Title: flush mount usb hub
Post by: jrok96 on March 18, 2020, 07:15:05 pm

hello, I have been looking around for a usb hub/splitter that would flush mount to the side of my pc based arcade that i built. I cant seem to find something that would flush mount and look inconspicuous. Am hoping to find a 4 port hub if possible to use for connecting controllers when needed, and other peripherals like mouse/keyboard etc. If anyone has any leads to something like this I would greatly appreciate some info and pics of how it looks in their build.

You can get flush mount USB extension sockets for fitting to a car dash or whatever. You could have the actual hub inside your cab and connect the extensions to it.

Maybe one of those grommet USB hubs? Designed to mount in a hole drilled in a desk top.
