USB hub EXSYS EX-1185HMVS-2

The EXSYS EX-1185HMVS-2 is a rugged industrial-grade USB hub with four USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-A outputs and a USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-B host interface. Housed in a durable black metal case, the hub supports Hi-Speed USB 3.2 Gen1 data transfer rates up to 5 Gbit/s, is backward compatible with USB 1.1, and includes 15 kV ESD surge protection. It can be mounted on a wall or on a carrier rail and connects to a computer or server using the supplied USB 3.2 Gen1 cable. The unit accepts power via USB bus power (7–48 V) or through a two-wire terminal strip for direct wiring.

Advantages

The EX-1185HMVS-2 combines industrial durability, multiple high-speed USB 3.2 Gen1 ports and built-in 15 kV ESD protection in a compact metal housing. Its flexible power options allow operation from USB bus power or from an external two-wire terminal connection. The hub supports plug-and-play connectivity with standard USB 3.2 Gen1 cable and offers backward compatibility with older USB standards.

Suitable for

• Industrial and factory automation systems
• Embedded systems and rack-mounted servers
• Workstations requiring multiple high-speed USB ports

How to use

Connect the EX-1185HMVS-2 to a host computer or server using the included USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-B to Type-A cable. Mount the hub on a wall or carrier rail as required, securing it with appropriate fasteners. Choose a power method: supply USB bus power in the 7–48 V range or insert power wires into the two-wire terminal strip for external power; the terminal accepts wires without the need for a screwdriver. After powering, attach USB devices to the four Type-A ports. The hub is plug-and-play and will enumerate on the host according to standard USB protocols.

Recommendations

For reliable operation in industrial environments, mount the hub in a protected location, ensure wiring follows local electrical codes, and connect devices and the host while power is off when possible. Maintain proper ESD handling when connecting sensitive equipment.
