INTRODUCTION

In contrast, a traditional four-port USB 2.0 hub provides only 12Mbps of bandwidth for use by low- and full-speed devices, and this bandwidth is shared by each of the four ports. The TetraHub delivers up to 48Mbps of bandwidth, 12Mbps for each port!*

In addition to the “Quad TT” feature, the TetraHub also monitors the speed of each connected device and provides users with a visual indication of its connected speed. Refer to the “Determining the Speed of Connected Devices” section of this User Manual for additional information.

*In cases in which the TetraHub is connected to a USB 1.1 host controller, the maximum USB 1.1 bandwidth of 12 Mbps is shared across all four ports.
