Do you have more USB powered peripherals laying around your house than you have USB ports to power them? Well then does Cambrionix have a solution for you; their 49-port USB hub.

OK, so maybe it’s not marketed towards those who have a extensive gadget collection, but it’s still damn cool. Cambrionix says that the hub is for professional use, such as test labs or other commercial applications, but I’m sure some consumers can put it to good use.

If you actually want to get your hands on Cambrionix’s 49-port USB hub you’re going to have to pony up £399 or around $660. Don’t forget to add this to the fact that it needs to be connected to a ATX power supply to actually function. Any takers?
