Vention USB-B to USB 3.0×7 Hub with Individual Power Switches and DC 5.5mm Power Adapter (CHXB0-EU) – Switch Each Device On and Off Without Unplugging
The Vention USB-B to USB 3.0×7 Hub with Individual Power Switches and DC 5.5mm Power Adapter (CHXB0-EU) is a powered 7-port USB 3.0 hub that connects to a computer through a USB 3.0 Type-B input and the included 1m USB 3.0 A-to-B cable. Its key feature is an individual on/off switch beside each port, so you can cut power to one device, such as a phone being flashed, a scanner or an external drive, while the other six keep running. As a result, there is no need to pull cables in and out, which reduces wear on ports and connectors. Each port transfers data at up to 5Gbps, and the bundled 12V/2A DC adapter with a 5.5mm barrel plug powers the hub directly instead of drawing everything from the PC.
For a tidy desk, the ABS and PC housing measures 152 x 45.4 x 19.8mm, which fits beside a monitor or under a shelf. Meanwhile, because the hub has its own power, external hard drives and multiple devices run steadily together. However, the 24W adapter shares its power across all seven ports, so treat it as a data and steady-power hub rather than a fast charger. Consequently, a phone technician on Luthuli Avenue testing several handsets or a music producer in Kileleshwa running controllers and audio gear can manage every device from one switch panel.
