StarTech.com 5G4AINDRM-USB-A-HUB USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface hub

Connect and manage up to four USB Type-A devices, using this USB hub - Designed for industrial/commercial environments

This 4-port managed industrial USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) hub allows users to enable/disable individual USB ports and reset the hub, using the USB Hub Administrator software (available as a free download). With a rugged housing and versatile power input options, the USB hub is designed to meet the needs of IT professionals working in industrial environments such as factories, warehouses, offices, and other similar settings.

Managed USB Hub

The USB Hub Administrator software must be installed on the host computer, which allows users to remotely control device access and manage operational functions. With this software, users can:

- Enable or disable individual ports or all ports on the USB hub.

- Reset the USB hub.

- Set a password to restrict unauthorized access.

- Save port states for quick configuration in specific applications.

- Use command-line interface (CLI) commands for command-line operation or custom application development.

The software is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux, making it versatile across various platforms. It supports an unlimited number of managed USB hubs, allowing users to connect multiple hubs to a single host computer or daisy-chain them in sequence.

Rugged and Reliable

The industrial USB hub features a rugged, high-strength metal housing designed to protect the hub from potential damage caused by accidental drops or sudden impacts. It also protects against electrostatic discharge (ESD) with Level 4 ESD protection of 15kV air and 8kV contact. This rugged construction ensures resilience in demanding industrial environments, providing peace of mind to users in situations where durability and reliability are paramount.

Power Flexibility

The USB hub offers power flexibility to meet diverse user needs. It features a power input terminal block that supports a wide voltage range of +7 to 48 volts DC, ensuring compatibility with various power sources. With an external power supply connected, the USB hub is compliant with the USB Battery Charging Specification 1.2, supplying up to 1.5A (7.5W) on 3 of the downstream ports, so you can quickly power and charge external devices.

An external power supply is required for optimal performance. StarTech.com offers an external power adapter (part number: ITB20D3250, sold separately) that will allow the USB hub to operate at peak performance.

Mounting Options

The USB hub is thoughtfully designed for user convenience and adaptability. Equipped with integrated mounting brackets, installation is simplified. The hub can be mounted on various surfaces, such as walls or desks. The DIN rail support ensures secure mounting in industrial environments.

High Performance

The rugged USB hub supports SuperSpeed USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) and maintains backward compatibility with legacy peripheral devices. Furthermore, the USB hub offers increased security thanks to the USB Event Monitor utility, a feature of StarTech.com's Connectivity Tools application. This utility logs and timestamps USB port usage, allowing IT administrators to identify potentially malicious devices.
