F5U217 - USB Hub BELKIN - Free user manual and instructions

USER MANUAL F5U217 BELKIN

Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Pocket Hub (the Hub). The Hub provides three downstream USB ports that are compatible with both USB 1.1 (low-speed and full-speed) devices, as well as with USB 2.0 (high-speed) devices.

This means that the Hub is backward-compatible with all of your current USB 1.1 devices as well as the new generation of Hi-Speed USB 2.0 devices. This may include 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 can be connected to a single port. The Hub also provides a multicolored status LED for each individual port, and a master power LED. For additional information, refer to the Technical Specifications section.

INSTALLATION

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.

Note: The Hub may be used without the power supply when connecting low-power devices such as keyboards and mice. Remove the USB A cable connector from its built-in storage bay, then plug it into the downstream port of your computer, or downstream port of another hub (see Fig. 1).

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).

1. Your Windows operating system will now detect your Hub and install the required driver support. (The Windows

INSTALLATION (CONTINUED)

"Install New Hardware Wizard" may prompt you to provide your Windows Installation CD to complete the driver installation process).

Important Note: Hi-Speed USB 2.0 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 Hi-Speed USB 2.0 hub support, please check with your PCI card vendor for an updated USB 2.0 driver. The Belkin Hi-Speed 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.

1. Plug the USB A connector of the USB device, or an additional hub, into any of the downstream ports of the Hub (see Fig. 2).

Important Note: When plugging a USB device into the Hub for the first time, it may be necessary to reinstall the USB drivers for that device. Likewise, if you move the device to another port on the Hub, it may be necessary to reinstall the drivers.
