💻 StarTech.com 10 Port USB Hub with Power Adapter - Surge Protection - Metal Industrial USB 3.0 Data Transfer Hub - Flexible Mounting Options - High Speed USB 3.1 Gen 1 5Gbps Hub (HB30A10AME) Review

I have always been satisfied with all Star Tech devices. They are well built, usually in metal cases rather than cheap plastic. Your customer service has always been top notch for me. For my purposes, I like an outlet that allows a different power source than the wall wart. I have a large 12 volt power supply that I am sending over there. A bit expensive but quality is not cheap.

Attention! When connected to a powered USB host, this hub will return 5V from the host to the 7-24V DC jack when no power is available. That is, if your DC power supply is off but the PC is still on, 5V will be supplied to whatever is connected to your DC power supply. For an "industrial" hub this is quite a disadvantage as you cannot power your system by turning off the 24VDC power supply and if there are high enough loads connected to your DC power supply the USB port will shut down your PC.

Great hub, everything I've plugged in works fine. Just a warning, don't be surprised if you find four (4) power supply cords with different plugs in the box: USA (Type B), UK (Type G, 3-pin), Australia (Type I, 2-pin), Europe (Type C), 2 contacts). Obviously all the extra staff is included in the price.

I replaced a broken Anker 7 port hub with this one. I've had this StarTech for a few months now and it's flawless. Never pause or slow down the writing speed on discs. There are no dropped devices. Just perfect. I highly recommend this device. This is quite a large device and if you're looking for the prettiest device then this might not be for you. If you don't mind it looking "industrial" and want something that just works and works, this model is for you.
