Technical Architecture & Functionality
Newnex FireNEX™-uHUB-10G is a rugged industrial USB-C hub built for harsh environments and professional deployments where flaky hubs and weak power delivery are not “quirks”, they’re outages.
It provides 7 downstream ports: five 10Gbps USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports for high-speed devices (three USB-C and two USB-A), plus two USB 2.0 ports for peripherals like keyboards, mice, and low-speed control devices. An upstream USB-C host port connects to the computer at 10Gbps.
Power is the other half of the story: FireNEX-uHUB-10G supports bidirectional USB Power Delivery 3.0. With sufficient power input, it can deliver up to 100W (20V/5A) to the host and up to 100W (20V/5A) to a PD-capable downstream USB-C device at the same time. Non-PD ports also provide practical charging current for peripherals.
The enclosure is anodized aluminum for durability and EMI protection, and it’s designed for surface mounting with an included bracket style suitable for wall/rail installs.
Key Engineering Advantages
Real 10Gbps Hub for Harsh Environments
Five 10Gbps downstream ports for high-speed devices, plus two USB 2.0 ports for peripherals.
Bidirectional 100W Power Delivery
With sufficient power input, deliver up to 100W to the host and up to 100W to a PD downstream device.
Industrial Power Input Options
24V DC input via DC jack or screw terminal supports serious power budgets up to 240W.
Locking Ports for Secure Installs
Screw-lock compliance helps prevent accidental disconnects in vibration and motion-heavy deployments.
ESD and Overcurrent Protection
20kV ESD protection across all USB ports helps protect systems from shocks and faulty peripherals.
No Drivers, No Drama
Plug-and-play operation across Windows, macOS, and Linux.
