SABRENT USB Hub, 7 Ports 36W, Fast Powered Data Hub, USB Docking Station, Multiport Hubs, LEDs On/Of Switch, for PC Laptop MacBook iMac (HB-BUP7)

Usb hub with individual on/off switches Works fine with SIM racing usb equipped plugged into it. The powered hub gives it that extra power needed and takes away the pressure from the pcs power supply. Solid build quality.

Excellent Product And Great Service *****

Bought on a recommendation from a colleague. Thought it looked massive in the picture which is why I didn’t buy earlier but it’s really small/compact. Sturdy. Buttons are great. Also not USB-C which means wireless mouse and keyboard now working perfectly (USB-C is renowned for causing problems for wireless devices). Couldn’t be happier. 10/10 would recommend - as mouse and keyboard work properly now!

I had been using a cheaper hub for drives and sticks but it struggled with spinning hard drives, this hub has the extra power to ensure they run properly. With USB powered external mechanical hard drive they now start up quickly run without any issues, and they run better through this hub that directly plugged into the PC USB socket - start quicker with no seeking and more stability. Only gripes are the buttons for each slot feel a bit soft and you have to be above to clearly see the on/off indicator light.

Great for organising my USB devices. It's really useful to have so many ports and to be able to power down devices that aren't used very often. The power push buttons foe each device are mechanically latching into either the on or off position so it's easy to see at a glance which deices are powered up. It also remembers the last state following a reboot.

Ordered one of these to use with my Amiga Mini, as a powered hub is recommended, and decided to test all the ports on the PC before getting all the wiring in place. I tested each port individually, with them switched off, plugging in the device and watch windows detect it, then switch off. The first peripheral was a USB 8bitdo controller, and only four of the seven ports (those furthest from the power/data connectors) worked. The other three caused windows to display a notification saying the USB port wasn't powerful enough to power the device. The second peripheral was a SanDisk Cruzer Blade 128gb memory stick, and the ports behaved exactly as before. If I'd wanted to only use 4 ports, I'd have ordered a 4 port hub, so I processed a return, and decided to order another one, as this could simply be a faulty unit. The second one arrived this morning (February 4th), and I repeated the tests, using the same peripherals, and again, the four ports furthest from the power/data connectors work, and the nearest three don't have enough power. Both of these peripherals work fine in a different USB hub that's permanently connected to the PC, and when directly plugged in to the PC. I re-read the product description, just to make sure there aren't any power-only ports on this model, and they're all supposed to be data ports (Windows would ignore them if they're data only). So I've now processed a return for the second one. It's disappointing, as the unit itself was an ideal size for where I was planning to place it, the switches on the unit work nicely, and having a detachable data cable is handy should I need to use a longer one. I ordered this as it had over 85% 4* and 5* reviews, but unfortunately these two aren't working properly, so I'll have to look for something else.

I had been using an Anker 7-port hubUSB3.0 (H7928-U3 - no longer available on Amazon) - with a 36 watt supply that it needed to work at all, yet this was power that it seemed to refuse to share with the connected USB peripherals. Hence USB3.0 bus powered HDDs wouldn't work, nor would a USB3 to Ethernet adapter. So after reading a few "best buy" articles I bought this Sabrent hub. It just worked like I had expected the Anker hub to work. I'll look for the Sabrent brand in future. Not worth knocking off a star for, but the only disappointment is that the LEDs to indicate the power switch to each port is on are so dim that they are only visible in a dark room ! But of course with any more light one can just about make out if the switches are pushed down !

Works incredibly well. I currently have 15-ish devices plugged in via USB hubs and suchlike. This does everything you'd expect it to and has worked flawlessly so far. LEDs are bright, the device is relatively heavy and sturdy, and no additional software is needed. I would like to have some mounting mechanism in future versions, but no complaints here whatsoever.

Kunder behöver veta att de inte ska räkna med att få den varan som de har beställt ! Jag beställde en SABRENT USB-hubb version 3.2. Den jag fick var version 3.0 och är en äldre modell som inte jobbar lika fort ! Antingen tror man på att man kan skicka en 3.0 och att kunden inte begriper att den har blivit lurad eller så finns det kanske ingen som är läskunning och vet vad siffrorna betyder.

Ho acquistato questo hub USB principalmente per alimentare alcune strisce LED e delle lampade USB nella mia postazione. Le 7 porte disponibili sono molto comode, soprattutto perché ognuna è dotata di un interruttore ON/OFF indipendente con indicatore LED. Questo mi permette di accendere e spegnere le luci senza dover scollegare fisicamente i cavi ogni volta: una comodità enorme, soprattutto se si vuole mantenere ordine sulla scrivania. Il trasferimento dati non è stata la mia priorità in questo caso, ma ho fatto qualche test e la velocità con USB 3.2 è davvero ottima. Nessun problema di connessione o di riconoscimento dei dispositivi, funziona perfettamente fin da subito. Anche la compatibilità è eccellente: ho provato anche a collegare un paio di altri accessori (chiavette USB e una tastiera) e tutto ha funzionato senza intoppi. Il cavo di alimentazione esterna incluso è fondamentale: garantisce la potenza necessaria anche per dispositivi che consumano di più, come le luci che sto usando. In sintesi, un prodotto davvero valido, pratico e funzionale. Se avete bisogno di un hub per alimentare o gestire più periferiche USB contemporaneamente, è un acquisto consigliatissimo.

It does what a powered usb hub is supposed to do. Quality is very good.

Este hub de Sabrent ha superado todas mis expectativas, sobre todo por cómo funciona con discos externos y periféricos conectados a mi Mac. Lo he usado con varios dispositivos a la vez (SSD rápido, HDD de gran capacidad, Ethernet y otros periféricos) y funciona de forma impecable: ✅ Muy estable — nunca se desconecta ✅ Alimentación suficiente para todos los puertos ✅ Sin fallos de señal ni microcortes ✅ Compatible con USB 3.0 / 5Gbps real ✅ Funciona incluso con cables largos y adaptadores ✅ Reconoce discos, red y periféricos sin pelearme con drivers Conecté el Crucial X8 SSD y el LaCie HDD al mismo tiempo, junto con adaptadores y cables activos, y no hubo nunca caída de velocidad ni errores. Además, con el hub alimentado los discos mantienen buena alimentación y no pasan por limitación del portátil. La calidad de construcción es sólida, los puertos no bailan, todo encaja bien y no he tenido nada de calor o comportamiento raro. Por el precio y la versatilidad que tiene, es una compra totalmente recomendada si necesitas ampliar puertos y trabajar con discos externos o múltiples periféricos a la vez. En mi caso, ha sido una pieza clave para un setup de edición de vídeo doméstico, y funciona sin pestañear.

Just couldn’t find any of my devices when connected with blue blinking LEDs. Tried swapping power supplies as well. Too bad. I wanted this to work.
