Multi USB port extenders...

Asked by XOIIO (18360points) March 28th, 2010

I was wondering (since I don’t have one to take apart) if they have a special circuit in them so you can hook in 4 instead of one, r it it is basically just 4 with all the connetions to the one cable.

I’m pretty sure it has a special circuit, but I want to double check.

It is your lucky day. I have a open 7 port usb hub on my desk. Here is a picture. As you can see it is bit more than splicing some wire together.

Thanks.

I figures it would have some controllers inside of it.
