4 Port High Speed USB Hub
Features
A USB port in the front of the case can be essential
for some of us. The front access port can be a quick place to plug in a digital
camera, a portable MP3 player or a joystick without having to pull the case out
from under the desk and fumble around looking for the USB port.
As my numerous devices that require a USB connection have grown I have found
myself in need of aUSB Hub to fit all of these "must needed" accessories. While
shopping around my main objective was to find one that was fairly inexpensive
but diverse enough to add on in the future. The Mouse 4 Port High Speed USB Hub
fits this requirement to the letter. This device would give me the added few
ports that I needed for now and the ability to add on in the future should the
need arise.
I was impressed with the fact that the Mouse 4 Port High Speed USB Hub could
operate with or without the included power source. When used in the bus-powered
mode (without power) the hub will supply each devise 100mA of power which should
be enough for most mice, joysticks, and other low-power devices. In the
self-powered mode (with power) this Hub provides 500mA to each downstream port
allowing for connection to other hubs as well as some really power hungry
devices such as my USB Camera.
When you have out grown the two USB ports of your computer and are in need of
additional space the Mouse 4 Port High Speed USB Hub is certainly the way to go.
I found it extremely easy to install and in minutes all my devices were up and
running without even having to re-boot my system. With the Mouse 4 Port High
Speed USB Hubself powered feature, it will allow me to add additional hubs
allowing up to 127 different devices to be connected to a single USB port.
