4 Port USB2.0 Hub with mains power (Typhoon - silver)
The 4 port USB2.0 hub is a useful way of increasing the number of USB ports your computer has. The benefit of this hub is that it has a mains power charger. All USB devices draw some power. However, the USB port only supplies a limited amount of power. With this powered hub, you can connect a range of peripherals that draw more power (combined) than the on-board USB port can supply. Thus, the hub supplies power to the peripherals, enabling you to use products like USB speakers, USB modems, external hard drives (like our Mobile drives) and many others.
The USB2.0 hub is quite small, and a USB extension lead lets you locate the hub at a convenient distance from your computer.
