As the world progresses, many people have moved on from slower USB-A ports to faster and more versatile USB-C hubs. EZQuest, the company, known for developing the highest-quality accessories for the PC and mobile consumer electronics markets, introduces its latest EZQuest USB-C Gen 2 Hub Adapter with 7 Ports at the CES 2022.

There are a lot of factors consumers should consider when picking the best USB-C hub, the majority of which are more practical than technical. For instance, when one wants to get the best value for their money, they should be willing to pay a little for something like added features.

It is also important for consumers to avoid choosing a hub that directly attaches to the port instead of using a cord since it can block other ports. Additionally, the length of the cord should be a factor since longer cords allow easier hub placement.

Another factor one must take into account while selecting the USB-C hub is its ability to read and speed transfer data. The hub's functionality and utility are also crucial qualities one should check out to get more value for their money.

Speed, utility and functionality

The EZQuest USB-C features seven powerful ports. Three of these are second-generation USB-C 10 Gbs ports, another three are USB 3.0 5 Gbs ports and a port called USB-C Power Delivery 3.0 with Fast Role Swap technology that facilitates 5 Gbs data and pass-thru charging for up to 100 Watts.

The EZQuest USB-C Gen 2 Hub Adapter with 7 Ports features Power Delivery 3.0 and Fast Role Swap to ensure the fastest and safest charging. However, for the hub to be able to deliver full-speed charging, users must make sure the power adapter is at least 45W or 15V since adapters less than 45W will not supply adequate power to offer pass-thru charging.

Any of the four USB-C second-generation ports or the three USB 3.0 can be used to connect devices like external hard drives, cameras and flash drives, to name a few. These can also be utilized for charging and syncing mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones.

Compatibility and smart features

The EZQuest USB-C Gen 2 Hub Adapter with 7 Ports is compatible with a long list of devices. It works for all Apple products with USB-C ports, as well as with other computers that feature the same port. It is also compatible with mobile devices' On-The-Go support.

The EZQuest USB-C Gen 2 Hub Adapter with 7 Ports has an extended 9-inch nylon braided cable. This allows the hub to lay flat on the surface being connected to devices such as MacBook, PC, iMac, tablet, iPad Pro and smartphones, among others.

The use of nylon braided cable instead of the regular or standard cable found in traditional hubs is a smart choice for EZQuest. The material is structurally more stable than plastic.

Nylon braiding is where strands of nylon are intertwined to create additional, stronger strands or cables. Nylon when used in this creation process is structurally more stable than alternative plastic counterparts, less susceptible to fray and less likely to become tangled.

The EZQuest USB-C Gen 2 Hub Adapter with 7 ports retails for $69.99. It is available on the company's official website and other popular physical and online stores.
