What it is / Key Features

• Provides 7× USB 2.0 ports (supports USB 2.0 / 1.1), allowing you to connect up to seven USB devices simultaneously.

• Uses an industrial-grade HUB chip with MTT technology — this helps deliver stable and smooth performance even with multiple devices attached

• Offers robust protective features: ESD protection on each port, over-voltage, over-current, short-circuit, over-temperature, reverse current, under-voltage lock-out and filtering protections. 

• Powered externally: output is 5 V, with up to 1.2 A per port (assuming sufficient power supply). 

• Enclosed in a rugged metal case with mounting holes — this makes it well-suited for industrial or office setups, not just casual home use. 

• Wide OS support (plug & play): compatible with Windows, Linux, macOS. 

When it’s a good fit

• If you need to plug many USB devices (mouse, keyboard, drives, sensors, etc.) to a single PC or embedded system (e.g. a development board / SBC / industrial controller), especially in a workshop, lab or industrial setting.

• When you want stability and protection — metal housing + surge/ESD protection gives better durability than typical consumer-grade USB hubs.

• If you expect heavy usage (multiple devices simultaneously, frequent plugging/unplugging, or higher power draw) — powered hub reduces risk compared to bus-powered hubs.

What to watch out for / limitations

• It’s USB 2.0 only — so data transfer is limited to around 480 Mbps total (shared across ports), much slower than modern USB 3.x hubs.

• Each port is limited to max 1.2 A output — if you connect many power-hungry devices, you need a sufficiently rated external power supply (bundled is 5 V 4 A, but heavier load may need higher). 

• It’s overkill (and potentially bulky) for light home use — the strength of this hub shines in industrial/office or embedded-system contexts, not just charging a smartphone or plugging a couple of accessories.
