THE SHORT ANSWER

Our take

RSH-516C is a powered four-port USB-C-to-USB-A hub with convenient per-port switches. Its exact manufacturer layout conflicts with the frozen seven-port title, so the buyer should verify the model and port face before ordering.

Consider it for

A USB-C computer setup that needs four switchable USB-A data ports and an included hub power adapter, after confirming the selected item is the four-port RSH-516C..

Look elsewhere if

Avoid it if seven downstream ports, video, Ethernet, card readers, or a specified charging output are required.

Pros & cons

What could work for you, and what to consider before buying.

What works in its favor

  • RSHTECH identifies the exact RSH-516C and its four USB-A 3.0 outputs.
  • Individual switches, a two-foot host cable, and a 5V/2A adapter are documented.
  • The maker lists USB 3.0 up to 5Gbps and backward compatibility.

What to weigh up

  • The frozen title says seven ports while the maker's RSH-516C page says four.
  • The adapter rating does not specify per-port current or simultaneous output.
  • The historical ASIN association does not prove a current offer or resolve the title mismatch.

Full review: how the features affect your choice

What the features mean for you

Choose the four-port model for individual control of USB devices

RSH-516C is designed to add four USB-A 3.0 ports from one USB-C host connection. Each output has an individual switch and status indicator, which can be useful when a device should be disconnected or power-cycled without unplugging the whole hub. The manufacturer describes hot-swappable operation and a light that indicates data activity. This can make a small desk setup easier to manage, but the hub adds ordinary USB-A ports; it does not provide HDMI, Ethernet, or card reading.

Use the external supply when powered hub operation is required

The package list includes a 5V/2A power adapter, alongside a two-foot USB-C-to-USB-B host cable. A separate supply can support connected USB peripherals beyond what a bus-powered hub alone can provide, but the inspected page does not give a per-port current budget or promise charging performance. Treat the adapter as the hub's power input, not as proof that a phone or laptop receives a particular charging rate from an output port. Confirm which devices you intend to attach and whether their power needs fit the manufacturer's stated limits.

Keep the 5Gbps figure in context

RSHTECH lists USB 3.0 with a transfer rate up to 5Gbps and backward compatibility with USB 2.0/1.1. That is an interface ceiling, not a measured result for all four ports at once. The official page does not provide simultaneous throughput or a detailed internal bandwidth allocation. This model can fit a setup with several ordinary USB peripherals, but a user moving large files should not assume each attached drive gets a separate 5Gbps channel.

Resolve the seven-port title before ordering

The frozen row title says seven-port USB 3.0, while RSHTECH's exact RSH-516C product page says four downstream USB-A ports. An indexed record associates B098SM9RDH with RSH-516C, and another imported listing describes a four-port product. Other RSHTECH models have different port counts, so do not apply their details here. Inspect the selected listing's model label and port-face photo; if it advertises seven sockets while claiming RSH-516C, ask the seller to reconcile the mismatch.

Use a model search rather than assuming an active ASIN

The exact maker model and port map are verified, but the current Amazon offer and current B098SM9RDH page were not readable. The tagged search uses RSH-516C and the old ASIN to help locate a match; it is not a claim that the historical ASIN is currently live. Confirm the four-port layout, included cable, adapter, and individual switches on the actual listing. This assessment uses manufacturer specifications, not personal testing or customer-review synthesis.

Plan for ordinary data expansion, not an unstated power guarantee

The included 5V/2A adapter is a documented hub supply, but the source does not state how much current is available at each output or how the four ports share power. The individual switches help manage connections; they do not turn the USB-A sockets into certified fast-charge outputs. Check the connected devices' power needs and look for a per-port or total output rating if they are important. This distinction is especially useful when a desk hub will stay connected to storage and accessories throughout the day.
