The VINT Hub is one of the most commonly used Phidgets. Connect up to six devices to your computer through a single USB port. Phidgets are "Plug and Program" - When plugged in, they are automatically discovered by the Phidget drivers and made available to your program. You can configure each port to operate in different modes that make it easy to interface with VINT devices, analog sensors, or logic-level circuits. Each port also has a power and ground pin, providing direct access to the USB voltage supply.
The HUB0002_0 has improved immunity, resulting in a longer maximum cable length for any device with the 
icon printed on the enclosure.
It also supports high-speed megabit communication (marked with 
). For some VINT devices, this will result in faster data rates and lower latency.
For more information about these features, see the User Guide.

* - Ports 0, 1 and 2 share power, as do ports 3, 4, and 5. This specification is the maximum shared between each set of 3 ports.
** VINT Port voltage is taken directly from USB voltage, so it may not be exactly 5V depending on what kind of USB port the HUB0002 is plugged into.
*** ADC is 12 bit, oversampled to 15 bit.

Use a USB cable to connect this Phidget to your computer. We have a number of different lengths available, although the maximum length of a USB cable is 5 meters due to limitations in the timing protocol. For longer distances, we recommend that you use a Single Board Computer to control the Phidget remotely.
