The CyberData 4-Port PoweredUSB 2.0 Hub provides a simple, affordable way to add up to four
PoweredUSB ports to your PC. These additional ports are controlled by the PC’s Standby and Wake
commands. This add-on Hub makes it easy to connect the PC to devices that require more than the
500mA of +5 volts supplied with the standard USB interface.

This following topics provide illustrations and information on connecting the CyberData 4-Port
PoweredUSB 2.0 Hub to power supplies, the host, and peripheral devices.
2.3.1 Power supply
The PoweredUSB specification requires supplying +24V at 2.3A and +12V at 1.5A to each voltage
designated port. These requirements are met only if the power supply has sufficient wattage for this
amount of power.

The CyberData 4-Port PoweredUSB 2.0 Hub is a standard USB Hub that complies with the USB 2.0
specification, and adds PoweredUSB ports. When connected to a Host, it is enumerated as a Generic
USB Hub. This Hub also meets the PoweredUSB .08g specification. For more information about this
specification, go to www.poweredusb.org.

According to the USB 2.0 specification, devices attached to a USB interface should enumerate from

comply with this specification, and will not enumerate unless the upper sectionsof the PoweredUSB
ports are active.
When running on operating systems such as Windows XP with no devi
the operating system turns the Hub off. The operating system does not detect non-compliant
peripherals when they are hot-plugged into an empty Hub. Consequently PoweredUSB power is
not supplied to the peripheral. In this case, you canrestore correct operation as follows.
1. Unplug the Host side connection for five
2. Be sure that at least one USB device is plugge

3. Plug in a standard USB compliant device, such as a mouse or keyboard.

For connecting the CyberData 4-Port PoweredUSB 2.0 Hub to a PC running the Windows XP
operating system, keep in mind:
1. Microsoft XP Service Pack 1 or higher must be installed.

2. When connecting the Hub for the first time, it is
correctly. A Microsoft XP Service Pack issue does not enumerate and recognize a Hub when no
devices are attached to it. To correctly enumerate the CyberData 4-Port PoweredUSB 2.0 Hub,
attach a peripheral whose drivers are included in Windows XP, such as a USB mouse, prior to
enumerating the Hub. To accomplish this:
a. Connect a USB mouse to one of the lower
b. Connect the power cord to the Hub.
c. With the PC powered up, connectthehost control cable from the Hub to a USB port on the

C. Doing so displays the Found new hardwaredialog, indicating that the PC is searching for
drivers for the Hub.
d. When the PC completes the driver search, it displays the Found new
search of a driver for the mouse. If required, click Next in all screens of the wizard to
complete the driver selection for the mouse.
At this point, you should be able to plug in and install
