High-quality, professional USB 3.0 Hub

Now there is the legitimate successor to the EX-1177 Exsys Exsys EX-1177 USB Hub (7 Port) incl. PSU black. This (new) 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub provides the same metal housing and the high-quality workmanship and is supplied with a 5V / 6A power supply. That should be sufficient for most application scenarios. In addition, a 350-watt surge protection for each USB port is integrated. Whether that will really help is hard to say, but this damage can not integrate (almost everyone has already seen the "flash" when you plug a USB device into the USB port (primarily in winter when good insulating footwear).

Thus this device is ideally equipped only for use in industry and for the rough everyday office life.

With the USB 3.0 specification, the maximum current was increased to 900 mA. These are provided by the stroke that included power supply per USB port also available.

High technology has its price, this seems whether the üpig dimensioned performance, high-quality finish and the stable and trouble-free function but justified. Cheaper is determined, but better? That one also still be able to mount it on the wall or under the desk, this device once again makes it more personable.

The only complaint is that there are no status messages to occupied / active devices. But that the function limits does not appreciably; would rather a comfort feature.
