WE RECOMMEND
The sheer size of this hub from Century somewhat reminds me of the Imperial Navy battleship Yamato. Of course, the only similarity is their unusual large size. The sunken ship had 9 18.1" guns while the the USB hub is armed with a stunning 16 ports. The engineer manages to integrate the power brick inside, one of the reasons the mammoth measures 11.6 x 6.3 x 6.7cm. The built-in AC adapter bumps a 22.5W of electricity, though this hub, to our calculations, would actually need 40W if all ports are occupied by power-hungry gadgets. To top this off, a PC selector switch is also installed if another PC wants to borrow those 16 devices. Comparatively, we would rather prefer the so-called gold hub. About Everything USB
