Introduction

U3H41S2210S provides two downstream USB 3.0 ports and two SATA device ports. It is ideally suited for tailgate interface applications for two SATA drives and two USB devices. It allows SATA drives and USB devices to be connected to USB 3.0 serial bus in a plug-and-play fashion. U3H41S2210S provides a cost-effective solution for system integrator to integrate two SATA drives and two USB devices into their system through the USB 3.0 serial bus.

Technical Specifications

U3H41S2210S integrates two key components:

1). USB 3.0 HUB (Four USB 3.0)
2). Two USB 3.0 to SATA Bridge Controllers
