5. Power Delivery (Optional)
   • Some USB hubs offer Power Delivery (PD), allowing you to charge your devices or even your laptop while using the hub for data transfer. These hubs can provide higher power outputs, up to 100W, depending on the model.
6. Wide Compatibility
   • USB hubs are compatible with a wide range of devices, including desktops, laptops, tablets, and some smartphones, and work with multiple operating systems such as Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Technical Specifications

• USB Versions: USB 2.0 (480 Mbps), USB 3.0 (5 Gbps), USB 3.1 (10 Gbps), or USB 3.2 (20 Gbps).
• Number of Ports: 4, 7, 10, or more USB ports.
• Power Output: 5V, 9V, 12V, or up to 100W (with Power Delivery).
• Compatibility: Windows, macOS, Linux, and some Android devices.

USB to Parallel Adapter

KSH 1500 EXCL OF VAT

Features

1. Connectivity:
   • One end of the cable has a USB connector (type-A) that plugs into a computer, while the other end has a parallel port connector (DB25 or DB37) that connects to the older peripheral.
2. Plug and Play:
   • Most USB to parallel cables are designed to be plug and play, meaning they require no special drivers or installation for basic functionality. However, some may require a driver if the system does not automatically recognize the device.
3. Backward Compatibility:
   • Ideal for connecting parallel printers, scanners, or other legacy equipment to modern computers, many of which no longer include parallel ports (often replaced by USB ports).
4. Data Transfer:
   • The USB interface supports relatively fast data transfer, but keep in mind that parallel ports tend to be slower than modern USB interfaces, so the performance of the connected device may not match the speed of modern peripherals.
5. Usage:
   • These cables are most commonly used for connecting old dot matrix printers or legacy devices (such as older scanners or network adapters) that only support a parallel interface.
6. Compatibility:
   • Operating System Compatibility: Works with most Windows and Linux systems, though certain operating systems may require drivers for proper function. It’s essential to check compatibility with your specific hardware and OS.
7. Durability:
   • These cables are typically made with high-quality shielding to ensure the stability of data transmission over longer distances.

USB to SATA 3.0 Cable

KSH 1000 EXCL OF VAT

FEATURES: 

1. Connector Types:
   • One end of the cable features a USB connector (typically USB-A or USB-C) to plug into a modern computer.
   • The other end has a SATA connector to interface with a SATA hard drive or SSD. It could support both SATA I, SATA II, and SATA III (with USB 3.0 for faster data transfer rates).
2. Data Transfer Speed:
   • With USB 3.0 (or USB 3.1 / USB 3.2) support, this cable offers high-speed data transfer rates up to 5 Gbps (for USB 3.0) or 10 Gbps (for USB 3.1/3.2), which is significantly faster than USB 2.0 speeds.
   • The actual speed is limited by both the SATA standard of the connected drive and the USB standard of the computer. However, SATA III (6 Gbps) combined with USB 3.0 or higher provides a good balance of speed.
3. Plug and Play:
   • These cables are generally plug-and-play, meaning they do not require additional drivers to function with most operating systems, including Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. Once connected, the drive should appear as an external drive.
4. Power Supply:
   • Many USB to SATA 3.0 cables provide bus-powered operation, meaning they draw power from the USB port itself.
   • Some cables may include a separate power adapter for drives that require more power, such as 3.5-inch hard drives, which are often used with an additional power source.
5. Compatibility:
   • The cable is compatible with both SATA hard drives (HDDs) and solid-state drives (SSDs) and is perfect for transferring data, backing up files, or retrieving data from a drive without needing to install it internally into a computer.
   • The cable can also be used with SATA-based optical drives and external enclosures for storage expansion.
6. Compact and Portable:
   • The cable is lightweight and easy to carry, making it an ideal solution for those needing quick and temporary access to data from a SATA drive while on the go.
   • It doesn’t require additional software or hardware, just the cable and the drive.
7. Backward Compatibility:
   • USB to SATA 3.0 cables are generally backward compatible with USB 2.0 ports, but the transfer speeds will be limited to USB 2.0 speeds (up to 480 Mbps).
   • SATA I and SATA II drives can also be used, but the speed will be limited by the slower SATA standard, not the USB 3.0 speed.
