Review: Another USB-C Hub from Mokin - 14-in-1
https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2024/01/review-another-usb-c-hub-from-mokin-14-in-1/

The lovely people at Mokin keep sending me their USB-C hubs to review, and I'm happy to do so. They work splendidly with my Linux and Windows machines, and they provide more ports than I ever thought necessary.

A little metal hub with lots of cables going in to it.

This one is positively festooned with extra ports. Let's take a look.

USB-C

Plug your power adapter into the hub, and then the hub into your laptop. With most hubs, that's it; you've lost a C port. This has an extra USB-C port - so you don't lose anything. Personally, I'd prefer more USB-C ports.

Instead, you get 3x USB-A 3.0 ports, and 2x USB-A 2.0 ports. That's a lot of room for peripherals. They're all well spaced out, so you should be able to cram everything in.

Storage

All these sorts of hubs tend to have an SD slot and a microSD slot. Read and write speeds hit the limit of the cards I had - but you may be better off using the USB 3 ports if you really need speed. Speaking of which...

Speed

Obviously, if you have a hundred gadgets plugged in - and only one USB-C cable - there's a limit to the total throughput. That said, the Ethernet port topped out my 650Mbps broadband - and I don't have anything much faster than that!

Video

There are two HDMI ports and a legacy VGA port. I'll be honest, I can't remember the last time I needed to plug my laptop into an analogue video cable. But I guess if you go to lots of crappy conference venues it might be useful?

My old laptop was able to drive two monitors at the same time, which was pretty useful. You're limited to one at 4k@60Hz - if you're using two HDMI, you'll only get 30Hz. But if you're happy with 1080p, you'll get 60Hz on both.

Apparently MacOS doesn't support triple display.

Power

USB's Power Delivery mode is a still a bit confusing. I used a 100W Dell charger and, USB-C PD tester saw that about 80% of the power was making it to the laptop.

With the power unplugged, the hub drew electricity from the laptop in order to charge all the gadgets.

Sound

Weirdly, the analogue sound out didn't show up for me in Linux. I'm not heartbroken by that - either my laptop has a speaker out or the HDMI device does. But it is a bit weird that it didn't show.

Linux info

As with all modern devices, it is plug-and-play. All my gadgets worked fine with it. This is what Linux sees:

ID 0bda:8153 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8153 Gigabit Ethernet AdapterID 2109:0817 VIA Labs, Inc. USB3.0 Hub             ID 2109:0817 VIA Labs, Inc. USB3.0 Hub ID 1a40:0801 Terminus Technology Inc. USB 2.0 Hub2109:8817 VIA Labs, Inc. USB Billboard Device   ID 2109:2817 VIA Labs, Inc. USB2.0 Hub             ID 2109:2817 VIA Labs, Inc. USB2.0 Hub  

Verdict

There's a lot packed into a fairly small box. Depending on which way the wind is blowing, you'll pay about £60 on Amazon for it.

Small box with too many USB cables coming from it.

It's a neat little halfway house between a small adapter with a couple of ports and a massive docking station. But if you don't need all those ports, there's probably something cheaper.

I guess this is aimed at people plugging in to all sorts of weird screens on their travels. I think a DisplayPort would have been a better choice than double HDMI.

So a bit of a mixed bag. If you need these options, it is close to perfect. But it may be excessive for some.

Gadget Review: Mokin USB-C to USB-C & USB-C & USB-C & USB-C & USB-C
https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2024/01/gadget-review-mokin-usb-c-to-usb-c-usb-c-usb-c-usb-c-usb-c/

You can never have too many USB-C ports, right? It's rubbish having a cheap laptop with only a single USB-C port. So, the good folks at Mokin have sent me a gadget which turns your single and lonely USB-C port into FIVE USB-C ports.

A multi-port adapter.

Along the side you get 4 USB-C 3.1 ports which are theoretically capable of 10Gbps in aggregate.

At the bottom is a USB-C 3.0 Power Delivery port which can take up to 100W of power.

There's also an obligatory blue LED to let you know it is working.

A slim USB-C hub with lots of cables plugged in.

Speed

As will all modern hubs, there's nothing to install. Plug it in and it starts working. Copying a large file from a USB 2.0 phone got a respectable 90mbps.

When plugged into ethernet, it got up to 660Mbps - which is about as fast as my broadband goes.

And I don't think I have any faster devices than that to check!

Power

I used my USB-C PD tester. I plugged in a 100W capable charger into the hub's PD socket, and the output into my laptop. The hub passed through about 80% of the power I got when I was plugged in normally. So there is a bit of a hit in the power delivery.

That said, it happily charged the laptop and all the devices attached to it. Even without power attached, the hub drew power from the laptop and charged the gadgets.

It doesn't support "Fast Role Swap". So if you disconnect the power from the hub, your devices will briefly disconnect and reconnect again. Usually not a problem unless you're in the middle of a file transfer.

Downsides

The major issue is that there's no monitor output.

This is a USB 3.1 hub. As I've mentioned before, in order to do video over USB, you need 3.2 capable hubs and cables.

Feel free to supply your own rant about USB-C versions here.

Linux info

This shows up as 05e3:0610 Genesys Logic, Inc. Hub and is supported by modern Linux kernels. I tried it on Ubuntu and Android and it worked just fine.

Verdict

You can get this for about £20 on Amazon depending on whether the algorithm likes you or not.

For the price, I think it is excellent. I can't find anything so cheap or slim which does support video. Or has as many ports.

If all you need are a bunch of extra C ports, this is perfect. Speeds are good, power transfer is good, and it works on Windows and Linux flawlessly. If you need video, try Mokin's USB-C Docking Station.

je vais vous dire pourquoi c'est vachement plus fun d'être prof d'histoire que prof de maths

en maths dans le secondaire, ton programme il change qu'en fonction des prescriptions sur la didactique

alors qu'en histoire 😎

en histoire on integre régulièrement les découvertes historiques nouvelles dans le programme

I composed INTERSECTIONS during 2021. I derived the music from a few samples taken from the Citizen DJ Project of Brian Foo at The Library of Congress citizen-dj.labs.loc.gov
I chose some voices that were inspiring, and generated some colors, some rhythms, some melodies and some harmonies.
