Utilitarian, compatible, high quality USB hub

Review by George Beckstein

Great quality, love the utilitarian look. It integrates well into my desk as a custom installation and does not draw attention to itself — it’s a USB hub not a decoration.Easy to mount out of the way due to its low profile AND the fact that the upstream USB port and DC power port are on the back side of the hub. With other hubs you’ll always have the upstream cable sticking out the front. Not ideal for flush-mounting to the edge of your desktop.I bought the USB 3.0 version because I had the same hub with USB 2.0. The older USB 2.0 version did not work properly with my thunderbolt dock (running a Dell XPS15 9570 and Dell TB16 dock). It would crash the whole USB bus on the dock after less than a minute of being connected, even after updating all the firmwares and drivers. The TB16 just doesn’t like the USB hub chips inside the USB 2.0 version. ??‍♂️The USB 3.0 version has cured this problem and given me many more built in ports on my electronics workbench! The added bandwidth of USB 3.0 is a nice plus.The price is relatively high for a USB hub, but this product makes up for it in being one of the only “low key” USB hubs available, with a metal chassis that is mountable, and it comes with a 12V/3A (36W) power supply that can provide some serious power to a number of connected USB devices. Further, most hubs will cheap out and include an unusably-short, poorly made USB cable. The cable provided with this one is sturdy, well built, and is 6ft long — long enough to run under and across my workbench to my dock from the opposite corner.Perfect. I plan to be using this hub for decades to come (or as long as USB 3.0 type A stays relevant)!

USB2 Hub is Good, But the USB3 Hub Is Bad!

Review by Tien

This USB2 hub is pretty good! I ended up ordering the second one!

I think USBGEAR should look into the USB3 hub (it said on the metallic cover: USB 3.1 Gen 1, but its paper box said USB 3.0! I use the name that I have ordered!). I have ordered this hub, but it doesn’t recognize my USB2 or USB3 hard drives (HDD). It recognizes my SSD drive and my USB2 mouse and USB2 keyboard that I have bought recently. My laptop doesn’t boot up if the external 2-pin power supply has been corrected. If I disconnect the power supply, my laptop will boot!

Good Product

Review by big D

Good product, nice packaging. The Power in should be isolated from the USB ports so that the host is not supplying power to multiple downstream devices.

Finally a hub that will let me connect Arduino's!

Review by R. Gilmore

I really like that the case is metal, so I'm sure it will stand up to some knocks.It's been hard to find a hub that will work with Arduino's. So I am very happy that they connect flawlessly.

Good value, works great

Review by carlB

Using it with my telescope equipment. Only wish it had an indication when cable was plugged in.

Good value and quality

Review by Dave

Commercial quality. One of few to transmit power from external source without USB connection to host.

Great reliable USB hub

Review by Drew

I use these hubs at point of sale stations for the excessive number of peripherals my company demands. In the past, we would use small plastic powered USB hubs that were completely unreliable. We have deployed over 20 of these devices over the past year and never had a problem. I could not be happier with the quality of this product, ease of mounting and ease of installation.

A really Good Powered USB Hud!!!

Review by Kortoga

Great powered USB Hub. I am using this inside a Home Arcade machine I am building. Looks great, and is industrial.

Good for Industrial Use

Review by HappyElderGeek

Nice product for an industrial USB Hub, but with a HUGE power supply. I like it because I can screw it under a desktop (or high on a desk's side wall) with only one cord from there to the computer. Definitely not for portable use (too heavy, and the mounting "ears" will get in the way).

This was a great choice for a last-minute design change

Review by Amazon Customer

This was a great choice for a last-minute design change, where we found our powered KVM extender couldn't deliver enough power to support local KMM peripherals. The hub allowed us to home-run a VGA and active USB cable back to our main KVM switch, and worked perfectly for our application. It also allows our user to add more peripherals (printers, etc...) to the system, and make them available to the entire virtual infrastructure.
