The ST-Lab 4-Port USB 2.0 PCMCIA/Cardbus Adapter is a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 adapter that upgrades notebook computers to the new and faster USB standard. This card is designed to work with mice, keyboards, PC cameras, and all other USB enabled devices. It is 40 times faster than USB 1.1 and 20% faster than Firewire (IEEE-1394). Each of the USB 2.0 port transfers data at 480Mbps (Megabits per second), making it ideal for external storage, backup, networking and digital video.

ST-Lab 4-Port USB 2.0 PCMCIA/Cardbus Adapter is compatible with USB 2.0 standard and is backward compatible with USB 1.0 and USB 1.1 products. This gives you the ability to connect all of your USB 1.x devices to the 4-Port USB 2.0 Cardbus adapter. Each port detects whether the connected device is USB 1.x or USB 2.0 and automatically runs the device at the correct speed.
