"Power Adapter Bulky and Way Too Short"

1.5 stars  | on by ProbelmChild1970

Pros

7 Ports of High Speed USB, Compact Design

Cons

Power Adapter Bulky, Poser Cord Way Too Short

Belkin is usually very decent stuff but in this case a design flaw makes it almost worthless. The power cord has a bulky wall adapter (like many others) but it's major drawback is that the power cord is 2 1/2 feet in length! That means that the adapter cannot sit on my desk or anywhere else that is not 2 1/2 feet from a powerstip or outlet. I'm very disappointed that they overlooked this. It makes the product useless and wasted the time it took to buy it and the time it is going to take to return it. Pay attention Belkin.

"Small and powerful"

4 stars  | on by Red 5

Pros

Compact, stylish, powerful, and it just plain works well.

Cons

Powercord too short, otherwise this would have gotten 4.5 stars from me. The blackish design is handsome but a bit striking against my aluminum mac equipment.

Summary

This hub works solid. I've used it with a keyboard, mouse, ink-jet printer, WD USB drive, external Maxtor, phone charger, and Bluetooth Jawbone charger all plugged in at the same time and working and the hub didn't skip a beat. The hub doesn't have an indicator light ... Read full review

This hub works solid. I've used it with a keyboard, mouse, ink-jet printer, WD USB drive, external Maxtor, phone charger, and Bluetooth Jawbone charger all plugged in at the same time and working and the hub didn't skip a beat. The hub doesn't have an indicator light when something's plugged in but I actually like that now since I get tired of my workspace being lit up by peripherals all the time. It also is very compact so if I need to take it on the go, it fits nicely in my shirt pocket. The drawback about the short power cord was a nuisance setting it up since I had to run a separate extension cord for it, but I also know that it's nice to have short cords sometimes too to reduce the spaghetti bowl that happens in most setups. The short cord may benefit some people. 7 ports from this little hub sure is sweet. Thanks belkin.
