Gone are the days owners of the latest MacBook edition have to choose which device they want to connect to using the USB-C thanks to Cusby, which has introduced its line of modular and expandable solutions to break free single port limitations. Rather than rely on a bulky USB hub or docking station, Cusby is modular, meaning users don’t have to commit to a set of ports that you may or may not use.

Instead, just plug in the appropriate Cusby that serves current needs. The more devices users need connected, the more building blocks they can add, while always keeping a USB-C port open, because for every Cusby connected, a new USB-C port is created. At launch, Cusby will be offering three models.

The USB-C Power Port, which offers a USB-C port to connect a power adapter to charge theMacBook. The USB-A Data Port will connect any standard device like a smartphone, tablet, keyboard, mouse and printer and the HDMI Video/Audio Port will connect to an external display, TV set or receiver to transfer HD-quality video and audio to any compatible device.

“The USB-C is a game-changer offering a truly powerful standard protocol for high speed data transfer and power charging, but on the latest MacBook, the single port over shadows its greatness, instead highlighting the inconvenience having just one port actually is,” said Albert Garvett, Co-Founder and CEO, Cusby. “With most consumers often needing to charge and connect to a device simultaneously, we spent countless hours developing a solution that would fit every consumer’s needs in a solution that is portable and affordable.”

The Cusby building blocks are now available for pre-order starting at $25 on Indiegogo.
