Satechi launches elegant USB Type-C Aluminum Monitor Stand Hub for Apple iMac
Apple's iMac computers are elegant and powerful. The all-in-one macOS desktop computers are used by both home users and professionals alike. In fact, last year, the company even launched the iMac Pro -- a version of the computer with more power and a space gray exterior (the non-Pro models are silver).
Popular company Satechi makes many accessories for Apple products, including the aforementioned iMac Pro. Today, it launches yet another -- a USB Type-C Aluminum Monitor Stand Hub. It will work with both iMac and iMac Pro. This includes older iMac computers without USB-C -- a Type-A adapter is included at no extra charge. Since Apple's all-in-one desktops cannot be adjusted vertically, this product from Satechi allows you to lift it up a bit. In addition, it serves as a hub, bringing ports to the front of the computer for easier access.

Satechi’s plug and play Type-C Aluminum Monitor Stand Hub for iMac is the perfect desk companion for peripheral devices. The built-in USB-C data port (up to 5 Gbps), three USB 3.0 ports (up to 5 Gbps), micro/SD card slots (UHS-I, up to 104 Mbps) and audio jack place the most-used ports within reach for maximum productivity," says Satechi.
