Firmware

The firmware can be kept up to date using our Cambrionix Connect software. As part of delivering an easy user experience, our Cambrionix Connect application is now a set-and-forget solution. The Cambrionix Connect application will discover your USB hub’s firmware and present an update for you.

To update the firmware, first, go to the firmware section of Cambrionix Connect. Here you can see the available Firmware versions to install to the hub.

The current firmware version on the hub is displayed in the firmware section alongside the hub's name. This will appear red if a newer version is available or green if it is the most up to date.
