USBG-4PminiH USB 3.0 Metal Mini 4-Port Hub
The USBG-4PminiH has been designed to be connected a computer with USB interfaces.
It serves to connect additional USB devices. During operation it operates like a bi-
directional repeater, which repeats USB signals as required on upstream
(computer) and downstream (peripherals) cables. It is designed for USB 3.0 and
backward compatible with USB2.0 and USB 1.1. Its operation requires connection
with a computer. Only operate the USB HUB in dry indoor room.
Unauthorized conversion and/or modification of the device are inadmissible
because of safety and approval reasons (CE). Such acts invalidate the warranty.
Any usage other than described above is not permitted and can damage the device and lead to associate risks such as
short-circuit, fire, electric shock and etc. Please read the operation instructions thoroughly and keep the operating
instructions for further reference.

Mounting
You can set up the HUB on an even base or mount it by means of one to four screws (not included) on a stable base in
the desired orientation.
Operation
1. Plug the USB A-plug of the cable into a free USB connection of your computer and plug the USB mini-plug into
the port of the HUB.
2. Now you can connect up to four USB devices to the HUB. Each output has an LED indicator.
3. The device supports Plug & Play and Hot Swap (device drivers are automatically detected and installed or devices
themselves can be removed while the OS is in operation)
4. Connect the power supply unit to a socket with permissible operating voltage
5. Plug the power supply unit into the power input jack provided for it on the hub or insert the USB cable into USB
port of your computer. The LED indicator will be light (red color)
6. When insert the device into the USB port of the hub, the LED indicator of the port will be light (green color)
Product Safety
•When used in conjunction with other devices, observe the operating instructions and safety notices of
connected devices
•The product must not be subjected to heavy mechanical stress or intense vibration
•The product must not be exposed to electromagnetic fields, extreme temperatures, direct sunlight or dampness
•The product should not be used immediately after it has been brought from an area of cold temperature to an
area of warm temperature. Condensed water might destroy the product. Wait until the product adapts to the
new ambient temperature before use.

Additional Information
•The USB 3.0 is USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 compatible. That means that traditional USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices can be
operated without problems on the USB3.0 hub. USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices do not become quicker through
this!
•The USB 3.0 hub can, of course, also be operated on a USB 1.1 connection, e.g. if your PC has no USB 3.0
connection. An increase in speed in the data transmission is not possible here either.
•To be able to exploit the high speed, all devices must support USB 3.0—the USB device (e.g. and external CD
burner) itself, the USB hub and the USB controller in the PC
•In practical operation, the 5.0Gbps it is not achieved. Hardly any device (e.g. hard disk, burner etc) is in a position
to supply data so quickly. Other causes also (e.g. simultaneous operation of other USB devices, protocol
information etc.) reduce the transmission rate
•USB operation is not possible in Windows safe mode or under DOS. USB keyboards and a USB mouse do not
normally work. The BIOS/setup of your PC possibly has appropriate support (could be called e.g. “Legacy USB
support”). It is possible, however, that the USB keyboard/mouse is to be connected directly to the motherboard
and not on a USB hub.
