Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub Docking Station Adapter is now available at Mascom International for KSh 1,200 at our Old Mutual Building store, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. The Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub turns a single USB-C port into four USB-A sockets: one USB-A 3.0 port rated by Green Lion at up to 400 Mbps, plus three USB-A 2.0 ports rated at up to 350 Mbps each. The housing combines aluminum alloy and TPE, and a short 6.7cm captive cable connects it to your machine. Model code GN4N11HUSBCBK, finished in black.
Built for accountants filing KRA returns from Upper Hill offices, university students at the University of Nairobi, Strathmore, and JKUAT, cyber café operators around Moi Avenue, and field staff carrying a slim laptop to client sites, the Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub solves a problem that thin laptops created. Modern machines like the MacBook Air, Dell XPS 13, HP OmniBook, and Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon ship with two or three USB-C ports and nothing else. Your wired mouse, keyboard, flash drive, and printer cable all still use USB-A. The Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub reconnects that older hardware without asking you to replace it.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya selling unmarked hubs with no model code and no printed rating, the Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub carries a published SKU, a stated port configuration, and a metal shell rather than hollow plastic. Buyers throughout Kenya tell us the failure they fear most is a hub that drops the mouse mid-presentation. At KSh 1,200, the Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub costs less than a single replacement keyboard. Visit Mascom International on Kimathi Street to test the hub against your own laptop, or order for countrywide pay-on-arrival delivery.
Common Questions About the Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub
What can I plug into the Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub at the same time?
All four ports work simultaneously. A typical Nairobi desk setup runs a wired mouse and keyboard on two of the USB-A 2.0 ports, a flash drive or printer cable on the third, and a portable SSD or fast flash drive on the single USB-A 3.0 port where the extra speed actually matters. The hub also handles USB dongles for wireless mice, webcams, headsets, card readers, DAB radios, and Bluetooth adapters. Put your slowest accessories on the 2.0 ports and save the 3.0 port for storage.
Does the Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub work with a MacBook, Windows laptop, or Android phone?
Yes to all three, provided the port carries data rather than charging alone. The Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub works with MacBook Air and MacBook Pro from 2016 onward, Windows laptops with USB-C data ports including HP EliteBook, Dell Latitude, Lenovo ThinkPad, and ASUS Zenbook, plus iPad Pro and iPad Air. Android phones and tablets need USB OTG support, which most Samsung Galaxy, Tecno, Infinix, and Xiaomi models sold in Kenya include. Test it in store if you are unsure about your specific device.
How fast does the Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub actually transfer files?
Green Lion rates the USB-A 3.0 port at up to 400 Mbps, which works out to roughly 50 megabytes per second in real terms. A 4GB movie file moves in about 80 seconds, and a 500MB folder of photographs takes about 10 seconds. The three USB-A 2.0 ports are rated at up to 350 Mbps, close enough for mice, keyboards, and document transfers, but slow for large video files.
Does the Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub add HDMI or charge my laptop?
No, and this is worth knowing before you buy. The Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub is a four-port USB-A expander only. It carries no HDMI output, no VGA, no SD card slot, no Ethernet, and no Power Delivery pass-through, so it will not run a second monitor or charge your laptop while connected. If you need display output or charging, Mascom International stocks Green Lion 8-in-1 and 12-in-1 hubs with 4K HDMI and 100W PD. This model is built for peripherals, priced accordingly at KSh 1,200.
Do I need to install drivers or software to use it?
No drivers, no software, no setup account. The Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub is plug and play: connect the USB-C end to your laptop and the operating system recognises the four ports within a second or two. It works out of the box on Windows 10, Windows 11, macOS, ChromeOS, Linux distributions including Ubuntu, and Android with OTG. Hot-swapping is supported, meaning you can pull out a flash drive and push in a mouse without restarting anything. Nothing needs to be configured.
Will the Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub run an external hard drive or printer?
Printers, scanners, and flash drives run without complaint. USB-powered accessories draw their electricity from your laptop through the hub, and the hub has no separate power input, so total draw across all four ports is capped by what your laptop's USB-C port supplies. A 2.5-inch portable hard drive usually spins up on the USB-A 3.0 port on its own, but connecting two mechanical drives at once can cause one to disconnect. Desktop drives with their own wall adapters work fine.
Is the Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub worth KSh 1,200 in Kenya's market?
