Safety & maintenance
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. Carefully read these instructions and save them for future reference.
Do not expose the unit to rain, moisture, dripping or splashing and also avoid placing objects lled with liquid,
such as vases, on the unit.
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, nor use it in ambient temperatures exceeding 50°C.
Do not unmount the enclosure. There are no user repairable or adjustable parts inside. Leave service and
repairs to trained service technicians only.
Never use any aggressive cleaners on the casing or the ports. Remove dust, dirt and ngerprints with a soft,
dry and non-abrasive cloth. More persistent dirt can be removed with a slightly damp cloth using only water.
Disconnect all cables while doing this. Only reconnect them once the unit is safely dry.
Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
If an external AC adapter is connected, connect to an easily accessible power outlet close to the unit.
In the EU, only use CE approved power cords.
Only use attachments/accessories specied by the manufacturer.
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or any other unit that produces
heat. Protect the cords and connectors from being walked on or pinched.

Elektron Overhub
The agile companion for your Overbridge Suite setup.
Connect up to 7 Overbridge Devices - Analog Keys, Analog Four and Analog Rytm - to a single computer host.
Using a Multiple Transaction Translator hub like Overhub will, unlike most standard USB hubs, provide
maximum speed data streaming without transfer speed reduction with each additional device connected.
Overview
Front
7 x USB 3.0 Type A Ports, connects to devices.
Back
• 5V DC 3A Power In (AC Adapter Not Included)
• 1 x USB 3.0 Micro B port, connects to host.

Top
1 x Green LED light. Lights up when the unit receives operating voltage via the USB connection (from the com-
puter) or the Power in connection (via an external AC adapter). It does not indicate communications through
the hub.
The 7 device connector ports are backwards compatible with all previous versions of USB. The host connector
port is of the USB 3.0 standard, which is up to ten times faster than USB 2.0.
Overhub is a high-performance Multiple Transaction Translator Hub. With it, you can connect up to 7 USB
devices to a single host computer. A Multiple Transaction Translator hub merges multiple Full speed (12 Mbit/s)
devices together in a high speed (480 Mbit/s) stream.
Use of a standard Single Transaction Translator hub (the most common type readily available), conversely, only
lets one stream through at a time, making the hub itself a bottleneck for full speed USB devices.
The following items are included:
• Overhub Multiple Transaction Translator Hub with 7 device ports and 1 host port (USB 3.0)
• USB 2.0 A to Micro-B Connector Cable
• USB 3.0 A to Micro-B Connector Cable
• Four rubber feet
• This manual
Power Supply not included. Bus power from the computer host is sufcient to power 7 Overbridge devices.
Should you need to power a USB drive or charge an MP3 player you need an AC adapter (not included). Com-
patible power supply: 5 VDC 3A Connector 3,5 x 1,35 mm, center pin positive.

Should you experience a limited channel count in the Overbridge control panel or connection issues
when using several Overbridge devices, please use the bundled USB 2.0 cable. The problem is relat-
ed to certain USB chipsets and drivers incorrectly handling the USB 3.0 protocol.
