10-Port USB 2.0 Hub with External Power Source (100~240V AC Adapter)

Pros: - Price. I think sonething that crazy will cost 4x as mouch at local stores if they would have something like this, which they don't have :) - It's USB 2.0! The Logitech G15 keyboard I borrowed from a dude had only 2 USB ports, and they were USB 1.0, and couldn't even power my wired 360 controller! This hub can power it plus a lot more! - Fancy blue light that lights up when something is plugged in. - It has that fancy tear-off plastic that protects it from scratches. I see that stuff on laptops, LCD monitors, DVD players, but this is the first time I see that on something from DX. - Screw holes on the back side for wall mounting. Genious! - Comes with an external power adapter which you need if you use 10 power hungry devices at the same time.

Cons: The power adapter has a US plug, so I need to get a US to European adapter. You can find this easly on DX.

Other: If you have too few ports with this, then you have special needs :) I bought this cause I were low on USB ports on my PC, and I have an old case without USB ports in the front. This one suits perfectly, and I have it mounted to the wall right next to the case.

Pros: Exelent shape and intuitive use. Blue ligthsin each port inform about function of the USB, if you plug a fan or someting that just use voltaje ligths don´t turn on. It came with AC power and USB cable to computer with filter (thats really good). One of the port (#10) come from the side of it, thats really usefull too

Cons: Construction plastic could be less glossy. It´s a joke, this is an excelent product for this price! Wish it came with Argentina plug type, but its ok y habe adapter.

Other: Nothing more to add. Fast Shipping

Pros: Quality/price relation is good. As pointed out in the specs, it's USB 2.0. Acceptable build quality in shiny black plastic. Able to supply power to at least one 2.5" external HDD (sorry, not tested with more than one). Good separation between USB sockets (1 cm.). Suitable for wall mounting with two screws.

Cons: Power cable is a bit too shorter, 1 meter approx.

Other: It's a very good purchase.

Pros: *Works well. *Leds indicating witch port is in use. *Ten ports.(wOOt) *External power. *Nice finish. *Holes in the back to hang it up on a wall. *cheaper than anywhere else

Cons: Can't think of any, it works well.. Oh, well.. The led's are kinda bright.. dunno if that's a con though..

Other: If you need a usb2.0 hub, just buy this one, because it has alot of ports and it looks good.

Pros: easy to set up. plug it in the pc, plug it in to the mains and you are good to go. 10 ports... more than enough for me, i've tested and all 10 ports work at the same time. it has holes on the back so you can hang it on the wall, desk, etc...

Cons: it doesnt come with a European plug, so you will need to get http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.3529 aswell to be albe to get it to work in europe

Other: good product, good price.

Pros: Cheap Good build Quality 10- Ports (internal 1x7PrtHUB & 1x4PrtHUB) perfect for your desktop Searced the web long for this kind of HUB

Cons: It has a 5V 2A Powersuply it should have a 5V 4.5A / 5A Powersuply to fit the specifikations of USB (per port 500mA) but the PSU has a comon plug so it isn´t this hard to find a replace if you realy need the power. For now i am happy with the boxed PSU.

Other: But This Hub has recend space between the ports so that it is no problem with bigger thumbdrives AND one port is in front so you can use this for special purpose. All in All a recomned great deal. Buy it, hold it, love it ;-)

Pros: Ten ports. Ten-frelling-ports.

Cons: Had a major issue with my 64-bit Windows7 main machine, making it useless on that machine, at least at the moment.

Other: Not sure if the issue is 64-bit Windows7 or some conflict between the Belkin and 10-port, but until I have more time to play around with it, this hub is sitting forlorn on the shelf. This is a working machine, and I'd rather have nested hubs and wire clutter than have intermittent device failures across the bus.

Pros: 10 ports, how awesome can you get
can't beat the price
pretty solid build
works really well, once fixed

Cons: the film on the top with the logos on is kind of loose
the number 10 port is on the back, which is kind of weird
as said in numerous comments on similar hubs, AND THIS IS IMPORTANT! a diode was replaced with a 0 Ohm resistor, which allows current to be fed back into your pc/laptop/... and potentially fry parts of or your entire motherboard
however it can easily be fixed, you just open the case, and remove the resistor at D0, it's close to the power input, the little black rectangle with 0OJ on it, this can be done by just touching the solders on the resistor with a soldering iron, it'll come loose pretty easily
This however means that you will not be able to use it without the AC adapter, since the device can no longer be powered through USB, in short, you can leave the resistor and use it without the AC adapter or you can remove the resistor and use it with the AC adapter, but you cannot safely do both.

Other: Once fixed, it's a good value and damn useful piece of computer hardware.

Pros: This hub is nice because of the 10 ports which are well spaced and then the power adapter which can be used to supply extra needed power (it does work without the adapter). The LED by each port are an added convenience and in pleasant blue. The spacing of the ports is ample, so it is easy to connect and dsiconnect cables.

Cons: The biggest CON of this device is the fact that the USB ports are installed upside down. If you use the hub in a normal way (with the port numbers being from 1-10 and not upside down) when you install items like rhumb drives, portable card readers, etc. you do not see the fronts of the units and this status LEDs on them. Also, you have to remember to install connectors reversed. It is not possible to change the cover and flip it arount. Another meaningful CON to me is the fact that the USB ports seem to be too shallow and connectors only go in 2/3 of the way. The plastic used dfor these is not of the highest quality (shiny black) and then the top/faceplate sticker was coming off before I even used the unit.

Other: This hub could be almost perfect, but then certain things would have to be re-worked. It is still useful due to its small size and 10 port capacity.

Pros: You get 10 USB ports for under $15. I also love the design. It's practical, not some strange, goofy novelty shape. I think the last USB port hidden on the side of the device is a bit odd, but I still love it. It's flat, there's plenty of space between ports, and it even has holes in the back for mounting. This hub also comes complete with a power supply. My computer recognized all devices plugged into the hub instantly. The black and silver color matches my black PC. This hub is extra useful as I have USB rechargeable Wii battery packs, PS3 controllers, and a USB charger for my DS. I can charge nearly all of my electronig goodies with this hub and still have room for computer devices.

Cons: I think the last USB port hidden on the side of the hub is oddly placed. I would have prefered it lined up with the rest of the ports on the hub.

Other: Good hub if you need lots of USB ports. It's also affordable. :)
