Hello,
I want to add a powered USB hub for my Pi, and power it with the hub. I was thinking of this hub.
Do I have to add a USB > Micro USB cable to power it?

Re: Powering with USB hub
I suppose it isn't "back powering" then?
Re: Powering with USB hub
It is not possible to power it only by connecting it to the USB port right?

HI,
Best wishes, Ivan Zilic,
Use its micro USB connector for supplying it. Otherwise, you bypass internal protection circuit.Preator wrote:It is not possible to power it only by connecting it to the USB port right?
