Accessory maker JSAUX, known for their range of Steam Deck products, are today launching a new USB-C hub dubbed the OmniCase 2 — aimed at "gamers and digital nomads".

This new travel-friendly accessory will come in two models: a standard OmniCase 2, and an OmniCase 2 Pro with additional ports.

Here's a quick run-down of what ports you can find on the base OmniCase 2 hub:

  • Three USB-A ports (two of which are 3.0 high-speed ports)
  • Two USB-C ports (one for input, one for power delivery)
  • HDMI 2.0 input
  • Ethernet adaptor
  • 3.5mm audio input/headphone jack
  • SD card slot and microSD card slot

The other OmniCase 2 Pro model gains an additional HDMI port, an extra USB-C port, and the addition of a DisplayPort input.

Both models of the OmniCase 2 open up to reveal additional, handy tech accessories within — including USB adapters/dongles, SD card holders, an iPhone charging adaptor, and even a SIM card eject pin. All of this is neatly stowed away in what looks like quite a tidy package overall. JSAUX note that this top storage section connects to the main hub via a magnetic closure, meaning everything in this all-in-one should be sturdy and secure when travelling.  

The device, which is launching via a Kickstarter, seems to pack in a range of useful ports and neat thoughtful features — all of which seem well suited to various portable gaming setups (such as with a Steam Deck or ROG Ally) or for simplifying travelling with a laptop.

This new take on the JSAUX all-in-one hub follows up the original device which launched a few years ago.

This new version is expected to start shipping in August at $59.99 for an early bird tier, and $79.99 during the remainder of the campaign. You can back it on Kickstarter.
