[LUG] OT: USB hub

 

I hate hardware.

I've dug out a no-name 4-port USB 2.0 powered hub which is not attached to its power adapter. Any ideas on how I can work out the voltage and polarity either from first principles or the following clues?

Text on the case:

Top:

USB 2.0 4 PORT HUB
H. SPD (next to an LED)
PWR (next to an LED)

Bottom:
Note
Keep away from water
Do not drop
S/N: 000558
Made in Taiwan

That is it. I'm not kidding. That. Is. It.

The power socket looks like it's expecting a 1/4-inch hollow-tip jack.
