AURA RGB One Point Ten 5V Hub with SATA Power – 10-Port RGB Lighting Controller in Black

If you have upgraded your PC with addressable RGB fans, LED strips, or other 5V lighting devices, you may have run into the common problem of too few motherboard headers. The AURA RGB One Point Ten 5V Hub provides a straightforward solution: it allows you to connect up to ten separate RGB devices from a single 3pin 5V motherboard header, using a SATA power supply to deliver stable current. This keeps your lighting consistent and prevents the dimming that can occur when the motherboard alone is overloaded. Designed in a compact black housing, it integrates neatly into most builds and supports standard 5V addressable RGB ecosystems.

Features and Construction

This hub is built around a simple but effective design that prioritises reliability and ease of use. The SATA power input takes the electrical load off your motherboard, while the ten output ports each handle a single 5V RGB device. All connections use the standard 3pin 5V addressable RGB pinout, so you can use it with compatible fans, strips, and other lighting components.

Material and Build

The hub is housed in black ABS plastic, chosen for its durability and low profile inside the PC case. The SATA power connector is moulded into the unit, and the 3pin input cable is attached for direct connection to the motherboard. No other materials are specified, but the construction is focused on practical, no-frills cable management.

Size and Practical Fit

Exact dimensions of the hub are not provided, but its compact size is inferred from its purpose as a cable-organising component. The ten ports are arranged on one edge, and the SATA power input on another, making it suitable for mounting in standard PC cases with double-sided tape or screw holes (not included). The recommended maximum cable length of 3.3 feet per device helps maintain voltage and brightness across all connected lights.

Uses and Placement

This hub is designed for desktop PC builders who want to add multiple RGB lighting components without upgrading their motherboard. It is also useful for upgrading older systems that lack sufficient 5V RGB headers.

Event or Professional Use

For system integrators or tech enthusiasts building multiple custom PCs, the hub simplifies wiring by centralising all RGB connections. The SATA power eliminates the need for additional power supplies, and the ten ports allow for a single hub to handle lighting for an entire mid-tower build.

Everyday Home Use

Regular PC users can install this hub to add decorative RGB strips to their desk setup or to sync case fans with motherboard software. It is a simple DIY upgrade that requires no special tools – just plug the SATA cable into your power supply and the 3pin input into the motherboard header.

Benefits and Buying Value

The primary benefit of this hub is scalability: it turns one motherboard header into ten ports. This saves you from buying a new motherboard or using multiple splitters, which can introduce voltage drop issues.

Reuse and Low Maintenance

The hub is a passive component with no moving parts, so it requires no maintenance beyond occasional cleaning. It can be reused across different PC builds as long as the new system has a SATA power cable and a 5V RGB header. The SATA power connector is a standard industry type, ensuring long-term compatibility.

Why Choose This Product

If you need to control more than two or three RGB devices and your motherboard has limited 5V headers, this hub offers a low-cost, straightforward way to expand. It avoids the complexity of standalone RGB controllers that require separate software, and it works with the existing AURA sync ecosystem on compatible motherboards.
