If your computer has no USB 3.0 port (i.e. on the mainboard or a USB 3.0 card), you can also
connect the product to a USB 2.0/1.1 port. Devices connected to the USB hub (both USB 2.0
and USB 1.1) will work at normal USB 2.0/1.1 speeds.
The USB hub works in the so-called “bus powered mode”. This means that the power via the
computer to the USB hub is supplied to all four ports (according to the USB 3.0 standard 900
mA, according to the USB 2.0 standard 500 mA).
This is sufcient for most mice or keyboards; however,many other devices may no longer
function correctly (for example, external 6.35 cm / 2.5” hard drives, USB cameras, etc.).
Once the LED on top of the product lights up, the product is ready for use.
3. Windows will recognize the new hardware and install the drivers automatically.
4. Connect your USB devices to the USB hub.
Tips & notes
• The USB 3.0 hub is USB 2.0/1.1 compatible. This means that common USB 2.0/1.1 devices can be
operated via the USB 3.0 hub without any problems. However, the USB 2.0/1.1 devices will not work any
faster!
• To use the USB 3.0 hub at its full speed, all devices used must support USB 3.0: The USB device itself (i.e.
external hard drive), the USB hub and your computer’s USB controller.
• In practice, the theoretical maximum speed of USB 3.0 (or USB 2.0/1.1) is not reached. The reason for this
may include protocol information, simultaneous use of several USB devices or speed restrictions imposed
by the connected USB device or your USB controller/mainboard.
• In DOS or in Windows Safe Mode, USB operation is not possible. Depending on your computer or BIOS
and setup settings, you may nevertheless be able to use a USB keyboard or USB mouse. It may be
necessary to connect these devices directly to your computer’s USB ports and not to a USB hub.
• USB devices can be connected and disconnected during use. Your computer need not be turned off to
connect or disconnect devices.
• If data transfer is taking place via the USB port – i.e. if an external hard drive is transferring data to your
computer – and you disconnect the USB plug, your operating system may crash. This may also result in
datalostordamagetothelesystemofyourexternalharddrive.
• In Windows
®
XP, Vista™, 7, 8 an arrow may appear in the menu bar when some devices are connected
(i.e. a USB hard drive). This function allows you to “disconnect” the USB device from your computer. After
that, you can unplug the USB device without any danger.
• Always use appropriate USB 3.0 cables to connect USB 3.0 devices. Please note that the longer the
USB 3.0 cable, the slower the data transfer rate may be.

Operation
Make sure the total power input of all connected USB devices does not exceed
900 mA (when connected to a USB 3.0 port of a computer) or 500 mA (when connected to a USB
2.0 port of a computer) respectively.
If necessary, connect an optionally available power adaptor (see “Technical data”) to the DC
socket next to the USB cable to supply higher output current per USB port.
1. If needed, attach the included rubber feet to the bottom of the USB hub. This ensures that the product
is stable and also serves to prevent damage to surfaces.
2. Connect the USB hub via its USB cable to a free USB 3.0 port on your computer. The computer does
not need to be turned off.
