CalDigit USB Hub Support Driver is Drivers & Hardware software for Mac.

About

CalDigit USB Hub Support Driver is a macOS package described as supporting Apple SuperDrive, Apple Keyboard, and improved iPhone/iPad charging. It installs a kernel extension, so installation may require approval in macOS Privacy & Security settings.

  • Intended for Apple SuperDrive and Apple Keyboard support through a USB hub.
  • Described as providing improved iPhone and iPad charging.
  • Installation includes a kernel extension; if setup fails, retry after allowing it in System Settings → Privacy & Security.
  • A restart is required for the installation to take effect.

Install with brew install --cask caldigit-usb-hub-support-driver. If macOS blocks the kernel extension, approve it in System Settings → Privacy & Security, then restart the Mac. The package metadata specifies a macOS dependency but does not identify particular supported macOS versions.
