That's not going to work as you hope, sorry. The SD card slot may work. I doubt the LAN will work (but it might). You will not get video out, certainly. Basically, the hub is designed for a newer computer with Thunderbolt 3 / USB-C ports that carry far more data than the USB-A ports on your older Mac.
