the maximum wattage only comes into play if you use *all* ports, which
you won't be.

what matters is the capabilities of each port, which should be about
10-12w.

This isn't even close to true based on the description of the part
on the package and on the web.

it's hard to read with that popup in the middle and no way to clear it
without an email address, but i didn't see anything that contradicts
what i said underneath, other than a nifty typo.

the point is that no single port is going to source 6.8a. fill all five
ports with 1a devices and it'll be fine. if one of the five is a tablet
that draws 2a, it'll still be fine. if the *total* goes past 6.8a, then
not so fine.
