User Manual  
F5U218-MOB  
INTRODUCTION  
Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Belkin  
Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Thumb Hub (the Hub). The Hub provides four  
downstream USB ports that are compatible with both USB 1.1  
(low- and full-speed) devices, as well as with Hi-Speed USB 2.0  
(high-speed) devices.  
This means that the Hub is backward-compatible with all of your  
current USB 1.1 devices as well as with the new generation of  
Hi-Speed USB 2.0 devices. This may include such peripherals as  
scanners, printers, mass storage devices, and high-resolution  
cameras. The Hub is self-powered, which allows the cascading of  
devices with additional hubs, so that up to 127 USB devices can  
be connected to a single port. For additional information, please  
refer to the Technical Specifications section.

INSTALLATION  
1. Plug the AC adapter into a wall outlet or surge suppressor. Plug the DC  
connector into the DC power jack found on the side of the Hub (see Fig. 1).  
A red light on the Hub should come on indicating that the Hub is getting  
power from the power supply, or from the USB port (if the Hub is being  
operated without the power supply).  
Note: The Hub may be used without the power supply when connecting low-power  
devices such as standard keyboards and mice.  
2. Next, connect your Thumb Hub either to a 2.0- or 1.1-compliant USB  
connection on your PC, either through the extension cable or directly to  
the PC.  
Important Note: The Hub must be connected to a USB 2.0-compliant host in  
order to function in high-speed mode (480Mbps data rate). If the Hub is  
connected to a USB 1.1-compliant host, it will operate only in low-speed or  
full-speed mode (1.5Mbps/12Mbps).  
3. Your Windows operating system will now detect your Hub and install the  
required driver support. (The Windows “Install New Hardware Wizard” may  
prompt you to provide your Windows Installation CD to complete the driver  
installation process).

INSTALLATION  
Important Note: Hi-Speed USB 2.0 hub drivers are included with most USB 2.0  
PCI upgrade cards, and are pre-installed along with the PCI card drivers. If you  
purchased an upgrade card prior to the release of Hi-Speed USB 2.0 hub support,  
please check with your PCI card vendor for an updated USB 2.0 driver. The Belkin  
Hi-Speed USB 2.0 driver supports all competitive cards based on the NEC host  
controller with the exception of Adaptec. The most recent Belkin driver is available  
4. Plug the USB A connector of the USB device, or an additional hub, into any  
of the downstream ports of the Hub (see Fig. 4).  
Important Note: When plugging a USB device into the Hub for the first time, it  
may be necessary to reinstall the USB drivers for that device. Likewise, if you move  
the device to another port on the Hub, it may be necessary to reinstall the drivers.
