USB 3.2 Gen1 HUB Gigabit ETH HAT

This is a driver-free 3 ports USB 3.2 Gen1 Hub HAT for Raspberry Pi, also with a Gigabit Ethernet port, providing more USB/network capability to your Pi, make it easy to connect more USB devices and network devices. The HAT features a standard Raspberry Pi 40PIN GPIO extension header, when working with Raspberry Pi 4, the USB 3.2 Gen1 ports is able to provide up to 5 Gbps data rate, which means 10 times faster than USB 2.0.

Features

  • 3x USB 3.2 Gen1 ports, compatible with USB 3.0 / 2.0 /1.1
  • 1x Gigabit Ethernet port, 1000M/100M/10M compatible
  • Onboard external USB-C 5V DC power port, ensures a more stable power supply
  • 1x power indicator and 3x USB port indicators, easy to check the operating status
  • Driver-free, plug, and play, compatible with OS including Windows, Mac OS, Linux, and Android
  • Purpose-made for Raspberry Pi 4, compatible with other Raspberry Pi versions as well

Expected Result

Take Raspberry Pi 4B as an example

  • Insert the module to 40PIN GPIO of Raspberry Pi 4B. Connect the USB interface of USB HUB to Raspberry Pu by the USB 3.0 Adapter.
  • Connect 5V power supply to the POWER ONLY port.
  • Connect USB devices to USB ports *USB1~UBS4), the corresponding LED will turn on for indicating.

Working with Raspberry Pi

  1. Hardware Preparation
    • Raspberry Pi 4B x1
    • USB 3.2 Gen1 HUB Gigabit ETH HAT x1
    • USB 3.0 Adapter x1 (You also use USB3,0 cable)
    • USB 3.0 SSD x1

  2. Configure Rasberry Pi
    • Enter the root directory of Pi cd ../..
    • Enter the directory of USB3.0 SSD cd media/pi/xxx (xxx is the name of the disk)
    • Free memory Sudo sh -c “sync && echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches”
    • Copy 2G data to the SSD disk. dd if=/dev/zero of=./test_write count=2000 bs=1024kLadda USB 3 2 Gen1 HUB Gigabit ETH HAT- fig 1• Copy 2G data to the Raspberry Pi dd if=./test_write of=/dev/null count=2000 bs=1024k

  3. Working with Ubuntu (Raspberry Pi)
    • Search disk in menu->Enter->Open the disk • Choose the correct disk and click the Benchmark Partition option in the Menu
    • Click Start Benchmark,Check to Perform write-benchmark. and keep other default settings. • Input the user password and authorization. • Test

Working in Windows PC

  1. Connect the USB port ot USB3.0 of PC, and you can copy file to SSD
    • Copy file to the PC • Copy file to the portable SSD

  2. Connect the USB to USB3.0 Port and connect four phones at the same time

  3.  Connect the HUB to USB3.0 Port, and connect the network (The cable and router should support the Gigabit network)Ladda USB 3 2 Gen1 HUB Gigabit ETH HAT- fig11Document
