I guess I don't know a hub from a switch box. From what you describe, a hub may be what I need. Do the hubs allow software selection of the active device? What I need to do is break the connection to the computer from the tethered camera. This will allow the camera to function as a camera. Once the usb connection is made, the camera functions are turned but you can then mount the camera as a scsi device. Joel
