The Genius UH-500 is a compact 5-in-1 USB-C hub for laptop users who need to connect a display, charge their computer and attach USB peripherals through a single USB-C connection. It also suits tablet users looking to add ports for work or entertainment.

Its HDMI output supports 4K video at 60Hz for a monitor or TV, while USB-C Power Delivery accepts up to 100W input for charging. Three USB 3.0 data ports, comprising one USB-C and two USB-A, provide transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps. A 15 cm cable keeps the hub close to the host device, and plug-and-play operation means no installation is required.

Compatibility

Connect the hub to a device with a USB-C port. Its operating system support includes Windows 8/10/11 or later, macOS 13.5 or later, Android and Apple iOS. For charging, connect a USB-C PD power source to the hub’s PD port; the 100W figure is the supported input power.
