Embedded Rugged SuperSpeed 4-Port USB 3.1 Hub with Battery Charging Downstream Ports for OEM Applications

Description

This 4-port embedded hub for OEM applications features robust ESD protections and is USB 3.1 compliant and backward compatible. The HUB4SSBA-OEM is designed to meet the advanced requirements for connecting multiple USB peripherals in extreme environments while achieving SuperSpeed operation.

Redefining Rugged

The Embedded Rugged SuperSpeed USB 3.1 Hub checks every box for industrial use:

  • USB 3.1 compliant, providing up to 5 Gb/s data rate to the host
  • -40°C to +85°C operating temperature
  • Individual port power management
  • 15kV ESD protections on USB 3.0 data lines
  • 8kV ESD protections on USB 2.0 data lines
  • Up to 1500mA available on all ports simultaneously
  • Comprehensive input power protections (reverse polarity, voltage surge, overcurrent, under-voltage, over-voltage)
  • Wide operating voltage range (9V-30V)
  • Multiple Transaction Translator (MTT) design prevents data rate bottlenecks when legacy USB devices are attached

Charging Downstream Ports

The HUB4SSBA-OEM ships with port 4 configured as a Charging Downstream Port (CDP) capable of supplying up to 2.4A of current to a connected device. The remaining three CDPs supply up to 1500 mA to each connected device. All CDPs are USB Battery Charging Specification BCv1.2 compliant, ideal for charging batteries or powering high-current USB peripherals. The Multiple Transaction Translator (MTT) design prevents speed limitations, enabling multiple high bandwidth devices to operate at SuperSpeed.

Each downstream port has a Bi-Color Status LED that indicates two types of connections:

  • USB 3.1/3.0 connection to the host will cause the LED to illuminate GREEN
  • USB 2.0/1.1/1.0 connection to the host with cause the LED to illuminate YELLOW

Easy Installation & Use

Fully Supported in Microsoft Windows 8/10, and backward compatible with Microsoft Windows XP/7, and other USB-aware operating systems. The hub requires no separate drivers and is easy to install.
