Different platforms—such as x86 industrial PCs, ARM-based SoCs, or custom-designed boards—depend on USB subsystems in different ways, and the role of the hub may vary accordingly.\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">Besides considering whether it supports USB 3.0 backward compatibility with USB 2.0, the architecture design of the controller itself should also be evaluated. Taking four-port hub controllers like the TUSB8041RGCR as an example, their internal scheduling mechanisms and port architecture design often directly affect system performance when multiple devices are operating simultaneously at different speeds. Furthermore, the flexibility of the upstream and downstream port configurations will also impact the system&#8217;s future expansion capabilities.\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;\">Viewing the hub’s role from a system-level perspective often helps identify potential integration issues early, rather than discovering them during later development stages.\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>\u003Cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #ba3838;\">2.
