6 x USB3.1 Active Ports – Delivers 2.5A each

Behold the Pegasus Astro USB Control Hub (UCH), boasting 6 x USB 3.1 Ports designed to revolutionize your astrophotography experience:

Versatile Compatibility: All ports seamlessly support USB 1.0 and USB 2.0 devices, ensuring compatibility with a wide array of equipment.

Enhanced Power Delivery: Each port is equipped to deliver up to 2.5Amps of current, empowering your devices with ample power for optimal performance.

Intelligent Current Management: With smart current limit sensors in every port, the hub automatically regulates power, safeguarding against short-circuits and excessive power consumption.

Proactive Monitoring: The USB Controller diligently monitors each port, promptly alerting users through an intuitive pop-up warning in the operating system in the event of a current limit breach.

Extended temperature support (industrial grade)

Most USB Hubs in the market (well…nearly all of them) operate under room temperatures as they were design to work inside your cosy warm room. This is one of the reasons why you experience USB disconnects and instability during a cold night.

Step into a new realm of reliability with our USB Control Hub, engineered to excel where others falter. While conventional hubs succumb to the chill of a cold night, ours defies the elements with confidence:

Unparalleled Endurance: Certified to operate flawlessly across extreme temperatures ranging from a bone-chilling −40°C to a scorching +85°C, (-40°F to +185°F) our hub ensures uninterrupted performance even in the harshest environments.

Industrial-Grade Components: Every aspect of our USB Hub electronics is chosen to withstand industrial-grade temperature ranges, guaranteeing resilience and longevity in the face of adversity.

Other Key Features

Aluminium Enclosure

A high quality robust, blue anodised 6061 aluminium enclosure houses the electronics of the USB Hub. The metal enclosure designed and tested to survive ±5kV ESD strikes

Switchable USB Ports

Each USB port can be controlled and switched ON/OFF by our standalone software. No more pull out and re-plug USB cables of your equipment.

12V DC Operation

The 12V DC operation was our first design requirement. As most of your astro-equipment requires 12V DC why to use something different? Hub accepts 12-14V of operation. This means that you can plug unregulated 12V power from a battery.
