Description
Transform a single USB 3.0 port from a notebook, tablet, or desktop into seven USB 3.0 ports—with two performing double duty as charging ports—with the Powered USB 3.0 Slim Aluminum Hub from Xcellon. Each of the seven ports is outfitted with USB 3.0 technology that enables it to transfer data at rates of up to 5 Gb/s. When used as a stand-alone hub, the two charging ports can each deliver up to 2.4A of current for recharging tablets, smartphones, and other power-hungry devices. Furthermore, the hub is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 interfaces and supports a wide-variety of systems, including Windows, Mac, Chrome, and Linux.
When compared to the previous version, this Xcellon hub features a slimmer design as well as a redesigned power system, which provides a toggle switch and the ability to automatically turn on when the host computer is powered on or restarted. Moreover, the slim design and rubber treads allow the hub to stay upright while unplugging and plugging in USB cables.
Xcellon has constructed this 7-port hub of heat-dissipating aluminum and includes a dual-voltage power adapter for ensuring ample power flows to your USB-connected devices, while reducing the strain on the host system’s components. Aside from power, LED indicators are located next to each port, so you can see the power status of each individual USB port. There’s also an included 3.3′ (1m) USB 3.0 Type-A cable and an included 3.3′ (1m) USB 3.0 Type-C cable that lets you start using this hub right away.

Professional quality, sturdy, and well built USB hub. These are built to last, as I have another one that I have had for five years with no issues. Highly recommended.

When my Blue Yeti Nano mic would only work directly attached to my computer, not to either name brand powered USB-3 hub, I started looking. This hub appeared and reviewed as the real deal. I didn’t recognize the brand, enough reason for justifiable fear on Amazon, but B&H knows their stuff, so I bought two. The metal case is miniaturized quality on par with enthusiast stereo equipment. I like the on/off switch though I’ll never use it. The included cables for both USB-3 and USB-C computer ports are high quality and a nice touch. Many USB-3 hubs include high-powered ports that don’t support data. These Xcellon high-powered ports do support data. I was ready to return my Blue Yeti Nano mic, but I took it back out of its box for a test, and it worked flawlessly from an Xcellon high-powered data port. I fell in love with the mic, too, so I’m keeping everything. One should really look at B&H before/instead of Amazon. And Xcellon is a name brand now, just new on the block. They’ve really thought this hub through; it’s worth every penny.

This USB hub has done just what I hoped: sit there, ignored, functioning as if all of its ports were originally built into my iMac. It looks nice, feels well built and the metal case has enough weight to stay where you put it with stuff plugged into it. The power supply appears to be of decent quality and doesn’t create any audio interference in my setup. I looked for things to complain about before writing this review, but I have no complaints. I’d buy this again!

I use all the connections with my Apple MACbook Pro. I do a lot of video and audio editing and use external SSDs, speed works well in edits as if the files were native to the internal drive.
