Manufacturer description

The atolla 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub turns a single USB 3.0 port on your laptop or desktop into seven USB-A connections, so a keyboard, mouse, flash drives, headphones, speakers and other peripherals can stay plugged in at once. Every port runs at USB 3.0 SuperSpeed rates of up to 5Gbps, which means large file transfers and drive syncs finish in seconds rather than minutes. What separates this atolla hub from basic splitters is per-port control: each of the seven ports has its own ON/OFF switch and LED indicator, so you can cut power to an idle drive or see working status at a glance without…

SpecPicks Verdict

SpecPicks scored atolla 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub Splitter using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the external storage category. atolla's external storage lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many devices can I plug into this atolla hub at once?

Seven. The hub expands one USB 3.0 port into seven USB-A ports for keyboards, mice, flash drives, headphones, speakers and similar peripherals, and each port has its own switch so you can keep devices connected but powered off.

How fast is data transfer on this USB hub?

Each port supports USB 3.0 SuperSpeed rates of up to 5Gbps, so large files and drive syncs complete quickly. Real-world speed depends on your host port and the device attached, and all seven ports share the single upstream connection.

Does it need external power or drivers?

No drivers are needed, it is plug and play. Power is optional: the type-C port accepts a 5V 2A supply for high-consumption devices such as external hard drives. Check the product listing to confirm whether an adapter is included.

Will this work with a Mac or a Linux machine?

Yes. atolla lists compatibility with Windows, Mac OS, Linux and other operating systems. Because it is a USB-A hub, Macs with only USB-C ports will need a USB-C to USB-A adapter to connect it.

What do the individual switches and LEDs actually do?

Each of the seven ports has its own ON/OFF switch that cuts power to just that port, so you can idle a drive or accessory without unplugging it, and a matching LED indicator shows which ports are currently active.

  • Massive Expansion: This atolla 7-port USB 3.0 hub easily connects one USB 3.0 port to more USB-A devices, such as keyboard&mouse, flash drives, headphone, speakers and many other peripherals at the same time.

  • High Stable Connection: The type-c port allows you to connect an extra power supply with 5V 2A current for more high-consumption devices and prevent disturbance from the unstable Wifi connection.
