SeaI/O-270U User Manual

Introduction

The SeaI/O-270U is an optically isolated 7-port USB hub that protects the host computer from spikes, surges and ground loops commonly found in industrial environments. The hub is powered by an industrial grade wall-mount power supply providing a full 500mA to each attached USB peripheral. The SeaI/O-270U is ideal for adding USB ports to a SeaPAC touchscreen HMI system, a Relio R1000 embedded solid-state industrial computer, or a SeaI/O data acquisition “stack”.
The SeaI/O-270 integrates patent-pending SeaLATCH USB ports, which are fully compatible with standard USB cables. When used with the included USB cable with a SeaLATCH type B USB connector, the metal thumbscrew provides a secure metal-to-metal connection to the hub and prevents accidental cable disconnection. The hub’s seven SeaLATCH type A USB connectors can secure USB peripherals to the hub in the same way. Additionally, a highly-retentive type B USB connector helps prevent unintentional separation from a standard USB cable.
