Lindy 42794 USB 2.0 hub, 7 ports, metal housing

The Lindy 42794 is a seven-port USB 2.0 hub in a metal housing that adds seven USB ports to a computer. Lindy designed it as a robust option that also suits industrial use, where a plastic case may not hold up for long.

  • Ports: 7 × USB 2.0
  • Standard: USB 2.0, up to 480 Mbps
  • Housing: metal, black
  • Size and weight: 165 × 53.5 × 22 mm, 251 g

Description

A metal housing built for daily use

The metal housing is tougher than a typical plastic hub, and at 251 g it stays put on the desk while you plug and unplug cables. USB 2.0 speed is plenty for a keyboard, mouse, printer, scanner, flash drive and the many measuring and control devices that do not need a faster link. Seven ports in one place mean every device can be connected at the same time.

Who this USB hub is for

Workshops, labs and production lines where a computer runs many USB 2.0 devices and the housing has to be durable; offices where a printer, scanner and other accessories hang off one computer; and anyone who needs more USB ports than the computer has.

Questions & answers

Is the hub suitable for an external SSD?

It works, but USB 2.0 limits the speed to 480 Mbps. For fast external drives a USB 3.0 hub is the better fit.

Can I connect it to a computer with USB 3.0 ports?

Yes, USB 3.0 ports are compatible with USB 2.0 devices. The hub then runs at USB 2.0 speed.

Does the hub have its own power adapter?

The manufacturer does not specify whether a power adapter is included or how the hub is powered.
