Compact USB 2.0 hub with wired Ethernet

This white adapter adds three USB 2.0 ports and a 10/100 Mbps RJ45 network connection to any computer with a spare USB 2.0 socket. It draws power from the host port so no external supply is needed. The device measures about 98 by 25 by 11 mm and supports Windows 2000 through Windows 7, Mac OS X 10 and Linux kernel 2.6 or newer. A driver CD is included in the original package.

Replaces separate hub

Users who only have one USB 2.0 port but need both extra peripherals and a wired network link can consolidate both functions into this single unit. The jump is worthwhile when a laptop or thin client lacks an onboard Ethernet jack and the owner prefers a stable cable connection over wireless. It is not suited for buyers who want more storage or builders who need a second card.

Steady throughput within USB 2.0 limits

The Ethernet side negotiates at 10 or 100 Mbps while the three downstream ports share the 480 Mbps high-speed bus, falling back to 12 Mbps full-speed when required. Because the hub is bus-powered, sustained transfers across all four interfaces stay inside the host port’s current budget without thermal throttling. Performance scales with the host controller rather than bursting above the USB 2.0 specification.

Questions about this item

How much desk space does the 98 x 25 x 11 mm adapter need?

The adapter measures 98 mm long, 25 mm wide and 11 mm high, so it fits in a tight laptop bag pocket or beside a keyboard without blocking adjacent ports.

Which driver step do users often skip on Windows 7 or Linux 2.6?

Run the driver from the included CD before plugging the adapter in; otherwise the 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port and the three USB 2.0 ports may not appear in Device Manager.

When should the supplied CD be kept for future reinstalls?

Keep the CD for any clean OS install on Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7, Mac OS X 10 or Linux 2.6 and above, because the adapter has no built-in driver store.
