPad Pro 11″. Works at 4K@60Hz (of course with iPad’s black bars on the sides). The goal is to have large screen connected when using Lightroom Mobile and Lumafusion.
8. I am hoping this hub will work with M1 Mac I am planning to buy in a few months. Other reviewers say it does.
9. I did not have a chance yet to copy large sets of data via its USB ports.
EDIT 31.05.2022
Today I noticed that Display Port connection I’ve been using so far started working at 4k@30Hz only. I switched to HDMI, it runs at 4k@60Hz without issues I described in #3. (baffled)
This adapter is an absolute MASTERPIECE! The design is super versatile and can adapt to any need. Perfect for on-the-go and in your pocket. Every Videographer/Photographer should have this in your arsenal. Worth. Every. Penny.
This dock is good for expanding ports for laptops such as thr Microsoft Surface Pro. It allows for essy use of an additional monitor and several expansion slors for USB devices, such as a peinter, external hard drive and the like. The largest draw back is the the connection cord is so short. This results in the dock being in the way, especially I’d it has anything plugged in on the side facing the user. The user is are unable to place it behind or really anywhere that would not be in the way. Had the cord been closer 18 inches, it would allow for placing the dock out of the way and not interfering.
This hub worked well for some time. Unfortunately it developed a fault after some months. I am grateful to say that Anker provided excellent service and replaced the faulty item without issue.
It has two usb 2.0 ports for a wired keyboard and a mouse, so it’s the best choice for such users. It supports UHD 60Hz HDMI and DP output, and 80W usb-pd input. Therefore, I don’t need to plug in and out three or four plugs every time.
The body of material suppose be metal not plastic, other than that I like the product over all so far. I have used it for about two weeks. Will give more review later.
It works and works well. I had a different brand and was having a lot of issues. I have never had an issue with an Anker product and this was no exception. I have a 2021 MacBook connected to an external monitor, usb-c power, an external hard drive, network and usb drive all connected through the hub. Works really well and I highly recommend this over other brands.
I bought the hub to use with my laptop and two monitors. I have connected a mouse, keyboard, headphone, and two monitors. Only two screens works at a time. Also, I need to disconnect and connect again to get the USB working again. The price seemed good but I knew it would only one two monitors, I would have bought the next size up.
I had purchased 2 from other brands before this, and both had ports fail on them and would heat up a lot.
With this one it stays at a reasonable temperature and I have at least 6 things plugged in at once, some times 8-9 and never any issues
This came recommended as the best value-for-money hub of this class. I can say it performs very well in almost all aspects – charging, 1440p@100Hz, speed.
Major downside is the audio quality – lots of interference, audible pops and crackles at all times. I was considering a USB sound card, but this will expedite the process.
The hub gets quite hot and requires power to run, so have at least 100W supply.
Es un buen hub, se calienta, pero la transmisin es buenaaun as, la relacin calidad precio podra ser mejorable.
I had purchased this product to replace my docking station. The display port does not function, even after purchasing multiple cables including one with a USB for supplemental power. I have also come to find out that the 3 USB ports do not function.
—-UPDATED——
After discussing with Anker’s great Customer Service, I had received a replacement that works exactly as stated and I have not had any issues with any of the ports. The HUB is compact and functions really great.
schade das der 11-1 kein PSE Boot untersttzt.
Achtung: Dell XPS Serie Notebooks mit 45 W Reisenetzteil werden sich beim Anschluss des 11-1 PowerExpand wegen zu wenig Strom beschweren. Ein 65W Netzteil lst das Problem.
Bei uns in Verbindung mit Windows Notebooks der Marken, Dell, HP und Lenovo im Einsatz.
2x 24″ HP Monitore ber DP und HDMI angeschlossen. Erweiterter Bildmodus funktioniert mit Full HD sehr gut.
Pros:
– metal housing, feels solid
– nice looking
– unlike similar products, this has an extra USB-C port in addition to the USB-C power input
– single connection to connect to charger, external display and USB peripherals
Cons:
– it blocks DCC signals on the DisplayPort which means brightness of the external monitor cannot be controlled from the Mac (I ended up returning and replacing with a USB-C to DisplayPort cable which allows brightness control)
– the USB-C port is just that – my Thunderbolt 3 specific peripheral didn’t work
– cable is a little short, especially when the Macbook is elevated on a laptop stand
I’m using this with my Huawei MateBook 14 AMD (2020) the DP port is giving 4k 60hz to my Samsung monitor and its powered with a 100w PD Choetech charger. It’s runs a little warm but not hot it’s plastic which at this price was disappointing but still a nice quality feel and design.
I needed a USB-C extension to reach my laptop which is on a stand otherwise its a perfect USB-C HUB for my Huawei MateBook to achieve a 4k 60hz resolution with HDR on my 4K Samsung monitor.
