Belkin's newest product is the Connect USB-C Hub with recycled materials with four high-speed USB-C ports that provide charging and prevent data loss.
In January, Belkin pledged to reduce its environmental impact with new products, and it delivers that with the Connect USB-C Hub. The accessory manufacturer works on scope three emissions and aims to be carbon neutral for scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2025.
The new hub is made with 72% post-consumer recycled plastics (PCR), which refers to manufactured goods that are used and recycled. Belkin aims to produce other consumer products using PCR plastics and plastic-free packaging.
It has four USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports that offer up to 10Gbps of data transfer speeds. Users can connect any audio interface to the device, which includes USB-C headphones and speakers.
They support USB Power Delivery to provide pass-through charging of up to 100W. A Fast Role Swap (FRS) feature eliminates data loss and disruption of device connections when adding or removing a USB power source from the hub.
Belkin Connect USB-C Hub - Pricing & availability
The Connect hub is available to purchase from Belkin for $44.99 or through Amazon for $52.25.

Why is it more expensive on Amazon than directly from Belkin?! Because many of their so-called "Prime free shipping" products actually have the shipping price built-in. Another more outrageous and illegal scam from Amazon is their policy (which is not in their terms of service) for returns over $300. is refunds take 30 days to process rather than their 3-5 day refund policy on less expensive returns. I'd imagine Amazon makes millions, if not billions as a result of this deceit.
