Baseus Metal Shimmer 6-in-1 Type-C Hub with 4K HD and Gigabit Ethernet
For users with modern laptops or tablets that rely on a single Type-C port, the Baseus Metal Shimmer Typec Hub offers a practical solution. It expands connectivity to include video output, data transfer, and network access without needing multiple adapters. The six-in-one variant provides a balanced mix of ports for everyday professional use, while other configurations are available for specific needs. Built with a metal-finish casing, this hub integrates smoothly into work or home setups.
Features and Port Configuration
The Baseus Metal Shimmer hub comes in multiple versions with different port combinations. Each model is powered directly through the Type-C connection, so no extra power supply is required.
Port Options
The six-in-one model includes Type-C to PD pass-through charging, a 4K HD video output, three USB 3.0 ports for high-speed data, and a Gigabit Ethernet port. Four-in-one, five-in-one, and eight-in-one versions offer varying numbers of ports, with the eight-in-one adding an SD and TF card slot alongside Ethernet.
Video and Data Performance
With 4K HD support, this hub can drive an external monitor at high resolution, suitable for presentations or extended desktop work. The USB 3.0 ports achieve faster file transfers compared to older standards, and the Gigabit Ethernet connection provides a stable wired network alternative to Wi-Fi.
Uses and Practical Applications
This docking station is designed to address common connectivity limitations in thin laptops and tablets. It works well in both office and home environments.
Professional or Office Use
Connect a 4K monitor, keyboard, mouse, and Ethernet cable through the hub for a complete workstation. The PD pass-through keeps the laptop charged during long work sessions without occupying the single Type-C port exclusively.
