Bonelk 3-in-1 USB-C Multiport Hub
$54.54 ex GST
($59.99 inc GST)
A three-in-one multiport hub — HDMI out plus USB ports from a single USB-C connection. The smallest hub that will get a laptop onto a classroom display, which for most teachers is the only thing they need one for.
What it does:
HDMI video output
USB ports for peripherals
Long-Life reinforced cable at the connector
Small enough to live in a laptop bag rather than a drawer, which is the difference between having it when you need it and borrowing one from the next room. Purchase orders accepted on school accounts.
Bonelk 6-in-1 USB-C Multiport Hub
$90.90 ex GST
($99.99 inc GST)
A six-in-one multiport hub — HDMI, USB ports, card reader and power pass-through from a single USB-C connection. The middle of the Bonelk range, and the one that covers most of what a teacher laptop runs into.
What it does:
HDMI video output for classroom displays and projectors
USB ports for peripherals
Card reader for camera and drone footage
Power pass-through, so the laptop charges while the hub is connected
Power pass-through is the feature worth understanding. Without it, plugging in the hub means giving up the charging port — which is fine for a lesson and a problem for a full day. Purchase orders accepted on school accounts.
Bonelk Desktop 9-in-1 USB-C Dock
$154.54 ex GST
($169.99 inc GST)
A nine-port desktop dock for a fixed workstation — one USB-C cable to the laptop, and everything else stays permanently connected. For a staff desk or a library terminal, this is what replaces the daily ritual of plugging in four separate cables.
What it does:
Nine ports from a single USB-C connection
Display output, USB-A and USB-C ports, card reader and Ethernet
Power pass-through, so the laptop charges through the same cable
Desktop form factor — designed to stay on the desk, not travel
Available in black or space grey.
Dock or hub? A portable hub goes in the bag with the laptop and does two or three jobs. A desktop dock stays put and does everything, so arriving at the desk means connecting one cable. For a teacher with an assigned workstation, the dock saves a few minutes every single day.

Bonelk USB-C Multiport Hub — 4-in-1 to 14-in-1
from $40.90 ex GST
($44.99 inc GST)
Multiport hubs that turn one USB-C port into everything a laptop is missing — HDMI for the classroom display, USB-A for older peripherals, Ethernet for wired network, and card slots for camera work.
Choose by how much you need:
4-in-1 — the basics for a teacher laptop: display out and a couple of USB ports
USB-A 5-in-1 — for older laptops and desktops that still run USB-A
8-in-1 — adds card readers and Ethernet, for media and STEM work
11-in-1 — a near-docking-station spec for a fixed workstation
14-in-1 — the full set, for a staff desk driving multiple displays
Which to buy for a school. A teacher who moves between rooms wants the smallest hub that reaches a display — fewer ports means less to carry and less to lose. A fixed staff workstation is the opposite case, where a bigger hub replaces a drawer full of adapters.

Bonelk Vision — USB-C Multiport Hub
from $72.72 ex GST
($79.99 inc GST)
The Vision range uses a clear housing, so you can see the internals. That's mostly a styling choice — but in a classroom it's a genuinely useful one, because a transparent hub becomes a small teaching object when students ask what's inside the thing they plug into every day.
Choose your configuration:
6-in-1 — HDMI, USB ports and power pass-through
6-in-1 with card reader — adds SD and MicroSD for camera and drone work
8-in-1 — the fullest Vision spec, adding Ethernet
Long-Life construction at the cable and connector, which is where hubs fail in a school — the lead gets pulled sideways out of a laptop dozens of times a week.

Satechi USB-C Mobile Pro Hub
$81.81 ex GST
($89.99 inc GST)
A compact travel hub adding HDMI, USB and a headphone jack to a laptop or tablet. Small enough to live in a bag, which matters more than port count for a teacher who moves between rooms.
What it does:
HDMI output for classroom displays and projectors
USB ports for peripherals
3.5mm headphone jack — useful on devices that have dropped it
Silver or space grey
Where it fits: a teacher laptop or an iPad used for presenting. The headphone jack is the detail worth noting — it means a wired headset still works on a device with only USB-C.

Satechi USB-C Multi-Port Adapter — 4K HDMI & Ethernet
$145.45 ex GST
($160.00 inc GST)
A multiport adapter with 4K HDMI and Gigabit Ethernet — the two things a modern laptop most often lacks when it has to work in a classroom or a lab.
What it does:
4K HDMI output for displays, panels and projectors
Gigabit Ethernet for wired network
USB ports for peripherals
Silver or space grey
Why Ethernet matters in a school. Online assessment is the usual reason — a dropped Wi-Fi connection mid-session costs more than the adapter. Worth holding a few in the IT cupboard even if your fleet runs wireless day to day.

Satechi USB-C Slim Multiport Adapter
from $99.99 ex GST
($109.99 inc GST)
Slim multiport adapters that add HDMI, USB-A and card readers to a laptop or tablet that only has USB-C. Aluminium bodies sized to sit alongside a MacBook without looking bolted on.
Choose by how many ports you need:
4-in-1 — display out plus a couple of USB ports. Enough for a teacher laptop that needs to reach a classroom display.
6-in-1 — adds card readers, for camera, drone and media work
7-in-1 — adds Ethernet, for wired network on a laptop with no RJ45 port
OntheGo 7-in-1 — the same port count in a more portable body
13-in-1 Triple Display — drives three monitors, for a fixed workstation doing design, video or data work
Buying for a school. A teacher moving between rooms wants the smallest adapter that reaches a display — fewer ports means less to carry and less to lose. A fixed workstation is the opposite: a bigger adapter replaces a drawer of dongles.
