Key Features

  • The ability to add up to four Pod devices to a MacLab or PowerLab hardware unit that has no built in Pod support.
  • The necessary switching and power distribution for each Pod.
  • Software-control, the software will periodically scan each Pod input on the Pod Expander to see if a Pod is attached. If it finds one, the Pod will be installed on that channel.
