4.3 Scalability –
Syncing more than 8 devices
Each unit Sync up to
8 64
If you wish to synchronise more than 15 devices,
multiple PowerPad15S can be connected together
(either in a star topology or daisy-chained) to allow
PORTS DEVICES
more devices to be managed from a single host
computer simultaneously.
Each PowerPad15S needs to be connected
to mains power individually and the first
PowerPad15S in the chain should be
connected to the local computer through
the PowerPad15S' host port.
Eight additional PowerPad15S can be
attached to the downstream USB ports of
the first PowerPad15S by their host ports as
shown in the graphic across.
This star topology allows you to connect up
to 64 devices for charging and syncing from
a single computer.
Star topology
Alternatively, a simpler daisy-chain
arrangement can be used for connecting
two PowerPad15S hubs, allowing 29
devices to be managed from a single host
computer.
