USB Power Delivery 2.0
USB Power Delivery 2.0 is a specification that allows power (up to
100 watts) to be sent over a USB-C or Thunderbolt™ 3 cable that
supports the specification.
The HB30C1A1CPD supports USB Power Delivery 2.0 and will deliver
up to 60 watts of power through the USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port on
your laptop.
About USB-C
The USB-C port on the hub supports USB Power Delivery 2.0 and can
also be used for data throughput.
Thunderbolt 3 also uses the USB-C connector, so you can connect
the adapter to a Thunderbolt 3 port. When you connect the adapter
to a Thunderbolt 3 port, you can achieve USB speeds of 5Gbps.
Connect the hub

laptop.
2. Connect a USB peripheral (for example, a flash drive) to the USB-A
port on the hub.
3. Do one of the following:
• To use power delivery, connect a USB-C power adapter to the
USB-C port on the hub.
• Connect a USB peripheral to the USB-C port on the hub.
The HB30C1A1CPD is natively supported and when you connect it to
your laptop, your laptop automatically detects the hub and installs
the required drivers.
