Power USB Hub 3.0, atolla 16 Port USB Splitter with 12V/6A Power Adapter and Individual Switches, High-Speed Data Transfer for Laptop, PC, Mac, and More Devices

I run a server that has two USB hard drives and 6 USB audio boards that provides 6 online police scanner feeds - this USB hub really helps keep me connected and still have room for more plugins.

I don’t always go for these kinds of gadgets but I LIKE this one a lot. You can turn each of the ports on or off individually. They light up nicely and it’s a streamlined silhouette that isn’t as bulky as some of the others I’ve seen with fewer ports. No USB-C though, and that could be an issue for a hub meant to multi-task like this one. Fast data transfer and does not get hot, even when everything is plugged in.

This is the largest powered USB hub I’ve ever had, and I’ve got a bunch. This is a 3.0 rated connection and using a 256 GB thumbdrive, the Crystalmark is right on target with the same drive in direct 3.0 link as well as in other computers. I tested all slots and they all work the same. Be aware that to shut down a slot you need to press the slot button for about 2 seconds. Turn on is instant. This is a good anti-goof feature. 6 amp power supply. Main USB cable is permanent connect. 5 stars Note: I have been an Amazon customer for almost 20 years. I write all of my reviews to reflect my personal observations and opinions on a product. It matters not if I have purchased the item myself or if it was provided to me for review. My goal is to provide other potential customers as much real-world knowledge as possible to make an informed decision. In most cases I will return to my review in 6 months or less to see if I should alter my original observations. In no case will the cost of a product influence my opinions at all. In addition, I will try to include multiple images and or videos on each product, if practical.

Large like other reviews say. Love the 2 second power off switch x16.

Nice Hub with So Many USB Ports! Would have been even nicer if there was some type c connections as well. I did not have any problems transferring files among multiple external drives or multiple devices at the same time. I love the fact that I can mont this back of a monitor (with double stick tape) and have all the extra ports at arms length. Cleans up my work area, looks nice and clean and have a lot of extra ports for when needed. This hub is advertised correctly, the images are true. Highly Recommended. Packaging & Delivery:] The packaging is as expected and arrived without incident. Delivery was fast and as promised. [Summery:] All in all I am very happy. I am comfortable with the 5 stars. I have no problem recommending this hub or the seller.

Finally, we have a nice station to charge most of our devices in a single, central location. Im sure there are other hubs like this out there, but its my first. I like being able to switch on or off each USB port. I dont understand why items like this dont come with mounting hardware so it can easily be fixed in place, but I cant deduct stars from it since hardly any power strips or things like that come so equipped. Thats just my preference. Overall, a good buy.

It is nice to see some empty USB ports still available. So many devices to charge and connect to this hub that it almost looks absurd to have so many ports. But we need them.

Great to use and works perfectly

This is a powered USB 3.0 hub 3.0 with ports. Now that may seem like a simple sentence, but it isnt. In fact, USB hubs that claim to support USB 3.0 do not. The Atolla hub does. In addition it is powered. That mean that you need to plus it in. Many hub use what is called bus power. That mean that the power that they use is drawn fro the computer or device that they are connected to. That can put a strain on your system if you are using a lot of USB ports for power or charging. Having your own power supply for the hub is nice. Atolla claims that the hub delivers 12V/6A of power. My testing confirms that. Also Atolla clams USB 3.0 data transfer rates. Again, I have conformed that. So far, the Atolla is stacking up pretty well. Speaking of power, the 16 ports on the hub are individually switched. That can save money and heat. When you with a port off, the led light for the port also goes off so that you can visually determine if a port is on or not. That is nice. Atolla also claims fast charging speeds. While that is true, the Atolla does not support the latest quick charging standards. In the world of electronics, especially consumer electronics, a lot of manufacturers make all sorts of performance claim that they do not meet. Im happy that Atolla delivers what they promise.

This was surprisingly large for a computer usb hub. It has 16 ports, each with its own individual power button and LED light to show if its active or not. The hub data link to usb-a port, is hardwired into the hub. A power supply with 12 volts/ 6 amps is provided in the box. This hub is great for people that dislike plugging and unplugging cables. Each port is capable of charging and data, so its a huge expansion perk for any computer.
