Running out of USB ports? Look no further. The GWC HU2F71 is a portable solution to your problems. It gives you seven ports, and with an optional external power source it's a great and inexpensive way to expand your connectivity. Compact and portable, it's easy to move between computers or take on the road.

The HU2F71 is Plug-n-Play, so it can be plugged into any computer without having to be configured. It will also support almost any operating system, including Windows 98, 98SE, 2000, ME, XP, and Mac OS X. A fine addition to any computer, the GWC HU2G40 is a great way to expand your connections.

7-port USB Hub The GWC HU2F71 USB 2.0 hub features one USB 2.0 upstream port to connect the hub and your computer and seven USB 2.0 downstream ports for connection to a variety of USB devices such as storage devices, scanners, printers, external optical drivers and digital cameras.
USB 2.0 Interface The USB 2.0 interface enables high data transfer speeds of up to 480Mbps so you save time while copying or moving data. This device is also backwards compatible with USB Revision 1.1 products.
Power Adapter Included The GWC HU2F71 USB 2.0 hub can be powered either via the USB port on your computer or via the external power adapter. When the bus power (through the USB port on the computer) fails to meet the power requirements of the USB devices, plugging the power adapter to external power will ensure your USB devices work properly.

N/A 1/18/2013 4:38:16 PM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 3/5decent. needs more weight to it. Pros: 7 usb ports, cheap. Cons: too light... i have 3 cables plugged in the back and it wants to tip over... would have been better with a weighted bottom, red LED is weird and stays on Other Thoughts: if the bottom would have had more weight to it, a neater looking LED and the ugly side thing sticking out the side taken off this would have been an awesome product.

Smurf 10/5/2011 9:37:19 PM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Nice Hub Pros: Cheap and looks nice. Works as advertised. I like having the two ports on the front for quick access for thumb drives and mobile devices. Cons: Packaging is cheap too, oh well. Other Thoughts: Smaller than I anticipated, but the simple little stand really does keep it stable. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!

JP 1/16/2011 8:58:09 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5Works good Pros: Nice design. Fits perfectly on desk. Not obnoxiously big. Two ports in front are nice. Cons: Red power LED Light stays on at all times. Other Thoughts: Besides for the red LED light staying on this is a great hub for the price.

kph 11/2/2009 9:09:22 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Great product Pros: This was so easy to set up. Loved the fact that it had 2 ports in front. All 5 ports in back are beuing used and it recognized everything without a problem. The small size made it ideal for what I was looking for. Cons: None yet Other Thoughts: Purchased from New Egg because everything arrives so quickly. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 8/31/2009 7:06:02 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 5/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5First Class Act - Perfect Pros: This powered usb hub is perfect and has a perfeshional look. Nice stand and plenty of ports. Nice color, nice look and sturdy. The base connects to the top tower. Two 2.0 USB ports in the fronr, five in the back, pluss the DC power. The PC to HUB USB cable also connects in the back of the hub. Cons: None. Get a chain to lock it down or someone might want to steal it, because it's so nice. Other Thoughts: Hub has one red LED for a power on indicator, but doesn't have a flashing LED to indicate read / write access, but thats ok, my flash thumb drive does so that works for me. This is my second one I bought, the first one was so nice that someone stold it off my office desk after working hours. Did you find this review helpful?

N/A 8/21/2009 3:15:45 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 5/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 3/5 Pros: The hub has a convenient shape and size. The straight stack of ports in the back is nice. Haven't noticed any data corruption or unbearably slow speeds. They've lasted two years so far. Cons: After about six months of use, two of these hubs started acting finicky when I would bring the attached computer out of standby. About 20% of the time, one of them would require a hard reset by removing then reinserting the power and USB cables. Regular boots worked fine, it was just standby that caused me problems. Two years of this is enough -- I finally broke down and bought a more expensive/more reliable hub. Other Thoughts: Why do so many of the cheap hubs fail in the same way: random disconnects cured by cycling power? Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
