A 3-Minute Setup Makes the Network USB Hub the Industry’s First Reliable Print Server
COMPTON, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Belkin Network USB Hub works with your existing wireless router to give you wireless access to printers, media readers, and external hard drives.

Special caching techniques allow for support of high-speed USB devices and isochronous transfers at full speed. The software also allows you to easily transfer control of USB devices on the Hub between computers.
