Product Description

Product Description

gHub expands a single USB port into 4 equivalent ports that are available for additional USB devices or USB-Hubs. gHub is what you need once the built-in USB connectors and the free connector on the USB keyboard are filled up and you start tiring of swapping USB components in and out of your configuration! Devices like USB Floppy Drives, SuperDisks, USB ISDN adapters or USB ZIP drives are another reason to use gHub. These high-power devices require too much current to reliably operate from a keyboard USB-port that is not self-powered.Connecting the powered gHub to your vacant keyboard USB port will offer more ports - all of them supporting both high- and low-power USB devices. The overcurrent protection feature ensures your computer remains unaffected by such a condition on the USB bus. If a fault is detected with any USB device connected to gHub only the affected port will be shut down, allowing trouble-free operation of the rest of the system. This is especially valuable in a setup requiring reliable operation day-in, day-out. gHub was designed for Power Macintosh G4 and the iMac Special Edition. This does not prevent it from being the ideal USB hub for any computer that offers a USB port and is driven by a USB-capable operating system!