At KSh 1,200 the Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub sits at the bottom of the branded hub bracket, below UGREEN and Anker four-port models that typically run KSh 2,000 to KSh 3,500 in Nairobi. What you give up compared to those is raw throughput on the 3.0 port. What you get for the money is an aluminum alloy body, a published model code, and a 6-month Mascom International warranty. For mouse, keyboard, dongle, and flash drive duty, the extra KSh 1,500 buys you nothing measurable.
Why choose the Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub over an unbranded hub from a street stall?
An unbranded hub costs around KSh 500 in Nairobi CBD and carries no model number, no stated transfer rating, and no warranty. When it fails after three weeks, nobody takes it back. The Green Lion 4-In-1 USB-C Hub carries SKU GN4N11HUSBCBK, published port specifications, and an aluminum alloy shell that pulls heat away from the controller chip instead of trapping it. Mascom International backs it with a 6-month warranty handled at our Kimathi Street service desk, not a phone number that stops answering.
Technical Specifications
Port Layout and Transfer Rates
- One USB-A 3.0 port rated up to 400 Mbps by Green Lion, the socket to use for flash drives and portable SSDs
- Three USB-A 2.0 ports rated up to 350 Mbps each, sufficient for mice, keyboards, dongles, printers, and scanners
- All four ports operate at once, so a mouse, keyboard, flash drive, and printer cable can stay connected together
- USB-C upstream connector on model GN4N11HUSBCBK; a USB-A upstream version exists under SKU GN4N10HUSBABK
- Hot-swap support lets you connect and disconnect accessories without restarting the laptop or unplugging the hub
- No HDMI, VGA, Ethernet, SD card reader, or Power Delivery pass-through on this model — it expands USB-A only
- Data-only design keeps the price at KSh 1,200 rather than the KSh 4,000 to KSh 8,000 multi-display hubs command
Device Compatibility and Driver-Free Setup
- Plug and play across Windows 10, Windows 11, macOS, ChromeOS, and Linux with no driver download or installation step
- Works with USB-C laptops including MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, HP EliteBook, Dell Latitude, Lenovo ThinkPad, and ASUS Zenbook
- iPad Pro and iPad Air with USB-C accept the hub for keyboards, card readers, and flash drive file access
- Android phones and tablets need USB OTG support, present on most Samsung Galaxy, Tecno, Infinix, and Xiaomi models here
- The host USB-C port must carry data, not charging alone — some budget laptops fit charge-only USB-C sockets
- Supports keyboards, mice, wireless dongles, webcams, headsets, printers, scanners, flash drives, and card readers
Build Materials and Daily Durability
- Aluminum alloy housing pulls heat away from the internal controller during long transfer sessions instead of holding it in
- TPE cable jacket flexes without cracking, standing up to daily coiling into a laptop sleeve or backpack pocket
- Metal shell resists the crush of a packed bag better than the hollow plastic used on unbranded market hubs
- Black finish hides fingerprints and the fine dust common on Nairobi desks during the dry January and February months
- Low profile means the hub sits flat on a desk rather than dangling and pulling sideways on your laptop's USB-C port
- Sealed body with no removable panels keeps dust away from the four port contacts during upcountry travel
Cable Design and Desk Placement
- Captive 6.7cm cable is fixed to the hub, so there is no separate lead to lose, forget, or mismatch
- Short length keeps the hub tucked beside the laptop instead of trailing loose cable across a shared desk
- Fixed cable removes the loose-connector failure point where detachable hubs usually die after a few months
- The 6.7cm reach means the hub sits on the desk surface, not on the floor where it collects dust and gets kicked
- Cable flexibility allows the hub to sit on either side of the laptop without straining the USB-C connector housing
- Weight and length suit hot-desking, coworking spaces around Westlands and Kilimani, and shared cyber café stations
Power Draw and Practical Limits
- Bus-powered design draws electricity from the laptop's USB-C port; there is no separate wall adapter input
- Total current across all four ports is limited by what your host port supplies, typically 5V at 0.9A on most laptops
- Mice, keyboards, dongles, flash drives, printers, and scanners all sit comfortably inside that budget
- A single 2.5-inch portable hard drive usually spins up on the USB-A 3.0 port, though two at once may drop one
- Desktop hard drives and printers with their own wall power supplies connect without any draw concern at all
- Running the hub from a laptop on battery will shorten runtime slightly, as the connected accessories draw from it
- For heavy multi-drive work, Mascom International stocks externally powered hubs and larger Green Lion docking models
Package Contents
