Instead, how about just a power supply cable going to a data/power distribution unit, and from here short cables to the corresponding devices?

WHY SHOULD I BUY THESE DISTRIBUTORS WHEN I CAN BUY SIMILAR HUBS WITH 7 OR EVEN 10 PORTS ON AMAZON FOR ABOUT $50?

 

    Each port delivers a current of up to 8 amps. Other hubs cannot support this.
    Switchable USB ports. Each USB port can be controlled and turned on and off by our standalone software. (power + data). Other hubs cannot do this.
    Pegasus supports INDI/ASCOM switches. You can control the hub via your image editing software.
    Supports industrial-grade temperatures. You won't find a hub that can operate below 0 degrees Celsius (32 Fahrenheit).
    If you check the specifications of each hub, you will find that the operating temperature is between 0 and 40 degrees Celsius. All of these hubs are designed to operate in your cozy room and not for use in the mountains or outdoors where the temperature can drop quickly, especially on winter nights. If your hub works below this temperature, it's pure luck.
