whatt's the max number of devices a USB port can have? and what connector is it/use and?

Question

and..what type is it? a parallel..serial..?

Answer 1

USB is neither parallel nor serial. That's the point! it's "something else"... besides, only one device can be connected to each port. If "the device" is a "USB Hub", you can have 4 "HUBbed" devices on each port. That's:



1 USB Port <- 1 HUB <- 4 devices

1 USB Port <- 1 HUB <- 4 devices



and NOT:



1 USB Port <- 1 HUB <- 1 HUB <- 7 devices



get it?



all in all, USB supports up to 127 devices in one system (that's "motherboard" btw).

cheers.

Answer 2

127 would be great, but in reality no one really makes pass-through usb devices that are POWERED, so there's no friggin way to ever get 127 devices on one port!!!!!! idiots. that's always bugged me.

Answer 3
