Nowadays there are 5-port switches which are so small you can easily put them inside the computer case (let the cables go through some appropriate hole in the case). They are also very cheap. With a little bit of tweaking and soldering, you might even be able to connect it to the computer's power supply, so you don't need an additional external power supply and power socket. But don't try this if you're not familiar with voltages and how power supplies work, or if you're unsure which end of the soldering iron is the hot one. ;-) Best regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, secnetix GmbH & Co.
