Introduction

The CG-10PU3MGD is a managed USB 3.2 Gen 1 (commonly called USB3.0) hub which is designed to provide rich unique features for industrial applications. It provides an instant expansion of 4 USB3.2 Gen 1 downstream facing ports and keeps the excellent reliability and compatibility with all USB3.2, USB2.0 and 1.1 existing devices.

The hub complies with the Universal Serial Bus (USB) Specifications Revision 3.1 Gen 1 and works up to 5Gbps. It accepts wide range input power from 7~24 VDC. Its downstream facing ports support USB Battery Charging Specification v1.2 (SDP, CDP, DCP) as well as some Vendor Specific Charging Modes e.g. Apple 2.4A , Samsung.

The CG-10PU3MGD is supplied with managing software utilities which can turn on/off the bus power of each downstream device or even reset the entire hub. It also can save the designated state to its flash memory and read it back as the initial state of its next power up cycle. Different utilities were supported for different operating systems such as Windows, Intel x86-64 and ARM based Linux.

Since the USB is the most popular and scalable expansion bus for the modern computers. With the integrated software and hardware support, the CG-10PU3MGD provides an ideal solution to add your USB devices and value immediately and save your investment.

Managing Software

The CG-10PU3MGD software package contains several managing software utilities which support different platforms allowing better control over each individual ports' status.
