Quest for Compatible USB hubs
Quest for Compatible USB hubs Posted on: 10.12.2009 by Johnny Achziger I have seen here on the community
time to time. what usb hubs work with our gear as myself is also looking for one.I have been emailing manufacturers to find out if their hubs do indeed have Multi TT (Transaction Translator), which is what we need due to the vestax and some other gear still in the usb 1.1 world... 99% of the manufacturers don't post this information in their spec sheets because 99% of the customers have no idea what a TT is So far only one of the brands I have contacted has responded, i will edit and update as which ones I find out on.... I am still awating responses from Koutech, IoGear, and D-Link Confirmed Multi TT Hubs
Update 12-23-09 Belkin finally responded... here is a list of their brand Multi TT hubs.
Brand: Rosewill
Dear Valued Customer,
Thank you for your patience as we get the update from our engineers. All our hubs are using one TT chip because Multi-TT is used for USB 1.1 device to upper the transaction speed. For USB 2.0 devices, the speed are the same no matter one TT chip usedor Multi TT chip. As MTT is much more expensive, we have no plan to produce USB hub withMTT support. Thank you for your patience. Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns. Sincerely, Sophia Rosewill Support Tim, Unfortunately, we do not offer a hub that will have multiple transaction translators. Our hubs will only have a single transaction translator. Please check with one of our channel partners who may offer a solution for you. Thank you! Cables To Go Technical Support | |

| Corey Ganer 22.08.2012 | I am bringing it back up again as I am on the lookout for a USB Hub. I want one that is multi TT and self powered as they seem to be the best option. Do you know wether D-link's DUB H7 is a multi TT hub? Do you have any recomendations? Preferably, not so expensive ones? |
| Lilliana Perris 18.08.2010 | Right....just seen this one....and they say it has multi TT....but its FUCKING cheap....so i dunno. http://www.shopxtreme.com/USB-Cards/...duct_info.html What you guys believe? |
| Armando Chrystal 25.01.2010 | if you didnt notice there is a post by ean on the home page dealing with USB hubs |
| Anette Botek 25.01.2010 | Thanks |
| Johnny Achziger 25.01.2010 | Thought i'd bump this back to the top in light of the recent post on the site to debunk all the usb mumbo jumbo.... |
| Johnny Achziger 23.12.2009 | firewire will never fade, its latency for audio and video are superior and the latest firewire hitting 800Mmbps. but USB 3.0 may change all that. USB 3.0 (Superspeed USB) will have a theoretical bandwidth of 4.8Gbps (minus packet overhead), ability to provide a 900ma per device current limit. connectors will be different,but are planned to be backwards compatible The new 3.0 Spec uses 4 pairs of wires instead of 2 pairs that's used in the current usb 2.0 & 1.0 spec. Don't Expect to see usb 3.0 in the mainstream for at least another 1-2 years or so Intel is bucking the new usb3.0 and wont support it till 2011 thay have something else they had in the works and calls it code name "Light Peak" it is an Optical cable running at 10Gbps with capabilities to reach 100Gbps in future revisions. Their believeing is that "light peak" will be the answer to all high speed connectivity (Sata, USB, Firewire, SCSI, HDMI). |

| Johnny Achziger 17.12.2009 | Well I thought I would give it a little time before I updated this thread, but I have never gotten a response from IOGear, D-Link nor. Koutech Which is a shame. I still am trying to get info on whats available. |

| Johnny Achziger 10.12.2009 | A real good write up that puts a lot of things into Layman's terms can be found on the Toms Hardware Guide... http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/...ology,677.html |
| Nick Ross 10.12.2009 | Damn...I just got learned in somethin bruh! Seriously, great post. I gotta read up on what this actually means (TT) and how it affects my setup. |
| Johnny Achziger 10.12.2009 | Yea the cables unltd is in fact a multi TT, I have never seen it as any traditional brick and mortar store, only online and not many carry it..... I am wanting to see whats all out there, someones in a bind and need one quick then a bounce over to a Staples, Fry's or Whatever.. I know the older Belkin TetraHub was but they don't make it anymore,,, |
| Roselle Mcnaul 10.12.2009 | Found one here. |
| Michel Compoli 10.12.2009 | good job timmy, keep us updated |
| Johnny Achziger 10.12.2009 | yea but most of the spec sheets don't say exactly what chipset they are using... (Cypress, SMSC) etc... if they did it would make it so much easier... |
| Martha Klepper 10.12.2009 | Isn't there some way to get access to product spec sheets with some digging? I'll ask my brother about that sometime... he's an electrical engineer and this is his bag. |
