Eaton Tripp Lite Industrial-Grade Hubs are made of heavy-duty all-metal housing that’s durable and able to withstand the harsh physical conditions in industrial and commercial applications, such as factories, construction sites, supply rooms, and warehouses. Machines on the shop floor can generate electrostatic discharges, wiping out data and damaging sensitive electronics. Electrostatic discharges and other industrial conditions can disable hubs connecting external hard drives, barcode scanners, industrial printers, and more. Tripp Lite USB hubs provide ESD protection to ±15kV, reducing potential static damage to connected peripherals. This feature works in tandem with overcurrent protection to safeguard connected devices against damage and data loss from power surges.