As always, anker has made a great product with good build quality. Everything works as expected, with one small exception, my laptop now warns me that it is charging slowly despite using the same power adapter. I’m guessing this is because the laptop came with a 65w charger and it can probably be fixed by getting a 100w charger. I haven’t tested the actual charging speed though. The difference may be negligible and it doesn’t matter for my use case.
da ich mit mehrern festplatten arbeite und daten transferieren muss klappt das gert dazu super alle slots bieten hohe geschwindigkeit- geladen kann darber auch werde
Replaced large Dell hub. So compact – easy for travel.
Es wurde schon viel geschrieben… Einziger Kritikpunkt fr mich ist auch das sehr kurze, steife Verbindungskabel, aber ansonsten bin ich sehr happy, dass ich hier zwei externe Bildschirme mit 2560×1440 @60Hz anschlieen kann. Auch sonst luft alles fluffig. Tiptop!
I have been very pleased with this hub for the most part. Everything works exactly as advertised except the HDMI/DP ports. If you have an external monitor connected on either of those while using some full-screen applications(mostly saw this in games) when you try to go back and forth between the monitors the external ones will blank out and then come back after a second or two while it refocuses. I contacted ANKER support about it and they had me send the hub to them and they sent a new one. Same behavior. It does everything else I need to do and I don’t NEED to run my monitor through it so I just don’
It’s hard to get one of these that has this amount of connectors and even better 4k at 60hz
This is just a must have for creatives with a mobile workflow.
This USC Hub was perfect for me. It worked straight out of the box. I have plugged my headphones, microphone and camera into the hub, and they all run smoothly. So, just what I needed for recording my podcast programme!!
This great quality, compact solution provides all the necessary connectivity.
Im Mobilen Einsatz so wohl mit Ipad pro 2021 oder am macbook Air M1 alles tip top
This is one of the highest speced USB-C hubs and among the few that can keep a MacBook Pro charged under heavy usage and it is by far the lightest.
It replaced a similarly capable model but that one kept getting very hot, even without running an external display. This Anker PoweExpand 11+ gets barely warm to the touch running a 4K display over HDMI.
Product works better than I expected. My ipad used the wired internet connection without any set-up.
All ports work flawlessly. Get a good power supply and you won’t have any issues.
(I purchased an 87 watt power supply by Nekteck)
Excellent Product, i highly recommend this to anyone using Mac or Windows Laptop
Great product for travel. A was little disappointed because I bought it for my Mac Air M1 as a versatile hub.
1) On the move
2) Working from home with 2 big monitors
It can be done, but the cord is far too short and the whole unit is not very sturdy when everything attached. I had to get a special holder to keep it in place.
However, good for travel and for one attachment at a time . This is why I gave 4 stars rating only.
Nach anfnglichen Schwierigkeiten, aber dann dank schneller und kompetenter Untersttzung des Anker Support Teams, funktioniert mein Anker PowerExpand+ 11-in-1 USB-C Adapter Hub jetzt einwandfrei mit meinem Dell Latitude 5491 Notebook. Daher gebe ich die volle Punktzahl. Vor einem geplanten Kauf sollte man aber auf jeden Fall darauf achten, dass das Gert, das man vorhat anzuschlieen, auch die gewnschten Funktionen ber USB-C untersttzt und welches Ladegert in Frage kommt. Ich habe mir ein UGREEN 100W USB-C Ladegert besorgt, nachdem die Ladefunktion mit einem etwas schwcheren Ladegert anfangs nicht funktioniert hat. Mit einem weiteren Notebook, einem Acer Swift 3, funktionieren Ladefunktion und HDMI bzw. DisplayPort leider gar nicht. Das hat aber damit zu tun, dass das Acer Swift 3 diese Funktionen ber den USB-C Port gar nicht untersttzt, dafr kann also der Anker USB-C Hub nichts. Die Wrmeentwicklung des Anker-Gerts hlt sich in Grenzen, sie ist hnlich wie die des original Dell USB-C Hubs den ich in der Firma habe, der allerdings fast das Dreifache kostet. Das groe 11-in-1 Gert hatte ich ausgesucht, da ich auch noch eine etwas ltere Soundanlage ber Klinkenstecker daran betreibe. Auch das funktioniert einwandfrei. Mein Fazit: Ein solides, wertig aussehendes Gert, das fr Ordnung auf dem Schreibtisch sorgt und welches das lstige Ein- und Ausstpseln diverser Kabel auf ein einziges USB-C Kabel reduziert, wenn man das Notebook mehrmals pro Woche an wechselnden Arbeitspltzen benutzen will. Die gute Qualitt gilt im brigen auch fr Anker-Kabel, von denen ich schon mehrere in Gebrauch habe.
I AM SATISFIED, THE DELIVERY ARRIVED ON TIME, IT HAS MANY OUTPUTS FOR ALL CABLES, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
A nice and convenient hub for my Mac book pro. It has a total of 4 USB-C slots and that’s not sufficient for the devices I connect to it. This hub allows me to connect all accessories of my office setup (a monitor, wireless keyboard & mouse, power adapter and a usb device) while occupying just one USB-C slot. One minor nit pick is that the length of USB-C cable in this hub is short and is not sufficient to seat the hub comfortably on a table, when using laptop stands. Would definitely recommend it.
