USB HUB USB hub testing was performed by attaching the device adapter to the upstream port of a Belkin 4-port hub, as can be seen in the photos below. Then, a multi-function printer and digital camera were attached to the hub. This provided wireless access to all devices from a laptop. When existing and returning back to the room, all devices became available for access. Performance was not affected by the existence of multiple devices, and depended on the specific type of device con

At the same time, content can be synchronized wirelessly with iTunes installed on a PC placed at the other side of the room. To test iPod connectivity, 100 MB of MP3 music files (23 songs) were downloaded from the web to
