Technical overview

  • Connection: Insert the HAT into the Raspberry Pi GPIO header; connect its USB connector to a USB port on the Pi with a micro-USB cable.
  • Interfaces: 1x RJ45 (ETH), 3x USB (USB1–USB3), plus a USB connector for linking to the Raspberry Pi.
  • Indicators: PWR LED lights when the Pi is powered on; ACT blinks during network activity; D1–D3 light up when devices are connected to USB1–USB3.
  • Network connection: Connect a network cable to the RJ45 port; the Ethernet interface then appears in the system.
  • USB devices: External USB devices can be plugged into USB1 through USB3.
  • Resources: Schematic, 3D drawing, and box assembly guide are available as files.
  • Compatibility note: Works with Raspberry Pi models that have a free USB port; specific model details are not specified.
  • Wiring: No additional cabling needed except the micro-USB cable between Pi and HAT.

Commands and examples – verify before use:  

dtoverlay=dwc2,dr_mode host

Notes and version constraints

  • CM4: USB 2.0 is disabled by default; add `dtoverlay=dwc2,dr_mode host` to config.txt to enable it.
  • Raspberry Pi Zero: If the USB port is configured as a wireless network card, the USB hub will not be recognized.
  • Ethernet at USB boot: Some chips have dual functions and act as a virtual CD-ROM during reset, causing loss of Ethernet recognition; a driver switch may be needed.
  • USB troubleshooting: Check for poor contact at the USB connector; connect the hub directly to a computer to test recognition.
  • No information on supported Raspberry Pi models, power consumption, or warranty in the source document.
