The USBG-7U2ML is designed to provide quick and easy access to your USB devices. It provides seven type “A” downstream ports for connecting USB devices. A single type “B” upstream port connects the USBG-7U2ML to the host computer or another USB hub. The connection allows up to 127 devices by cascading multiple hubs. Configured directly by the operating system, the USBG-7U2ML operates seamlessly with both Microsoft Windows and AppleOperating Systems.
The USBG-7U2ML USB 2.0 Hub buffers USB data from any attached peripheral in compliance with USB specifications. The 7-Port USB 2.0 slim Hub supports both low speed (1.5Mbps and 12Mbps) and high-speed (480Mbps) devices. Each port creates a bridge between the peripheral and host computer.
LED provides power port status while connected. The USBG-7U2ML includes a Quick Install Guide, a 6-foot Hi-Speed USB 2.0 certified A to B cable, and an 110/220 AC power supply.

Utilitarian, compatible, high quality USB hub
Great quality, love the utilitarian look. It integrates well into my desk as a custom installation and does not draw attention to itself — it’s a USB hub not a decoration.Easy to mount out of the way due to its low profile AND the fact that the upstream USB port and DC power port are on the back side of the hub. With other hubs you’ll always have the upstream cable sticking out the front. Not ideal for flush-mounting to the edge of your desktop.I bought the USB 3.0 version because I had the same hub with USB 2.0. The older USB 2.0 version did not work properly with my thunderbolt dock (running a Dell XPS15 9570 and Dell TB16 dock). It would crash the whole USB bus on the dock after less than a minute of being connected, even after updating all the firmwares and drivers. The TB16 just doesn’t like the USB hub chips inside the USB 2.0 version. ??♂️The USB 3.0 version has cured this problem and given me many more built in ports on my electronics workbench! The added bandwidth of USB 3.0 is a nice plus.The price is relatively high for a USB hub, but this product makes up for it in being one of the only “low key” USB hubs available, with a metal chassis that is mountable, and it comes with a 12V/3A (36W) power supply that can provide some serious power to a number of connected USB devices. Further, most hubs will cheap out and include an unusably-short, poorly made USB cable. The cable provided with this one is sturdy, well built, and is 6ft long — long enough to run under and across my workbench to my dock from the opposite corner.Perfect. I plan to be using this hub for decades to come (or as long as USB 3.0 type A stays relevant)!

Nice product for an industrial USB Hub, but with a HUGE power supply. I like it because I can screw it under a desktop (or high on a desk’s side wall) with only one cord from there to the computer. Definitely not for portable use (too heavy, and the mounting “ears” will get in the way).

This was a great choice for a last-minute design change, where we found our powered KVM extender couldn’t deliver enough power to support local KMM peripherals. The hub allowed us to home-run a VGA and active USB cable back to our main KVM switch, and worked perfectly for our application. It also allows our user to add more peripherals (printers, etc…) to the system, and make them available to the entire virtual infrastructure.

Don’t pay twice by buying cheap products – This product is not cheap but it’s worth the price. Industry strength product. Never failed. I’ve been using it for over 2 years now, and would recommend it to any one. I’m about to buy another one for my growing network.

No problems with this device at all. Nice metal frame. Good weight. Worked perfectly with Windows 7 and Windows 8. Never tried with Mac OSX.
