INTRODUCTION
Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Belkin Hi-Speed USB
2.0 4-Port Hub (the Hub). The Hub provides four downstream USB ports
that offer backward-compatible, Plug-and-Play connectivity with all USB
devices, including USB 1.1 (or low- and full-speed) devices, as well as
with USB 2.0 (or high-speed) devices. This includes such peripherals as
scanners, printers, mass-storage devices, and high-resolution cameras.
The Hub is self-powered, which allows the cascading of devices with
additional hubs, so that up to 127 USB devices may be connected to a
single port.
The Hub is uniquely designed to allow the user to position the four
downstream ports toward the back of the desktop for efficient cable
management, or to the front of the desktop for easier port access. The
Hub also provides a status LED for each individual port and a master
power LED.

INSTALLATION
Important Note: Please do not connect any USB devices to the Hub until
instructed to do so in step 4 of this installation
procedure.
1. Plug the AC adapter into a wall outlet, or surge suppressor. Plug the
DC connector into the DC Power Jack found on the side of the Hub.
Important Note: The Hub may be used without the power supply when
connecting devices that draw 100mA of current or less,
however, only port 1 and port 2 will be functional.
2. Plug the flat end of the provided USB device cable into the
downstream port of your computer or downstream port of another
hub, then plug the mini 6-pin connector of the device cable into the
upstream port on the rear of the Hub.
Important Note: The Hub must be connected to a USB 2.0-compliant host
in order to function in high-speed mode (480Mbps data
rate). If the Hub is connected to a USB 1.1-compliant
host, it will operate only in low-speed or full-speed mode
(1.5Mbps/12Mbps).
3. Windows will now detect your Hub and install the required driver
support. (The Windows “Install New Hardware Wizard” may prompt
you to provide your Windows Installation CD to complete the driver
installation process).

INSTALLATION
Important Note: High-speed hub drivers are included with most USB 2.0
PCI upgrade cards, and are pre-installed along with the
PCI card drivers. If you purchased an upgrade card prior
to the release of high-speed hub support, please check
with your PCI card vendor for an updated USB 2.0 driver.
The Belkin USB 2.0 driver supports all competitive cards
based on the NEC host controller with the exception of
Adaptec. The most recent Belkin driver is available at
www.belkin.com.
4. Plug the USB-A connector of the USB device, or an additional hub,
into any of the downstream ports of the Hub.
Important Note: When moving a device from one port on the Hub to
another, it may be necessary to reinstall the USB drivers
for that device.
