  • Patent number: 7493502
    Abstract: A remote access power (“RAP”) hub for kiosks and information booths with multiple peripherals. The RAP hub provides power at different levels to accommodate different electronic devices and peripherals. The RAP hub also acts as a powered USB hub for connecting multiple USB devices to the devices and peripherals. The RAP hub further has communications functionality so that signals can be transmitted through a network to the hub for controlling the devices and peripherals remotely. The RAP hub is an all-in-one power hub with various power outputs and remote access command. It is designed to support and manage a number of devices and peripherals while avoiding multiple power adapters. A connector block allows the routing of power within multifunction devices, thus eliminating the need for special-ordered wiring harness.
