If I had my druthers, I would always work on a mini-tower computer with large screens. Its my preference. A full sized mechanical keyboard and a high definition mouse. And I like my toys/tools. My USB drives, external Hard drives and external SSDs for portable storage. Add the webcam, a necessity today and label printers for convenience. What do these all have in common? USB ports. So I like to have a USB switch (or hub) on the desktop. Easily accessible and convenient. But what most of those devices also have in common is that they draw their power from the USB port theyre plug into. So I like my USB switch to have its own power supply. My last USB switch was several years old and it died (No funeral it wanted to be recycled.) I saw this on Amazon and it was the perfect replacement. 7 ports, each can be switched on or off and a 3A power supply. More than enough to power my USB devices that dont have their own power. It has a simple clean layout and its ports are all USB 3.0. A note, if you get one be sure to plug it into a USB 3.0 port on your computer (The USB port should be blue.) If you plug it into a USB 2.0 port (Black port) then the speed of this switch or any faster switch will be limited the the speed of USB 2.0. I know thats an obvious thing but it never hurts to be reminded. The switch takes no time to install, needs no drivers only an available USB 3.0 or better port on your computer and an electric outlet. The computer will recognize it automatically.

Using this device for about 2 weeks, I have been used all 7 ports occasionally and none have failed. I have seen no slow down, and no overheating. This device seems to be working well with no issues I really love the USB-A to USB-C Adapter that I never have to look for or lose. I have been getting on average 170+ transfer speeds is awesome! Being able to toggle on and off each USB port individually is big positive and knowing that they are on and off (with the light) is great. This charged my Ipad and Laptop simultaneously (though admittedly, not quite as fast as original power supplies). I love this device is very compact and powerful and looks pretty cool with my setup. 7 USB ports is perfect for my setup. I recommend this device for anyone that needs a quality hub with many ports, super fast speeds, Needs USB-A or USB-C, dependable (RSHTECH devices work, I have a few and none have failed yet), are affordable and look great.

All of my neon signs have a usb plug on them, with this.. i can have them all plugged in and hung on the same wall!

As I get more and more rechargeable gadgets into the house I need more and more ports to charge them in. Enter this hub! 7 ports to charge everything and it looks so great next to the computer. You can either plug it in with a usb or into a wall socket which I chose to do. This will save me lots of time looking for ports.

Wow! I didnt realize how bad my USB speeds were until I bought this updated hub from RSHTECH. The speed comparisons are below and in the photo. I used the same disk drive for testing using Blackmagic Disk test on my iMac. The photo shows both new and old USB hubs. I like the fact that its smaller with incredibly improved speeds. Each USB port can be individually enabled/disabled. Highly recommend this for a reasonably (low priced) upgrade. A really awesome 7 port USB Hub. NEW USB 3.0 Speeds: Write: 175.7 MB/s Read: 178.6 MB/s OLD USB hub: Write: 39.2 MB/s Read: 39.9 MB/s

This is a well made powered USB hub. I especially like the aluminum housing. It is machined well and it looks and feels like a quality product. No cheap plastic look to it. That was one reason I chose this hub, the other is that it is a powered hub. It comes with its own power adapter to provide power to your USB devices. Note that this is not intended for charging devices, but to provide sufficient bus power to all of your connected devices. If youve ever tried using a non-powered USB hub with a lot of ports, you know things can go sideways if you plug too many devices in--or just a couple of power hungry ones. Being independently powered removes that issue. It also comes with push button power switches for each port. I havent tried them yet but they may be handy for disconnecting things like webcams that you may not want on all of the time. Transfer speeds to my external USB drives are the same as if they were plugged into the PC. Thats about the only way I can test the speeds.

This USB hub functions extremely well with full USB 3.0 data transfer speeds. It has the capability to hard disconnect external hard drives, microphones, cameras, printers, etc with the press of a button. The buttons are soft touch and have a blue LED turning on or off to show which ports are active. Its a great hub. It is optionally powered and it transfers data fast. I am very happy with it and would recommend it to anyone who needs a few more USB 3.0 ports. I am replacing my old USB hub TENDAK USB 3.0 which is not working any more. Very compact given the number of ports on it. This hub is exactly what I am looking for as a solution to sit on my desk. It looks great, built well and still offers great bandwidth. The body of the hub is made of aluminum. The hub comes with its own power supply and an USB B to USB A/C cable. Its rated at 15 Watts (3 Amps 5 Volts). The USB cable is long enough (3.3 Ft) to reach my desktop with a little extra to spare. With it being both USB A and USB C, this lets me use it on both my home PC and my work laptop which is type c mainly. Overall: I like this hub, it does what I want, does it well for the price, looks good on my desk, and gives me control for each port. It has some extra features, like charging at all times, they have a good warranty policy and offer the ability to get free extended warranty. I have used other products from RSHTECH and have like those as well, I have confidence in their products. Cons: I personally dont have any. Im quite happy with it.

I needed something to turn off my flight pedals as they seemed to interfere. I now have all my peripherals hooked up through this and it’s nice to be able to switch them off with the push of a button. The USB cable is unusual so I worry about breaking g it or losing it but that’s a minor gripe.

Works perfectly - does exactly what the blurb said it would. Would buy again.

The Powered USB Hub ABC is a great gadget for those with multiple electronic devices. It provides ample ports to charge and connect different devices at once, making it convenient and efficient. However, I have noticed that if I leave it plugged in for an extended period of time, it tends to stop working and requires me to unplug it and plug it back in. Its a minor inconvenience, but its something to keep in mind. Overall, I think its a useful gadget to have on hand.
