Surface
Surface mounted hubs are designed to be attached to a flat surface. They allow mounting in a fixed position with a minimum of hardware, but they’re harder to relocate than the alternatives.

DIN RAIL
DIN rail hubs can be mounted without a full rack installation. The hub snaps onto the rail. Using a DIN rail to mount several devices keeps them neatly organized and reduces cable tangling.

RACK
Rack Mount hubs fit in a standard 19-inch rack. When an installation has enough equipment to justify rack mounting, it economizes on space while making it easy to rearrange equipment.

DESKTOP
Desktop hubs are popular with home computers. They plug into the computer and stand free. They’re simple and inexpensive, but they add to the clutter on the desk.
