| New USB-C Multi-Port Hub Provides the Power of a Desktop Docking Station in a Portable Size | ||||||
 SMK-Link Electronics, a subsidiary of SMK Electronics Corporation U.S.A., has introduced the USB-C Multi-Port Hub (Model VP6920). Designed for laptop computers using a USB-C port interface, the ultra-portable USB-C Multi-Port Hub enables multiple connectivity options, including a USB-C charging port, an HDMI HD/4K video port, a Gigabit Ethernet Port, three high-speed USB 3.0 Ports, and SD & Micro SD Memory Card Readers.“Utilizing a single USB-C port, our new USB-C Multi-Port Hub enables all of the computer connectivity you’ll ever need: providing the options of a desktop docking station in a portable size,” said John Blair, General Manager of Branded Products for SMK-Link Electronics. “Replacing a handful of adapters, the Multi-Port Hub does not require power to supply HDMI, network adapter, SD Card Reader and USB 3.0 connections. Plugged in, however, it also provides power to external USB drives while charging your laptop. “The Multi-Port Hub is perhaps the easiest docking station you will ever own; but more important is the broad range of applications it enables,” continued Mr. Blair. “Connect your USB-C enabled laptop directly to local area networks, view HD and UHD (4K) video via HDMI on external TVs and displays, connect via high speed USB 3.0 ports to printers and solid state drives, capture photographs from SD and Micro SD memory cards and more. And when it’s time to travel, simply slip the portable Multi-Port Hub into your laptop bag, and take this universe of connectivity with you.” The new USB-C Multi-Port Hub provides the power of a desktop docking station in a portable size (SMK-Link Model VP6920).
