StarTech HB30C4AFPD — USB‑C to 4‑Port USB‑A Hub with 60W Power Delivery Passthrough
Modern USB-C laptops ship without USB-A ports, but the accessories world hasn't caught up yet. The HB30C4AFPD bridges that gap with four USB 3.0 ports and 60W charging passthrough — one cable in, four ports out, laptop stays powered.
