Now I have 3 computers here and only one does not have a front panel USB connection. Since it's on the floor and under the desk any time I wanted to connect a USB device I would have to get on my hands and knees and under there to do this. At my age that is getting harder and harder to do as each year goes by. I had a spare $25 so I went to WalMart and found this hub for
$20.

Now this device is USB 1.1/2 compatible , so it can be used with just about any USB device. Now this can be powered off the usb connection of the pc. But because this can only supply only so much a poweer supply adapter is included so each port can supply the max is able.
There are 5 leds in this device-a power led for when power is supplied to it and 4 leds to show when each port is active.
The length of the cable is long enough so I can put this device on top of my desk, so no more getting on my hands and knees to hook up USB.
I wish I could add more but this is a simple device but does all it was designed to do.


Now for you non-technical people that read my reviews-I'm trying to do a review that you can understand. There will be some things I will put in for more technacally inclined. But if there is anything you do not understand or you have a question. Leave it in comments and I will try real hard to explain or answer. If I have done it how about telling me that also.
