There are a number of hubs that support "star" topology including EDS OW-SERVER-ENET and OW-SERVER-WIFI LinkHUB HobbyBoards Hub DS2482-800 And some in development that I can't disclose. In general, these hubs have 3,4 or 8 channels that are electrically independent but logically combined. (Actual

Why don't you use the DS2482-800 as busmasters?, then you can make a hub for a star configuration. like i did on http://fstab.nl/en/beaglebone, it will work also for the raspberry Nico Jan Kandziora wrote: > Am 17.03.2014 21:14, schrieb Jan Sennesael: >> The layout is: >> >> master -- 8 port
