connectors are fully
reversible-plug connectors
for USB devices and USB
cabling.
This 2-pin (one pin for
positive voltage and the
other pin is GND) terminal
block connector is used to

self-power the hub; the
voltage can be in the range
from +7V to 24VDC.

Hardware Installation
1.
Use static electricity discharge precautions
. Remove possible static
discharge potential from any objects that the hub may come in contact with
before installation. This can be accomplished by touching a bare metal
chassis rail after you have turned off the power.
2.
Apply DC power (range from +7V to 48V) to the 2-pin Terminal Block
Connector
. The hub is bus powered by the upstream USB port (USB-C
connector), This terminal block connector is to add power to ensure enough
power for the 7 downstream ports..

Connecting USB Host cables:
The host cable could be either a standard A-to-
B USB 3.0 cable or an optional A-to-B USB 3.0 screw-lock cable. Please
