Eaton U280‑010‑ST 10‑Port USB Charging Station 96W

Overview :

The Eaton U280‑010‑ST is a high‑density USB charging station designed for IT operations, classrooms, and workspace environments where simultaneous charging of multiple mobile devices is required. It provides a centralized power hub for tablets, smartphones, laptops and other USB‑powered equipment without a computer interface, simplifying device provisioning and daily operations.

This charging station delivers up to 96 W of total output power through ten USB‑A ports, each capable of supplying up to 5 V at 2.4 A per port, supporting the USB Battery Charging (BC) specification v1.2 for optimized charging performance. The unit incorporates built‑in safeguards including overcurrent, overvoltage, and thermal protection to maintain safe charging under full‑load conditions. The external AC adapter supports 100‑240 V input for global deployment.

The U280‑010‑ST is typically deployed in classrooms, training labs, conference rooms, and shared workspaces where multiple users need to charge devices simultaneously from a single point. It is well suited to environments without individual USB power outlets or where cable management and device organization are priorities.

From an integration perspective, the device is a standalone charger requiring only AC power and USB cables to function; it does not provide power distribution features beyond USB charging or interface with network power management systems. The compact form factor allows desktop placement or integration into charging carts and furniture with minimal footprint.

A practical deployment example includes centralizing the charging of a class set of tablets in a training room. Devices can be simultaneously charged and organized using adjustable storage brackets while plugged into the U280‑010‑ST, eliminating the need for multiple wall adapters and individual power strips.

This unit should not be used as a primary power source for equipment that requires more than USB power delivery or where managed power distribution, UPS‑level protection, or networked monitoring is required.
