D-Link USB 2.0 7 Ports Hub DUB-H7

This little USB HUB is absolutely tiny however you can see from the construction of the case and the way it's packaged that it's a higher quality unit. It features 3 standard USB ports and one that is for charging. To use the charging port to its full potential you have to plug it into the wall with the included 5V adapter. The unit shows you whether the HUB is using power from the USB connection or Power through an LED on the top. Good points about this item: - Looks fantastic and the size enables it to be used in multiple scenarios. - The ports all worked and were plug and play on Linux (Debian more specifically) and Windows 8.1 - The charging port is quicker than the standard USB port for charging my phone. - The cables provided are of a high quality - Doesn't require power to run the main 3 USB ports. Bad points: - The power adapter is pretty chunky. - The case is a fingerprint and dust magnet. Overall this little USB hub is great and doesn't look god awful (in my opinion) like some of the others available. Would certainly recommend this to anyone looking for a HUB and it's verified for the Raspberry Pi as well so it can offer you more USB ports plug and play on that device. 5/5

I bought this hub for a slightly unusual reason. I needed to connect two long USB 2.0 cables (over 8 Metres in total) to go from my PC upstairs to a freeview recorder box downstairs. You definitely need additional power for this long a cable run so I decided to buy a powered ('active') USB hub to join the cables. It has done the job really well. It comes with a PSU so I was up and running straight away. I've never had a dropped connection and performance seems very good. LED indicator lights show activity and status on each port. It's very neat and compact for a hub - it doesn't take up much desk space and looks nice next to my aluminium PC case. It comes with a quite long USB 2.0 cable to connect it to the PC. It was recognised straight away by Windows XP and 2000 without any messing about. It works fine in its more traditional role of connecting multiple USB devices to a single port on my PC. I don't bother using its separate PSU for this task and it works fine without it. All in all, very happy. Even though it's perhaps relatively expensive for a 4 port USB 2.0 hub, I think it's worth it.

Had to get this unit replaced as it failed to recognise devices that were attached to it via USB, apparently something to do with the IOS version I was using, anyway received a replacement from manufacturer and they had updated the software and I have had no issues - D-Link stuff is reliable and well built, recommeded! Included two charging USB ports very handy for all the portable devices!

Item was sent with an EU plug, not a UK plug. The hub uses a USB-B port with a USB-A plug, not the USB-C connection shown in the pictures. The item does not have a blue LED on top despite the picture showing one. Item appeared to have genuine box but I assume it’s a fake product due to the numerous inaccurate descriptions.

Very nice piece of kit.I bought one to replace a cheap ugly thing that looked unnaceptably naff next to my new PC and also didn't work particularly well.OK so its a hub and its hard to get very excited but it seems well built with a bit more substance than some in this price range.Dead easy to set up,so far it has worked very well & its nice looking & compact enough to sit on my desk & look extremely businesslike.Personally I like the compact chunkiness of it plus its great value and it works.What more can you ask of it ?

I've had cheaper USB hubs, but this one is much better than any so far. Firstly, its powered (it needs a power socket), but this means it can deal with power-hungry devices like external USB hard drives, without overloading. You don't have to have the power on for low-power devices like memory sticks. Secondly its robust - it doesn't fall of the desk all the timen and its got little rubber feet so it doesn't slip about. Its got a full set of indicator lights. OK, its nothing to get that excited about but it does the job with no problems. I'd buy it again, and that's recommendation enough I think.

I can't really write a review on the hub pictured (sleek looking piano black one), because I was sent a different looking hub (ugly silver/grey thing)! I was a bit miffed because it is too go under my TV as part of media centre, and aesthetically the one I was actually sent looks awful! It performs well enough (powering wireless keyboard, wifi dongle) with my raspberry pi though...

I bought this hub to allow me to allow me to extend the distance between computer and my Midi Keyboard controllers (USB bus powered). First off the size of this is amazing (6x6cm 2cm high) so it's tiny and the PSU has a decent length of cable, PC BIOS & Windows 8 Pro immediately saw this hub and configured it with no extra drivers required. Another bonus is I've seen no issues of cross talking which can happen when using multiple USB Midi devices connected through the same hub.

Cambie el anterior que pedí pues no tengo puertos tipo C. Este tiene 7 puertos USB clásicos y funciona rápido y sin ningún fallo. Tengo conectados: impresora, altavoces, 2 HD externos, un lector de DVD y un USB y funcionan todos simultáneamente sin fallar. Excelente artículo. Tamaño reducido

Utilizado para alimentar una Raspberry Pi 2 y a la vez como hub para leer dos discos duros portatiles, uno USB 2.0 de 500GB y otro USB 3.0 de 2TB. La PI no se debe conectar en el puerto de carga rápida, sino no funciona. El transformador traia enchufe europeo. Los materiales y el tamaño son correctos. Como peros pondría su precio, un poco alto, y que sería muy util el que viniera con un interruptor de apagado como algún otro USB HUB. A falta de comprobar su fiabilidad, el tiempo nos dará la respuesta.

