SPIDER Automation Raspberry Pi USB 3.0 4-Port Hub | SuperSpeed Expansion
Description
SPIDER Automation Raspberry Pi USB 3.0 4-Port Hub is an essential desktop addition designed to maximize connectivity options for your single-board computer setup. By converting a single upstream USB Type-A port into four downstream USB 3.0 ports, this hub allows you to connect multiple keyboards, mice, flash drives, and controllers simultaneously without port crowding.
Engineered for versatility, it operates unpowered for low-draw accessories or accepts an optional external USB-C power input (5V @ 3A) to support high-power downstream peripherals such as external solid-state drives (SSDs) and hard disk drives (HDDs). Built to strict standards, it guarantees high-speed 5 Gbps data transmission and absolute reliability for your workspace.
