Thrustmaster is launching the versatile T-X3 Charge Hub for PS3 which will give 3 additional USB powered ports to the gaming console. Plus, it acts as an attractive space saving stacking storage and charging unit for Playstation®3 controllers.

Convenient Playing and Charging

As current incarnations of the Playstation® 3 come with only 2 USB ports, the T-X3 Charge Hub solution ensures that users can get the most from their gaming console, for example,  to play with up to 4 controllers or peripherals attached to the console at the same time (as you can with the original 4 port Playstation®3 console). Also, the USB port is fully powered which means no risk of power loss; each peripheral will perform to its maximum potential. The T-X3 is also compatible with all current peripherals and controllers for Playstation®3.

The T-X3 is also completely ‘Plug and Charge’; there is no need for any additional configuration. Simply connect the device to the back of the console via a dual head connector which joins the console’s power supply with the USB device! No clutter of additional cables.

The T-X3 also features 2 charge connectors that allow users to charge the Sixaxis and Dualshock 3 controllers even when the console is turned off. The controllers sit neatly in their cradles which are vertically stacked, space saving and attractive. With high consumption requirements of the new vibration feature regular and convenient charging will be essential for lengthy game play.
