Public” (Florida) – See all my reviews This review is from: Plugable USB 2.0 10 Port Hub (with Power Adapter) I must say, I have two of these USB Hubs by Plugable. I liked the first one so much I got another. I have been through 5 hubs this year trying to find one that will power my external hard drive and charge my iPhone. It doesn’t sound like too much to ask. Well, I finally found what I was looking for in this USB hub. First the Fit and Finish. Everything looks good on this hub. From the piano black finish to the tasteful, blue, glowing bar and sweet blue light coming out of the ports. It’s just enough light to let you find the ports in the dark. There are 8 fixed ports on this hub and two ports that swivel out. There are 6 fixed ports on one side and 4 ports on the other. The side with 4 has the two swivel ports. From the logo and text printed on the unit, the swivel side is the top and the 6 come out the bottom. I have turned mine vertical and the ports come out the sides. The swivel ports are SO HANDY! I like the fact they put all the ports on just two sides. I dislike the hubs that have ports on 4 sides. Two sides is handy, four is crazy because you have cables coming out of all sides. All the ports are usable on this hub. I mounted one unit to the wall behind my laptop in my shop. Some 3M Scotch 4010 Heavy Duty Clear Mounting Tape worked well. The other unit is mounted, using the same tape, by my desktop computer in the house.3M Scotch 4010 Heavy Duty Clear Mounting Tape All in all, I appreciate that this USB hub just works. If you need more power and more ports, this is it. I have been looking at USB hubs since they came out with USB 1. I know quality when I see it and I really like the quality of this USB hub.

This review is from: Plugable USB 2.0 10 Port Hub (with Power Adapter) I got two of these to have 20 ports on a small linux server into a Cisco console server. This works perfectly with some USB-serial adapters I got from another site and does not even require the external power supply. I am really happy with these so far. Easy to use, small and compact, black finish helps them hide on my rack. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you? >Report abuse | Permalink Comment
