USB hub
A USB hub allows multiple USB devices to be plugged into the same port. USB hubs are typically inexpensive devices and can either provide external power to devices, or can be unpowered and simply facilitate data transfer rather than power to external devices. USB hubs are limited to the overall data rate of the port they're plugged into, and are also limited by the overall speed of the USB bus. USB hubs provide a great solution for laptops, or other devices where external ports are limited and can't be added easily.
