Twelve South StayGo USB-C Hub (2020)

Twelve South's StayGo is a desk-friendly USB-C hub aimed at MacBook and iPad Pro owners who want a clean cable run. It carries an 85W USB-C PD pass-through to the host laptop, a separate USB-C input for the external charger, three USB-A 3.0 ports (one is BC 1.2 fast-charge), 4K-ready HDMI, Gigabit Ethernet, and dual SD plus microSD card slots. A unique twist is the cable strategy: the hub ships with a 1-metre desktop cable plus a stowable 20cm travel cable that lives inside the hub itself. Twelve South has retired the product from sale, but it remains common in the wild.

Twelve South’s USB-C hub with 85W PD pass-through, HDMI 4K, 3x USB-A, Gigabit Ethernet, SD and microSD readers.