Il existe déjà une multitude de hubs USB faisant leur travail correctement. En quoi ce hub 7 ports USB 2.0 de D-Link surpasse les autres modèles ? En plus de proposer pas moins de 7 ports USB 2.0, ce D-Link DUB-H7 amplifie la puissance des 2 derniers ports pour réduire le temps de recharge de vos périphériques. Robuste et au look plutôt agréable : il est assez compact (10 x 5,7 x 2,3cm) pour un poids léger de 85g. Il est mignon et se fera discret sur votre bureau ou dans votre sac de transport. Le câble USB 2.0 fourni est assez long : plus besoin d'une rallonge USB pour poser le hub sur votre bureau éloigné de votre ordinateur. Le bloc d'alimentation est assez volumineux. Tenez en compte pour vos prises et vos multiprises (il peut gêner l'accès des prises d'à côté). Sur ce hub D-LINK DUB-H7 vous pouvez connecter tous vos appareils à la norme USB 2.0. Les périphériques USB 3.0 y fonctionneront (rétrocompatibilité) mais leurs débits seront limités à la norme USB 2.0. Les ports USB sont bien espacés les uns des autres contrairement aux ports USB d'un ordinateur portable ou de la majorité de ceux des unités centrales. Il y a peu de chance de gêner les ports USB adjacents. En utilisation, ce hub est tout à fait convainquant. Pas besoin d'alimentation pour des périphériques peu nombreux ou peu gourmands. Comme prévu, dès que le besoin en énergie se fait sentir, l'alimentation externe devient obligatoire. Pas besoin de pilote, ce hub est automatiquement reconnu sous Windows 7 64 bits. Il est compatible PC, Mac et Linux. On peut mettre en cascade jusqu'à 5 hubs (longueur du câble les reliant jusqu'à 5m) pour un total de 127 périphériques maximum (norme USB). Il est compatible avec les normes OHCI (Open Host Controller Interface) et EHCI (Enhanced Host Controller Interface). Une application Windows "D-Link Ipad Charger" téléchargeable sur le site dlink.com permet de recharger et synchroniser simultanément les tablettes de marque Apple. En effet, d'habitude lorsque l'Ipad est raccordé à un ordinateur, vous pouvez soit le recharger soit le synchroniser mais pas les 2 à la fois. Plus besoin du chargeur propriétaire pour accomplir ces 2 tâches en même temps. SMART CHARGE Le point fort de ce hub est que 2 ports USB proposent la fonction "Smart Charge" qui apporte plus de puissance pour recharger des périphériques (téléphone portables, Smartphones, etc.) plus rapidement. On a ENFIN un temps de recharge réduit et similaire à un chargeur officiel (testé et confirmé avec ma tablette Google Nexus 7). De plus, il n'est plus nécessaire d'encombrer ses multiprises avec 2 adaptateurs pour recharger quotidiennement son téléphone : ce hub s'en charge avec succès. En mode standard (hub connecté à votre ordinateur) : Les 7 ports délivrent 0,5A. La douce diode s'affiche en bleu. En mode Smart Charge (hub déconnecté mais alimenté via le secteur) : Les 5 premiers ports délivrent toujours 0,5A mais les deux derniers augmentent à 1,2A. La Led changeant de couleur pour du vert annonce la charge rapide sur ces 2 ports. J'ai testé un boitier disque dur externe, quelques clés USB, plusieurs disques durs (dont un Intenso Memory Station 500 Go assez énergivore), une souris, un clavier et un lecteur de carte 7-1 : aucun décrochage et aucune perte de puissance. Le D-Link DUB-H7 est un excellent hub de qualité autant par son design que par ses atouts techniques. On devient vite accroc aux 2 ports de recharge qui nous font l'économie de deux adaptateurs secteurs USB universels et de plusieurs heures de charge comparées à une liaison sur un PC. Un achat indispensable. Dommage qu'il ne soit pas à la norme USB 3.0.

Over the past month with using this USB hub, I have no issues with it whatsoever. I usually have a cooling mat, wireless keyboard, wireless mouse, and an external hooked up to it at all times and have no trouble with lack of power. Nice little hub, and I am kind of a person who does not mind the bright LCD lights on the front, I actually kinda like it. This was well worth it.

4 puertos USB con alimentación de poder, dos de ellos con carga rápida. En la ciudad de México difícilmente se consiguen y sobretodo a un precio razonable. Buena marca, buen producto. Llevo ya con el un par de años y cumple su función sin problemas.
