  • Backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 devices
  • Plug and play works without driver installation
  • Overload protection safeguards every connected port

Seven-port USB 3.0 hub for multi-device users

This aluminium hub adds seven SuperSpeed USB 3.0 ports to a laptop, desktop or notebook through a single upstream connection. It is aimed at anyone who needs to attach several peripherals such as external drives, cameras, phones, keyboards, mice or printers at once. Plug-and-play operation works across Windows, Mac OS X and Linux without driver installation.

Replaces a single built-in port when more

The jump is worth it whenever a computer offers only one or two USB sockets but the user must run multiple devices simultaneously. Backward compatibility with USB 2.0 and 1.1 means existing cables and older peripherals continue to work without adapters. Hot-swap support lets users connect or disconnect individual ports without restarting the system.

Limited by the 5 Gbps aggregate bandwidth

All seven ports share the single USB 3.0 connection to the host, so sustained transfers on several high-speed drives will contend for that 5 Gbps ceiling. The hub draws power from the host port, so total current is constrained by what the computer can supply. Each port includes overload detection, but the hub cannot deliver more power than the upstream port provides.

Questions about this item

What type of upstream connector does the 7-port hub use to reach 5Gbps?

It uses a single USB 3.0 upstream connector to provide SuperSpeed data rates up to 5Gbps on all seven downstream ports.

How is the hub powered and what step do users often miss?

The hub is bus-powered from the host USB 3.0 port; the common mistake is connecting many high-draw devices without checking the host port’s current limit.

What ongoing protection do the seven ports provide?

Each port includes current overload detection and protection that operates continuously, so no user maintenance or replacement parts are required.
