USB-keskitin Exsys EX-11217HMVS – 7-porttinen metallikeskitin, 15 kV ESD-suoja

Exsys EX-11217HMVS is a 7-port USB hub in a robust metal housing designed to centralize USB connectivity for desktops, workstations and shared work areas. The device provides seven downstream USB ports for connecting peripherals such as keyboards, mice, printers, storage devices and measurement instruments. Built-in 15 kV electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection reduces the risk of damage from static discharges in office, home and laboratory environments where multiple USB devices are used concurrently.

Advantages

The metal enclosure offers mechanical durability and improved heat dissipation compared with plastic designs, while the seven available ports enable consolidation of multiple peripherals to a single host connection. Integrated 15 kV ESD protection helps protect connected equipment from transient electrostatic events. The hub’s compact footprint suits desktop placement and reduces cable clutter, supporting reliable everyday operation in multi-device setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting multiple input devices (keyboard, mouse) to a single computer
• Expanding USB ports for printers, scanners and external drives
• Laboratory and testing workstations requiring ESD protection for instruments
• Office desks and shared workstations with many peripheral devices
• Home offices where several USB accessories must be connected simultaneously

Key specifications

• Number of downstream USB ports: 7
• Housing material: metal
• Electrostatic discharge protection: up to 15 kV
• Intended use: desktop/workstation USB port expansion
• Form factor: compact desktop hub

How to use

Place the hub on a stable surface close to the host computer and connect it to the host using the supplied upstream cable. Plug peripherals into the available downstream ports as required. The hub is plug-and-play with most modern operating systems; no additional drivers are typically required. For devices that demand stable power or high data throughput, connect them to the hub one at a time and verify recognition by the host before normal operation.

Recommendations

To minimize the risk of data loss and ensure device longevity, avoid disconnecting storage devices during active transfers and keep the hub in a ventilated area to prevent heat buildup. In environments with frequent static activity, maintain grounding practices for users and equipment to complement the hub’s built‑in ESD protection.
