Podium Hub: The ultimate core for your modular steering wheel
The Podium Hub is the premium core component for the Fanatec® modular steering wheel system.
ALUMINIUM MONOCOQUE
The space frame design surrounds the electronic components for the lightest possible weight. The central hub is created from a single piece of anodised aluminium for maximum strength.
HIGH PERFORMANCE CENTRAL CORE
Integrating a dedicated ARM processor, the Podium Hub is low latency, firmware upgradeable, and supports 10 buttons and dual 16-bit resolution analogue inputs. Additional buttons, axes, and displays can be connected via DataPort-C.
Customisation and Flexibility
Use the Podium Hub to mount wheel rims from Fanatec and other manufacturers, or even full steering wheels. Easily upgrade and customise using Fanatec modular components
WHEEL RIM COMPATIBILITY
The Podium Hub features mounting holes for wheel rims using the 6x70mm or 3x50mm bolt pattern. It is possible to run third-party steering wheels on PC with USB cables as used on OSW Direct Drive for example.
SUPPORTS PODIUM SERIES MODULAR COMPONENTS
The Podium Hub contains connectors for the Podium Advanced Paddle Module, two Universal Hub button clusters, and a DataPort-C connector for attaching Fanatec button or display modules.
Interchangeable Quick Release
The included ClubSport Quick Release Adapter allows you to connect directly to Fanatec CSL, ClubSport, and Podium wheel bases.
Automotive Grade Quick Release
Aluminum body and rigid steel spring provides optimal balance in release mechanism for quick exchange and robust connection.
Interchangeable
The Podium Hub supports an exchangeable Quick Release, so it is ready for future upgrades.

Platforms
- Xbox One®: the Podium Hub is not compatible with Xbox One.
- PC and other Platforms: The specifications of the compatible wheel bases will remain unchanged.
- PS4: The functionality of this product on PS4 can be limited by the capabilities of the console (subject to firmware/OS changes and developer support). The full functionality can only be guaranteed on PC; this is also game-dependent. This product is currently only functional on PS4 using the Podium Racing Wheel F1 via beta driver 356. PS4 compatibility of the PHUB with clusters on the CSL E WB+ will be supported in a future firmware update.
SPECIAL NOTES
- If used as a barebones unit with no button modules connected, the Podium wheel base high torque warning message can be accepted by holding the wheel at 90 degrees, and centre calibration can be performed within the driver.
- Tuning Menu can be accessed via Fanatec Software on PC or via optional button module
- The ClubSport Wheel Base V2, CSL Elite Wheel Base V1, and CSL Elite Wheel Base V1.1 are compatible with the Podium Hub but do not allow Tuning Menu access via the Fanatec software. The Tuning Menu must be accessed via a suitable display/button module connected to the Podium Hub or by attaching a different steering wheel to the wheel base.
