USB-keskitin IOGEAR GUH285W6

The IOGEAR GUH285W6 is a compact 4-port USB 2.0 hub that expands a single USB connection into four Hi-Speed ports with a maximum data transfer rate of 480 Mbit/s. Its slim black enclosure (approximately 93.98 x 29.97 x 8.89 mm, 22.7 g) includes a tuck-away A–B USB cable and side-panel port layout for convenient desktop placement and portability. The hub is USB 2.0 compliant, backward compatible with USB 1.1 devices, and includes a USB cable for immediate use.

Advantages

The hub offers four Hi-Speed USB 2.0 ports for simultaneous device connection and supports plug-and-play operation with hot-swap capability, so no driver installation is required for supported operating systems. Its compact, lightweight design with a retractable cable reduces clutter and improves portability. LEDs provide simple status indication, and the device is covered by IOGEAR's 3 Year Limited Warranty.

Suitable for

• Connecting multiple USB peripherals such as keyboards, mice, flash drives and printers

How to use

Connect the tuck-away A–B USB cable from the IOGEAR GUH285W6 to an available USB port on your computer. Attach up to four USB devices to the side-panel ports. The hub supports plug-and-play operation on compatible operating systems; devices should be recognised automatically. Use the LEDs to verify power and activity status. For externally powered devices that require more current than the hub provides, connect devices to a powered USB port or use a self-powered hub solution.

Recommendations

For best results, avoid connecting multiple high-current devices (such as external hard drives that draw significant power) simultaneously without an external power source. If you need to run power-hungry peripherals, consider a powered USB hub or connect those devices directly to the computer's powered USB ports.
