What's the new Svbony SV241 USB hub and power distribution box? With the development of astrophotography, the amount of electrical devices used to take pictures has increased significantly. In order to minimize the need for cabling, extra power supply and distribution, the Svbony SV241 USB hub solves the USB data transfer as well as the power distribution via USB and DC connectors.
Let's take a look at what inputs and outputs are found on the device:
- DC 12V (max.: 10A) input optionally for power supply or battery
- 6pcs DC 12V output
- USB-B to connect the box to a PC
- USB-A 2.0 can be used to control a filter switch, for example
- 2b USB-A 3.1 for high-speed data transfer, for example to transmit footage from cameras
- USB-C for general data transfer
- 2b USB-A 2.0 for power only (max: 8A)
The USB ports have multiple protections:
- ESD protection (electrostatic discharge protection)
- Directional polarity protection
- Overvoltage, overcurrent protection (USB)
- Short circuit protection (USB)
The Svbony SV241 USB-HUB and power distribution box has a 1/4 inch (photo tripod thread) threaded hole on the bottom of the unit, and two M4 threaded holes can be used for this purpose. The device comes with three cables, a DC-DC, a DC cigarette lighter and a USB-B to USB-A cable.
