Dr. Bott T7Hub 7-port USB Hub, Silver

Description:

T7Hub is typically used when the built-in USB ports are hopelessly outnumbered by the many USB peripherals you own. If you routinely use 4 or more USB devices T7Hub will undoubtedly be at the epicenter of your USB activities.

T7Hub extends a native USB port to accomodate up to 7 USB devices or further USB hubs. The necessary USB A-B cable for creating the uplink is included in the package.

Anybody with a number of power-hungry USB devices will appreciate the T7Hub's ability to drive 7 such devices (with 0.5 A each, the maximum current permitted for an individual USB device). This is because T7Hub, unlike other products on the market, comes with a 3.5 A power supply. Aside offering enough power for the most demanding applications it is also one of the smallest power supplies in its category so it will not burden you at all!

Power users will also appreciate the reliability T7Hub offers. T7Hub transforms fickle performance from a bus-powered port on a keyboard into reliable duty cycles that last as long as your work requires.
