Hyper Debuts New Thunderbolt 4 Hub With Integrated GaN Power Source

Accessory maker Hyper, known for its range of chargers, hubs, and battery packs, recently introduced the HyperDrive Thunderbolt 4 Power Hub (https://hyperdrive-thunderbolt-4-power.kckb.st/b3e8379e), which it says is the world's first Goshen Ridge Thunderbolt 4 hub with an integrated power source.

Available on Kickstarter, the hub includes a built-in GaN power source that alleviates the need for an extra power brick and allows it to operate with a standard power cable, ultimately resulting in a more streamlined setup.



The Thunderbolt 4 Power Hub includes three 40Gbps/15W Thunderbolt 4 downstream ports for data transfer and accessory charging and one 40Gbps/96W power delivery Thunderbolt 4 port, but there are no other included ports. The Thunderbolt 4 ports support dual 4K 60Hz or single 8K 30Hz display connectivity, though dual displays are not compatible with M1 (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/m1/) or M2 (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/m2/) MacBooks.



The hub works with with the 2016 MacBook Pro or later, the 2018 MacBook Air (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/macbook-air/) or later, and the 2021 iPad Pro (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/ipad-pro/) or later, as well as Windows and ChromeOS devices.



The HyperDrive Thunderbolt 4 Power Hub (https://hyperdrive-thunderbolt-4-power.kckb.st/b3e8379e) can be preordered from Kickstarter for $179, a 40 percent discount off of the planned retail price, and it is set to ship out in November 2022.
