Industrial
USB Hub 4 The Industrial USB Hub 4 primarily serves as USB hub for the connection of peripheral devices to Panels, Multi Panels and Panel PCs with integrated USB interface. The simultaneous connection of up to four peripheral devices - such as USB stick, printer, keyboard, mouse, hand-held barcode reader - to one panel is possible with the Industrial USB Hub 4.

Remark
More information on the Industrial USB Hub is available in the catalog ST80 and Entry ID: 23577105.

Important

The above recommendations do not reflect any official endorsement of equipment - except for the Industrial USB Hub 4. They simply represent a recommendation which is based on previous experience. In other words, responsibility for the use of these devices rests with you.
The current carrying capacity of the USB port differs depending on the type of operator panel. Refer to the relevant device manual in each case for precise specifications. It might therefore be necessary to provide an extra power supply for the device connected, for example, via the Industrial USB Hub 4.
