Magnets and USB Hubs – Good Or Bad?

Written by Richard Blanchard on October 2nd, 2008. Posted in USB Fever, USB Gadgets, USB Hub

It all boils down to where you connect the magnets.  For the most part this magnetic USB hub is best designed to work with office furniture, cabinets and the like.  Probably not the best idea to set it on the computer chassis – although it wouldn’t do too much harm.

The idea behind USBFever’s magnetic hub is convenience.  Place it where you need it.  There are three magnets on the underside of the 4 port hub with enough strength to hold any combination of USB cables and flash drives in place.

The 4 port USB magnetic hub will only set you back 14 USD plus a couple bucks in shipping.Available via USBFever.
