    Hello,
    I read the specification of the used V1605B wherein is said that there is support for:

    • Ethernet:2x 10GbE
    • USB:1x USB 2.0, 1x USB 3.1 Gen1, 4x USB 3.1 Gen2
    • SATA:2

    what differs from the specification in the documentation for the Bolt (Gear):
    1. [​IMG] Mass Storage:
      1. SATA III 6Gbit/s standard connector
      2. SSD SATA module's Slot M.2 Socket 2 Key B 2260 (featured also PCI-e x2)
      3. NVMe modules Slot M.2 Socket 3 Key M 2280 (PCI-e x4 Gen 3 interface)
    2. [​IMG] Networking:
      1. Gigabit Ethernet Realtek RTL8111G
      2. Slot M.2 Socket 1 Key E 2230 for optional WiFi/BT combo
    3. [​IMG] USB 2x USB 3 Type-A:
      1. 2x USB Type-C:
        • USB 3.1
        • DisplayPort Alternate Mode
        • Dual Role Port (DRP) USB Power Delivery (USB-PD) 3.0


    It is clear to me that lanes to the CPU/SoC are used differently, e.g. for NVMe but still it is not clear to me which speed can be expected at what interface.
    The block diagram is not very informative.

    looks like I cannot edit my first post, so:

    I would like to know what speed according to the official specification, see below if each USB is used up to its limits.

    so it is
    USB 3.2 Gen 2×1
    at each port?
    So overall throughput via USB is up to 10 Gbit/s (4x USB 3.2 Gen 2×1)?

    Generic accessories sold from a store, including UDOO, such as USB hub may come from various sources depend on parts availability and evolution. I don't have such part and I am uncertain the future product (even same SKU) can be exactly the same.
    What I can say is that the ones I have one uses Renesys (05e3:0617), one uses GL3520 (and may be in the future uses GL3530 or lower part GL3510), one uses Renesys (05e3:0626).
