PowerPad8S at a glance

1
The PowerPad8S has been designed primarily for
desktop use, being highly compact and quiet. It
provides 10 Watts of charging power to each of
its 8 USB2.0 ports, allowing mobile devices to be
charged quickly, safely and reliably. All ports can
be controlled using Cambrionix software to allow
charging and/or data transfer while monitoring
important port and device information.
The PowerPad8S can charge attached USB devices
without using a local computer and our intelligent
charging algorithm allows almost any device to
be charged at its optimum rate (up to 2.1A per
port). The firmware can be up-dated to allow
new charging profiles to be added, ensuring the
PowerPad8S can charge the latest devices.
The PowerPad8S is supplied with an external power
supply to minimize its desktop footprint. It is ready
to charge out-of-the-box and to sync devices when
attached to a host computer.
When a local (host) computer is attached, the
host can control operation of the ports using
freely available software. Devices can be charged,
