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 24V) to the 2-pin Terminal Block
Connector
. The hub is self-powered by this connector.
3.
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
connect the Type-A end connector of the cable to your PC’s host USB 3.0
port, then insert the type-B end connector to this hub. Since the USB hub is
plug-and-play, you don’t have to turn off your host computer when installing
the hub.
4.
Connect the USB Devices to the downstream ports of this hub.

Mount your hub on the wall or DIN RAIL if required.
