Advantech’s New Industrial-Grade 5-Port USB
Hub with High-Isolation

Taipei, Taiwan - July, 2010 – The Industrial Automation Group of Advantech has released its second industrial-grade USB hub, USB-4620, with 5 USB 2.0 ports. Compared to the Advantech’s first USB hub, USB-4622, USB-4620 enhances its isolation protection to 3,000 VDC for each downstream port, making every USB device connected with USB-4620 could operate independently and safely.

Designed for industrial applications, USB-4620 is able to be mounted through several types, such as DIN-rail mounting, wall mount, and VESA mount. Other than that, USB-4620 is equipped with lockable USB connectors and screw holes, allowing each device to be connected firmly with USB-4620. Though the standard USB cable is made for easy plugging and removing, it is critical to have reliable connections while operating for automation control and online production applications. Advantech combines these two attributes into its USB modules; with the lockable casing accessory for type A USB connector, each device could be linked with USB-4620 easily and resist vibration at the same time, rising the convenience and reliability of the control system.
