Hub USB Exsys EX-1163HMS — 4 porte con protezione ESD 15 kV, kit di montaggio su guida DIN

Exsys EX-1163HMS is a compact 4-port USB hub designed for industrial and embedded environments. The device offers reliable USB connectivity expansion while incorporating 15 kV electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection to reduce the risk of port damage in electrically noisy settings. Supplied with a DIN-rail mounting kit, this hub can be securely installed in control cabinets or on standard mounting rails to simplify integration into machine and automation systems.

Advantages

The hub combines four downstream USB ports with high-level ESD protection to maintain reliable operation of attached peripherals such as sensors, HMIs, barcode scanners and industrial PCs. Its DIN-rail mounting capability provides a consistent mechanical attachment method for industrial installations, and the compact form factor reduces space requirements inside control enclosures. Built for continuous operation, the unit minimizes downtime related to connector failures caused by static discharges.

Suitable for

• Expanding USB connections for industrial PCs and embedded controllers
• Connecting sensors, HMIs, barcode scanners and serial-to-USB converters
• Installation in control cabinets, switch cabinets and on DIN rails
• Environments with potential electrostatic events or electrical noise

Key specifications

• Number of downstream USB ports: 4
• ESD protection level: 15 kV
• Mounting: DIN-rail kit included for secure installation
• Intended use: industrial and embedded applications
• Form factor: compact design for installation in control enclosures

How to use

Mount the hub on a standard DIN rail using the supplied kit and secure it according to cabinet layout and cable routing practices. Connect the host USB interface from the industrial PC or controller to the hub’s upstream port, then attach peripherals to the four downstream USB ports. Ensure ground and shielding practices are followed in the cabinet to maximize the effectiveness of ESD protection. Power requirements and specific wiring depend on the host system; follow the host device documentation when connecting power and data lines.

Recommendations

Place the hub inside a grounded control enclosure and route USB cables away from high-voltage or high-current cables to reduce interference. Regularly inspect connector seating and cable strain reliefs to maintain reliable connections; replace damaged cables immediately to preserve the ESD protection function.
