What external power is required by the NI USB-4065?

I'm assuming that the NI USB-4065 does not derive its power from the USB interface.  I have not been able to find any documentation for the type of power interface to this device.  I would like to find out about the power requirements (voltage and current) and also the mechanical aspects of this power interface (connector type).

Why would you assume that? It says it's bus powered right on the main product page.

 

On the same page (click on 'Resources') are links to manuals. Pretty certain the specs were on the CD that came with the device.

Dennis is right.  The USB-4065 is bus-powered.  In other words, it is powered solely by the USB cable that is also used for communication with the device.  The power consumption is within the specifications allowed for USB and doesn't require any sort of special hub or anything.  If you need more specifics on power consumption, check out the device specifications.
