  • Does a USB-C Hub Affect Performance?

A USB-C hub can affect the performance of your machine and its attached devices.There are a few ways that it might do this:

  1. Battery power could become an issue if you are plugging an unpowered hub into your laptop, you could see the battery drain quicker than usual.
  2. The ports on your laptop are connected to your motherboard, and they have a set bandwidth that they will parse out to attached devices. A hub with multiple ports in it, once plugged into the computer, will have the available bandwidth spread out over each of those ports.
  3. Functionally, there is a limit on how many devices the USB-C port can support.

  • Can I Connect Two USB-C Hubs Together?
