ABSTRACT:
A hub for expanding peripheral device connectivity in a computer system is provided. The hub includes a hub body which has a front side, a back side, and peripheral surfaces. The peripheral surfaces include a top peripheral surface, a bottom peripheral surface and a pair of side peripheral surfaces. A plurality of connection ports are defined in the bottom peripheral surface. Each of the plurality of connection ports enables the connection of cables. A stand is defined by a shaft that extends between a first shaft end and a second shaft end. The first and second shaft ends attach to the hub body at each of the pair of side peripheral surfaces to support the hub body in a semi-vertical orientation. The stand includes an integral loop for holding the cables that extend away from the plurality of connection ports.
