The Coolgear USB 3.2 Gen 1 hub is a 4 port industrial hub with a small form factor that accommodates up to 5Gbps of data transmission. It’s both surface and DIN Rail mountable with its included DIN Rail clips and screws. It supports Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, 11 Linux, and Mac OS10.X operating systems and supports 5 hops to cascade with other hubs.
The USB 3.2 Gen 1 4 port hub is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand yet can handle large amounts of super-speed data from its downstream ports. Each of the USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports supports the battery charging specification 1.2 for normal charging at .900mA per port. Normal charging allows the USB hub to charge low power devices that depend on charging to operate. Operating USB equipment such as printers, scanners, portable drives, virtual reality gear and others are not a problem with this USB 3.2 Gen 1 hub.

When high-power USB peripherals are used, a power supply for the USB hub may be required. In other cases, the USB peripheral may require their own power adapters, in this case, a power supply for the hub may not be required. Without ample power though, the USB hub or connected peripherals may not operate correctly. It is recommended to use an included power supply when possible.
To prevent this, follow the steps below (depending on your operating system).
Windows 10 / 8
Note: You may need to disconnect and re-connect your USB device after applying these settings.
Windows 7 / Vista
Note: You may need to disconnect and re-connect your USB device after applying these settings.
Windows XP
Note: You may need to disconnect and re-connect your USB device after applying these settings.
Moving on to troubleshooting the hub itself. Attach a USB peripheral. The USB hub itself will not appear in hardware listings on your host’s system. USB devices connected however, will appear when connected. If the connected device is still not being found, try:
USB hubs do not require drivers or software.
Troubleshooting the desired USB peripheral may be in order. If the peripheral is still not being recognized, attempt:
External power is supplied by connecting to the terminal block located on the hub. For when an external power adapter is required check out the Accessories & Replacement Parts section on this product page. To view all of our hub accessories and power supplies, visit the category here.
To determine the power requirements, the equation to use is P = 5 * I * N, where:
P is the power wattage.
5 is the USB port voltage.
I is the current of the USB port in Amps (USB 2.0 is 0.5A, USB 3.0 is 0.9A.
N is the number of USB ports.
As an example using the equation, a 4 port hub would reflect a minimum wattage of 18 watts.
Knowing the minimum requirement, a proper power adapter can be chosen. In this case the voltage of a power supply should be within 7 to 24 or 7 to 40 Volts DC, depending on the specifications of the USB hub. Also, the power supply must convert AC to DC (no AC output).
Power supplies often come with a voltage (V) rating and an amperage (A) rating. To determine the current in amps, use I = P / V, where the following is true:
I is the current of the power supply.
P is the calculated power of the hub.
V is the chosen voltage of the power supply
Continuing the example, the 4 port hub requires 18 W and the power supply you choose is 12V, the current of the power supply would be I = 18/12, I = 1.5A.
