EE Smart Hub Plus

measterbrook — Fri, 17 Nov 2023 09:28:04 GMT

I have just switched to EE Broadband and they have sent me a Smart Hub Plus. The power plug (the barrel connector that plugs into the back of the router) is different from all previous connectors. It seems to be 3.2mm/1.1mm with a red tip but I cannot find this specified anywhere. I want to power the hub from my 12v UPS, but I would need the right cable and I cannot order one without knowing the exact connector size. The electrical requirements (12v/2.5A) is well specified, but not the connector size. I could cut and splice the EE supplied adaptor but I would prefer to keep this in reserve.

Hi @measterbrook not sure that spares oor more detailed specs are available, but could you use something like a universal adapter such as https://www.amazon.co.uk/EFISH-Multifunctional-Transformer-2A-Electronics-3V-12V-8Plugs/dp/B0829R1GD7?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&smid=A2IMWGP2WXXI37&nis=8&th=1

@measterbrook - I think it's 3.5mm/1.35mm.
