Operation
Notes:
• This product is recommended for use with Apple
MacBook Pro 61W/87W PD chargers.
• Current is equally distributed among all ports. In
instances where the full 45W is required from the
USB-C PD 3.0 port, the current will be renegotiated
to accommodate the USB-C PD 3.0 port first.
1. Remove the existing USB-C cable on your
Apple USB-C PD charger.
2. Connect the U280-A04-A3C1 hub to the
Type-C port PD charger as shown in the
figure below. Then, reconnect the USB-C
cable to the hub’s USB-C PD port.
