IV. Power Mode Setting
There are two power mode options for the GE
“Executive Series” USB 2.0 4-Port Hub.
The rst is self-power mode (recommended),
which requires the use of the AC power
adapter. In this mode, each port is provided
with 500 milliamps, allowing for additional
hubs, cameras and other high-powered
devices.
The second is bus-power mode, which does
NOT require the use of the AC power adapter.
In this mode, the hub is provided with 500
milliamps for all 4 ports. This should be
adequate for mice, keyboards, and other low
power devices. If you are not sure or if device
performance is poor, use the AC adapter.
When using the AC power adapter, make
sure the plug is properly connected to the hub
and to a standard electrical outlet. GE Surge
protection is recommended.

Mount the bracket/base using the supplied
screws, slide the spacer insert into the bracket/
base and then slide on the hub for a snug t.

IV. Configuración dela entradade corriente
El Hub USB 2.0 de 4 puertos “Serie ejecutiva”
de GE tiene dos tipos de entradas de corriente.
En el primer modo (recomendado), autoalimen-
tado, el Hub necesita el adaptador de corriente.
En este modo, cada puerto cuenta con 500
miliamperios, lo que permite que se puedan usar
Hubs, cámaras y otros aparatos adicionales de
alta potencia.
En el segundo modo, el Hub funciona con la
energía del bus y NO necesita el adaptador de
corriente alterna. En este modo, el Hub cuenta
con 500 miliamperios para los 4 puertos. Esto
es suciente para ratones, teclados y otros
aparatos de baja potencia. Si no está seguro o
si el aparato no funciona como es debido, use
el adaptador de corriente alterna. Cuando use
el adaptador de corriente alterna, asegúrese
de que enchufe esté conectado al Hub y a una
salida estándar de corriente. Se recomienda
usar el Protector de sobrecargas GE.
