STARTECH 4 Port USB A Male to Female Active Extension Hub, Black - 3.0 10m

Extend your USB connectivity with the STARTECH 4 Port USB A Male to Female Active Extension Hub. This innovative active hub is designed to overcome the distance limitations of standard USB cables, providing reliable, high-speed connections for up to four USB 3.0 devices simultaneously over distances where passive cables fail. Its clever active design ensures signal integrity, delivering USB 3.0 super-speed data transfer rates of up to 5 Gbps without significant loss, making it ideal for demanding professional and home office setups.

A significant advantage of this hub is its self-powered capability for most devices, eliminating the need for an external power supply in standard use and simplifying your workspace. For peripherals with higher power demands, a versatile 5V/4A multi-head AC adaptor is included, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of equipment. The hub also features robust built-in safeguards, including Level 2 ESD protection (4kV air, 4kV contact) and cable shielding to minimise electromagnetic interference (EMI), guaranteeing a stable and reliable connection for all your critical devices.

Flexibility is at the core of its design. The hub supports daisy-chaining, allowing you to connect a second compatible extender to achieve a total extension range of up to 20 metres. This feature is perfect for complex installations in server rooms, studios, or conference centres. The unit is truly plug-and-play, requiring no additional drivers or software for operation on most major operating systems, and it supports useful functions like wake-on-USB to resume devices from sleep mode.

Housed in a durable black casing, this extension hub is a robust and practical solution. It comes complete with the extension cable, the international multi-head AC adaptor (with UK type G, Euro type C, US type A, and AUS type I plugs), and a user guide, providing everything needed for a global, out-of-the-box setup.
