Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. What is the power output on the data only ports? need 2A for my hard drives...

A: 3 x USB 3.1 / USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A (2.4 A)

Q: 2. Will this work well on iMac 2019 and can I hookup Time Machine backup USB drive?

A: Yes, this hub is compatible and will work with an external, bus powered storage volume.

Q: 3. I know this has been asked in a different form, but I just need to make sure. I intend to connect this to a laptop that will be sleeping 99% of the time when not in use, and then plug it in a power conditioner that I switch off when not in use. My question is if this hub will 'disconnect' from the laptop when powered off, and will not transmit buss power from the sleeping laptop, effectively keeping things like an SSD drive or buss powered midi keyboard ON? To be clear, I want this disconnect to happen. Hope this made sense. Thanks!

A: Yes, when the host computer would sleep the access to the powered device is cut. Due to the device needing to be accessed to start its function.

Q: 4. Maybe a crazy question, but can I use this as a duplicator and if so, how many can I record to at one time?

A: The Xcellon 7-Port Powered USB 3.0 Slim Aluminum Hub with 2 Dual Data/Charging Ports BH #XCSH75H2HC2 won't work as a duplicator standalone or include duplication software.You can connect it to your computer and use it for anything you wish as long as it involves connecting USB devices.

Q: 5. Will this plug into my 2022 Mac laptop, which does not have the old USB ports?

A: Yes, the Xcellon 4-Port Powered USB 3.0 Slim Aluminum Hub with 1 Dual Data/Charging Port BH #XCSH43H1HC2 comes with 2 cables, one of them is USB C the other is USB A for older devices.

Q: 6. USB 2.0 backward compatible?

A: Yes, this would be USB 2.0 compatible

Q: 7. Will it handle two (2) self powered USB Laser Printers, and 1 external Backup Drive as the sum total of the peripheral load?

A: I doubt it. It fried my external drive after a week, it would unmount while files were being transferred. After the 4th or 5th time it happened the drive died. Have not been able to get the drive to work since. I returned the hub. i wouldnt plug anything into this hub unless you can afford to lose it.

Q: 8. Will this hub work on European currency with a plug adaptor?

A: Yes, the rating of the power supply included with the Xcellon 10-Port Powered USB 3.0 Slim Aluminum Hub is 100 to 240 VAC, 50 / 60 Hz at 1.5 A.

Q: 9. Would all the ports power a bus powered audio interface, or only the charging port? And would it still power the interface without the computer connected?

A: It would depend on how much power your audio interface consumes. The red port can provide up to 2.4a of power. The hub does not have to be connected to the wall for power. However, the devices you connect may or may not be power by the hub.

Q: 10. are the ports switchable on/off, or do the leds just indicate a device is present?

A: No, the ports on the Xcellon 10-Port Powered USB 3.0 Slim Aluminum Hub with 3 Dual Data/Charging Ports BH #XCSH107H3HC2 are not switchable. They just indicate a device is connected.

[Steel] Now I need something to manage all of the 10+ cables that are going into this thing... 5

[Black] When working with multiple PCs, a KVM moves from a nice-to-have to an essential piece of equipment. This KVM packs an incredible amount of ports and functionality into a very compact size. I used to have it out front where I could reach the (Switching) button, but once I got used to the hot-key switching, it’s now hidden in behind the machines, keeping my work area clean and uncluttered with cables. The resolution on the monitors is excellent and response time to switch back and forth is fast and smooth. Setup was easy once I planned where all my cables were going, and I recommend tightening all the screws for the DVI cables to the back of the KVM as you attach them. Trying to do so afterwards can be very tricky! I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review 5

[2.6 lb] There is a lot packed into this box. It delivers great resolution and audio with push button connectivity. As always StarTech makes sure you have the right connection for your power source. This product does not include all of the connection cables so you just can just purchase what ever lengths you need. 5

[Steel] I bought this years ago and it is Very user friendly and simple to install and very effective too.Will highly recommend it to all. 5

AlanJ	01/09/2024
[CE, FCC, RoHS] I have had this product for nearly 3 years - simple to set up, switches between Mac & PC with two 2560x1440 displays and logitech wireless mouse / keyboard. Super easy to use - couldn't have hoped for a more trouble-free better product. 5

[Black] Make sure to actually use the usb output that matches the computer your are testing your mouse+keyboard with. I had the keyboard+mouse not working like some mentioned in other comments/reviews. I contacted the support team which helped me make it work correctly. It's silly but we never know what would have with lack of coffee :) . 5

SawTech	27/08/2024
[2.6 lb] Superb bit of kit, Typical Scenario, two tower servers, one tower style UPS. two LT06 tape drives. Virtually no space for one monitor keyboard and mouse, let alone two. Solution = This little baby, connect all the cables (You supply these) but it is as easy as 1 2 3. plug in the mains a wow instant push the select button to trigger what server is required. 5

[Steel] If you know what you are doing, it is easy to set up and operate. Used this model for nearly a year. No issues. 5

[0 ~ 80% RH] Had previous experience with a dual port DVI and VGA StarTech KVM and this one is just as good. Yes, the hot keys don't work with a wireless keyboard but I suspect that is more a function of the keyboard driver than the KVM switch, since the last unit I had also had a wireless keyboard and mouse and was flawless in its operations. It would be nice if the DVI connectors were just a smidgen (metric) further apart from one another, but these are minor issues that have nothing to do with the quality or the operation of the unit itself. I love the fact that this is a metal housing; makes it stay put and feels high quality. 5

[Steel] So far so good. We have this installed with 4 of our computers and use this to manage 8 inputs in our virtual studio. Very happy to have this all be managed with one mouse and keyboard! 5
