Flash drives, external hard drives, digital cameras, scanners, printers are mostly connected to a computer via a USB port. This is great in many ways: USB devices are quick and easy to use. However, what if there are more USB devices that need to be connected than there are ports on the computer? This problem can be solved by using a USB hub.

Step 1
Connect the USB hub adapter to an electrical outlet. Some USB hubs are powered by a computer and therefore do not require electrical power.
