FAQ
Q: What does “self-powered” mean for the FireNEX™-uHUB?
A: The FireNEX™-uHUB receives its downstream power entirely from an external power supply rather than from the host computer. When the external power supply is turned off, the hub and all downstream USB ports also lose power, even if the upstream USB cable remains connected. This allows connected bus-powered devices, such as USB cameras, to be turned off or power-cycled using an external power controller.
Q: What is the maximum speed of the FireNEX™-uHUB?
A: The maximum speed of FireNEX™-uHUB is 5 Gbps as specified by the USB 3.0 standard.
Q: Is the FireNEX™-uHUB USB3 Vision Compliant and RoHS Compliant?
A: Yes, the FireNEX™-uHUB is USB3 Vision Compliant and RoHS Compliant. FireNEX™-uHUB Rohs Certifcation can be found in Newnex's FireNEX™ Repeaters Certifcate.
