Hubs play a key role in the Plug-and-Play architecture of the Universal Serial Bus (USB). The new Belkin ExpressBus hub allows simultaneous operation of up to four separate devices all attached to a single USB port. And with the option of daisy chaining hubs, USB can actually connect up to 127 different devices at once! The ExpressBus is truly Plug-and-Play. That means all of your devices will be detected and configured as soon as they are connected. The hub also allows you to "hot attach/detach" devices, giving you the flexibility of adding or removing devices at any time, without having to power down or reboot your system. The ExpressBus is either self-powered or bus-powered, an important option when using multiple hubs or power hungry USB devices. The 4-Port Macintosh version is shipped with 5 colored sleeves to match the color of your iMac or Macintosh computer. |
