USB Root Hubs, also known as Universal Serial Bus Root Hubs, serve as viable communication portals for today's technologically enhanced computers and other electronic devices. USB Root Hubs are both physical and virtual installation ports that can be found on your computer. These ports are used for implementing and installing additional hardware files and components to your computer's hard drive. USB Root Hubs can be utilized several times as long as the port is clear and reinstalled properly for functional reinstatement purposes.
