UGREEN UG-45380 10-in-1 USB-C to 2 HDMI(4K@60Hz) + 2 USB-C 3.2 + USB-A3.2 + USB-A3.0 + Gigabit RJ45 + SD/TF + PD(100W)
The Ugreen UG-45380 delivers comprehensive workstation connectivity through advanced port multiplexing technology. This aluminum-constructed hub transforms single USB-C ports into ten independent interfaces supporting dual 4K displays, high-speed data transfer, and full laptop charging. The adapter employs plug-and-play architecture requiring no additional driver installation across major operating systems.
Dual 4K@60Hz HDMI Display Architecture
Two HDMI 2.0 ports enable simultaneous 4K output at 60Hz refresh rates for both connected displays. The UG-45380 supports extended desktop configurations on Windows systems, allowing independent content across each monitor at 3840 x 2160 resolution. HDR (High Dynamic Range) compatibility enhances color depth and contrast ratio for professional visual work.
macOS systems operate in mirror mode due to platform limitations, displaying identical content across both external monitors. Each HDMI port delivers full HDMI 2.0 bandwidth specifications supporting 18Gbps data throughput. Consequently, users can connect dual monitors for multitasking workflows without resolution or refresh rate compromises. The adapter maintains stable 60Hz output even during intensive graphics operations.
USB 3.2 Gen 2 High-Speed Data Ports
The UG-45380 integrates three USB 3.2 Gen 2 interfaces operating at 10Gbps theoretical bandwidth. Two USB-C ports alongside one USB-A port provide flexible peripheral connectivity for modern and legacy devices. These Gen 2 ports transfer 20GB files in approximately 20 seconds when connected to compatible SSDs.
Additionally, one USB-A 3.0 port operates at 5Gbps for moderate-speed peripherals like wireless adapters or external hard drives. This mixed-speed configuration optimizes bandwidth allocation across connected devices. The 10Gbps USB-C ports support bidirectional data flow for external storage, capture devices, and high-resolution webcams simultaneously.
Power Delivery 3.0 Charging System
USB-C Power Delivery 3.0 protocol supports up to 100W pass-through charging for connected laptops. The dedicated PD port maintains device power during intensive multi-peripheral operation. MacBook Pro 16-inch models receive full 96W charging capacity while utilizing all hub functions concurrently.
Furthermore, the PD port exclusively handles charging without data transmission or video output functionality. This dedicated architecture prevents power delivery interruptions during high-bandwidth data transfers. Dell XPS 15, HP Spectre, and Surface Pro devices achieve optimal charging performance through the 100W specification.
Gigabit Ethernet Wired Connectivity
The integrated RJ45 port delivers 1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet connectivity with backward compatibility to 100Mbps and 10Mbps standards. Wired network connections eliminate wireless interference and latency variability common in congested WiFi environments. Video conferencing, remote desktop sessions, and large file uploads benefit from consistent network performance.
Moreover, the Ethernet port operates independently from USB data bandwidth allocation. Network traffic maintains full Gigabit speeds even when USB ports reach maximum transfer capacity. The UG-45380 employs dedicated Ethernet chipset architecture ensuring stable connectivity during simultaneous multi-port operation.
SD and TF Card Reader Integration
Dual card slots support SD and microSD (TF) formats with UHS-I specification compatibility. Both card readers operate simultaneously at 104MB/s maximum transfer rates. Photographers transfer high-resolution images directly from camera media without external card readers.
Additionally, the card slots recognize SDXC, SDHC, microSDXC, and microSDHC formats up to 2TB capacity. Transfer speeds reach practical rates around 90-104MB/s depending on card specifications and file types. The simultaneous dual-slot operation enables rapid backup workflows between multiple memory cards.
Aluminum Alloy Construction and Thermal Design
Premium aluminum alloy housing provides structural rigidity while facilitating passive heat dissipation. The metal construction transfers heat away from internal chipsets during extended multi-port operation. Surface temperatures reach approximately 115°F (46°C) under full load conditions, which represents normal thermal performance for USB-C hubs.
Additionally, the compact form factor enables portable workstation setups for remote professionals and content creators. The lightweight aluminum design withstands daily transport while maintaining professional aesthetics. The UG-45380 requires no external power adapter as it draws power from the host device’s USB-C port and connected PD charger.
Cross-Platform Plug-and-Play Compatibility
The adapter supports Windows, macOS, Linux, ChromeOS, and iPadOS platforms without driver installation requirements. USB-C ports with DisplayPort Alt Mode and Power Delivery enable full functionality. Thunderbolt 3 and Thunderbolt 4 ports provide complete compatibility with all adapter features.
Furthermore, the UG-45380 operates with USB-C enabled laptops including MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, Dell XPS, HP Spectre x360, Surface Pro, ASUS Zenbook, and ThinkPad X1 Carbon models. iPad Pro users access video output and peripheral connectivity when iPadOS supports external display functionality. The plug-and-play architecture eliminates software configuration requirements.
