If you are looking for a reliable plug and play multipoint powered USB hub that can handle all ports at the same time and has no connection drop-outs, check out the Plugable USB 3.0 10-port Hub!
The Plugable USB 3.0 10-port hub comes with a sleek black glossy finish, it has two BC1.2 smart charging ports for tablets and smartphones, as well as a 12 V 4A UL-certified power supply with UK 3-pin plug and European 2-pin cables that outputs a total of 48 watts.
If you are using an unpowered multi port hub before, you really are going to love this 10 port powered hub by Plugable Technologies. Not only you get super fast speed transfers (up to 5Gbps) but you can also use it standalone, meaning you don't have to connect it to a computer. All of this is possible thanks to three built-in VIA VL812 B2 hub chipsets and v9091/ v9095 firmware.
You will be able to connect a printer, external hard drives, USB flash drives and scanner and use them all at the same time without any loss in performance. In fact, performance was very good even with two 3TB 3.5 inch drives I had hooked up to the hub (almost the same as directly connected to them).
Another great thing about the Plugable USB 3.0 10-port hub is that you can use it without external power should you want to.
Also, with 10 ports you get plenty of ports to spare and better still, no more having to disconnect or swap USB leads because of shortage of USB ports.
A few other great features that come with the Plugable USB 3.0 10-port hub include a cool blue LED bar on the front of the unit, USB over-current protection for all ports (up to 1.5A for the pop-up ports and up to 900mA for the other ports) and backwards compatibility which means you can use the Plugable USB 3.0 10-port hub with Low-Speed (USB 1.1) and Hi-Speed devices (USB 2.0).
