Ask HN: How do you analyze USB-C (hubs)?

2 pointsby sprainedanklesabout 4 years ago
I need to vet existing USB-C hubs for the following application:<p>USB-C Smartphone &lt;- [ USB Hub ] ...<p>[ USB Hub ] USB-A -&gt; USB-C Storage medium (2x)<p>I need the (android) phone to be able to mount these two USB-C devices (which, unfortunately, require USB-A -&gt; USB-C connections) at the same time. The current solution is _slow_ to mount and sometimes fails completely.<p>I can&#x27;t control the USB hardware of the phone and the connected devices, but I can control the hub selection. I&#x27;m looking for tips re: USB hardware&#x2F;software testing procedures.<p>In the short term, I need to choose a commercial hub, but in the long term, will design and build a custom hub. Recommended resources + techniques in the vast world of USB would be greatly appreciated!
