Can we use the MEGA4 with a older Raspberry Pi (e.g. 3A+).
I need to power some devices, with extra power input.
Only USB 2.0 needed and uhubctl (without UUGears custom firmware). Is that possible?

Stacking is not a requirement.

@mmoollllee It is possible. We are aware that MEGA4 can also work as a USB 2.0 PPPS hub.

That means we can buy it, plug it to the RPi and use uhubctl to Switch power of the single USB ports? No additional steps required?

@mmoollllee Your knowledge to uhubctl and PPPS will be required.
Just for your information, MEGA4's software is just a wrapper of uhubctl, and we did test MEGA4 with USB 2 extension cable.
We can only confirm MEGA4 is a correctly implemented USB hub that supports PPPS on USB 3 as well as USB 2.
