Title: Can USB 3 hub support mix of usb3 and usb2 devices ?
Post by: tkafafi on March 06, 2012, 10:21:16 am

Will the hub just drop down to usb2 for all devices ? Or will it allow the USB 3 devices to operate at superspeed ?

A USB 3 hub is a SuperSpeed hub and a USB 2 hub compunded. The 2 hubs operate more or less independently.
