This item does not require a power source nor does it come with a plug. Thank you for your interest in this item and for your question.

No, you connect the input from the stereo and the outlet to the various rooms, I used all 4 rooms. The device works to keep the extra room speakers from blowing the amp

It does not have a power switch. I want to say it does draw power when there are no devices connected, but not sure.

Yes it does need an outlet, but it works wonderfully...This is our 3rd one and I don't know how we could live without one.

Nope. It needs to be powered. I could only get one item at a time to work. If I had 2 or more things plugged in, it wouldn't work at all.

Hi. With this device, you do not need any external power. The device brings it all included and takes what it needs directly from their computer. It works excellently. Regards. Vincent.

No, it is wired in directly, so a source of power must be present but a cord with plug could be added.

This unit is USB powered, does not need to be plugged to an electric outlet. The computer this device it connected to will power the unit using the USB cable.

Yes it does. This unit is not battery powered and must be plugged into a wall outlet to function.

Yes. Keep in mind though that you'll probably need to use two USB cable spots to power the device. It's unusual but works fine.

No, it actually comes with a power cord. You connect the cord to the bottom of the front of the device and plug it into the wall. I prefer it to battery powered.

No. The power adapter is only needed if the devices connected to it require more power than the port on the computer can provide.