Due to having a cover on my MacBook, I had to use this solution to get more ports for my MacBook Air M1. All works as expected
Schlankes und wertiges Design. Kompatibel mit dem MacBook Pro 2020 13 zoll mit M1 chip. Bin sehr zufrieden.
Da ich seit einigen Wochen mein Galaxy Tab habe, brauche ich dieses Teil, da er nur eine Buchse hat. Ein Stick, Kopfhrer, etc. hat aber vielerlei Dingse 😉
Lange Rede kurzer Sinn, dieses Teil zu bestellen, war die beste Entscheidung!
Absolute Kaufempfehlung!
I was unlucky and purchased a defective unit which had to be returned. However, the process of getting a replacement couldn’t have been easier and the customer service was absolutely brilliant. Sylvia from the Anker support team was so helpful and prompt in her communications and reassured me that the issue would be resolved asap. I had a new, fully operational unit within a few days of communicating the problem – and it’s a good product. So straightforward in a world where these issues can often be time consuming and lengthy. Thank you!
Der Adapter macht was er soll, und wie es in der Artikelbeschreibung beschrieben stand. Fr den mobilen Einsatz meines Erachtens nur bedingt geeignet, aber dafr haben wir ihn ja auch nicht gekauft.
Small But With alot of ports. Only down side of this is the usb c plug is quite short.
Ist gut verarbeitet und funktioniert. Habe einige in der Preisklasse ausprobiert bis ich diese gefunden habe die auch hlt was sie verspricht…
Aein absolutes musthave! Gut aufgeteilte Slots! sehr schnes Design ! Anker eben ! 😉
Premium feel, light weight, Made up of good plastic. Cable should have been bit longer. No heating issue. Happy with the purchase, order to delivery took almost a month!!
Quality hub for MacBook. Plenty of ports and good quality item.
Really compact and perfect for hot desking or remote working.
Having had massive problems with packet storms caused by other makes while the host sleeps, I turned to Anker – a brand I have always found to provide excellent products at the right price point. This hub, while not as neat-looking as some competitors, performs perfectly. It has the right balance of features and size, and is at a keen price point. I have no hesitation in recommending it.
The AH has 2 Female USB-C Ports + 1 Male USB-C Plug on a Short Lead.
1. Plug the Short Lead into the PD USB-C Port, nearest to Left Hinge Corner, of the MacBook Pro M1.
2. Plug the Power Supply USB-C Plug into the AH PD USB-C Port.
3. This leaves 1 vacant USB-C Port on the MacBook and 1 vacant USB-C Port on the AH.
4. A Large Screen can be attached by either HDMI or DisplayPort.
5. Cards can be read by the dual slot Card Reader.
In my case the vacant 2 vacant USB-C Ports are used for connecting 2 Crucial X8 2TB SSDs, one for Time Machine and the other for DATA BackUp.
The 3 USB ports are usually connected to:- DVD Drive; Unifying Receiver-Logitech MX Ergo wireless Trackball; PowerBreathe/Lung Exerciser.
Apart from one minor glitch everything, mentioned above, functions as expected without conflicts.
My first attempt at expanding the MacBook Pro M1 Ports resulted in:
A. Conflict between Logitech Trackball and the Crucial SSDs, the Cursor used to become jerky and ultimately freeze when the SSDs were connected via USB.
B. MacBook M1 Screen Brightness Controls disappeared from System Preferences > Display > Display Tab and Control Centre. In the latter the Control Slider Handle disappeared, with the AH only the Control Centre problem remains.
I am very pleased to have found this Port Expansion GEM, and do not hesitate to recommend it.
I don’t consider myself a heavy user of the device but I own a lot of Anker products and have never had any problems. This is a necessity for my M1 MBP since there are only 2 Thunderbolt ports on the laptop. I like the number of ports on this compact hub and I use it as a docking station for WFH. It does get pretty warm, but I don’t think there is too much of an issue (there is no damage on my plastic-coated desk). It also comes in nice recyclable packaging and a travel pouch that I will probably misplace one day.
been using the 11in1, very stable and solid. Using it in a 2-screen set up.
What I didn’t like is that there is too much plastics in the packaging.
Update 21.04.2021: Das Verlngerungskabel hat Strungen im WLAN-Empfang des angeschlossenen Laptops erzeugt. Nach Entfernen des Verlngerungskabels funktionieren der USB-C-Hub und der WLAN-Empfang wieder einwandfrei. Ursache war das Kabel, nicht der Hub.
Wie gesagt perfekt fr mein Setting, zu Hause ein USB-C in den Macbook und alles ist angeschlossen und funktioniert.
Gute Verarbeitung, auch das Kabel scheint sehr robust zu sein, was es vielleicht ein wenig starr macht. Alle wichtigen Anschlsse sind dran, wobei ich seit Jahren einen Multiport von Satechi habe und der auch gut funktioniert, sind beim Anker Adapter noch weitere Funktionen dran… alles unterwegs dabei.
