Equip 128968 — a hub and card reader that clips to the edge of the desk
2 x USB-A + 1 x USB-CSD and microSD, both at onceClamps to desk or monitorAluminium, 105 g
The Equip 128968 solves a different problem from a hub that lies on the desk: it clamps to the edge of a desk or a monitor, up to 30 mm thick, so the ports sit in reach and nothing is taking up surface space. It brings two USB-A ports, one USB-C port and both an SD 3.0 and a microSD slot, all at up to 5 Gbps, and Equip states both cards can be used at the same time. A screw locking mechanism with a silicone pad holds it without scratching, and the housing is aluminium.
Compatibility — check before buying:
Check the edge first: the clamp fits a desk or monitor up to 30 mm thick. It is a USB-C host — the hub plugs into a USB-C port on your machine. There is a separate USB-C 5 V / 2 A socket for power, and the power cord is not included: that socket is an input, not an extra data port and not a charging output, so a phone plugged in there will do nothing useful. Equip does not publish a per-port current figure, so bus-powered hard drives are not a safe assumption without the extra supply. The card slots are 3.0-generation reading UHS-I speeds; faster UHS-II media works but at UHS-I rates.
Best For
✓ Desks where surface space is the scarce thing
✓ Photographers and videographers emptying cards
✓ Monitor arms and standing desks
✓ Flash drives, mice and keyboards
✓ Shared or hot-desk workstations
✓ Anyone tired of reaching behind the machine
Key Features
It clamps instead of sitting there
An adjustable clip with a screw lock and a silicone pad grips a desk or monitor edge up to 30 mm without marking it — the ports end up at eye level or at the edge of the desk, not buried behind a tower.
Cards and USB in one place
SD 3.0 and microSD 3.0 slots sit alongside two USB-A and one USB-C port, and Equip states both cards can be used simultaneously, so the reader stops being a separate dongle occupying a port.
A power socket when you need it
A dedicated USB-C 5 V / 2 A input lets you feed the hub from your own adapter rather than from the laptop, which is what keeps things stable when several devices are connected. The power cord is not supplied.
Technical Specifications
Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight
Almost every hub in our USB hub range asks for desk space. This one asks for an edge instead, and if you work on a small desk or a standing desk that is the whole argument — the ports come to the front where your hands are, and nothing slides around. The card reader makes it a genuine two-in-one: SD and microSD both live, both usable at once, which is more than several standalone card readers manage. Two things to be clear about before ordering: the clamp needs an edge of 30 mm or less, and the second USB-C socket is a power inlet rather than a fifth data port — the count of five is two USB-A, one USB-C and the two card slots. If you want the same clamp without the reader and with an extra USB-C data port instead, that is the Equip 128967.
Buyer’s Guide
Buy it if
Desk space is scarce and you would rather clip the ports to an edge than lay a hub on the surface. You empty SD or microSD cards and want the reader built in. Your machine has a USB-C port and you want an aluminium unit that grips without marking.
Skip it if
Your desk or monitor edge is thicker than 30 mm. You expected the second USB-C socket to be a data port or a charging output — it is a power inlet. You are running bus-powered hard drives, where no per-port figure is published.
Also consider
Equip 128967 for the same clamp hub with two USB-C data ports and no card reader. A desktop hub if you have surface space to spare. A dedicated card reader if the slots are all you actually need.
