The LINK people claim their hubs have better electrical properties. USB is
slightly faster, but in truth, DS9097U, DS9490 and LINK all seem to work well.
 
If you mean the DS2409 hubs, I think they are a little flaky. I wouldn't use
them just to partition your netwrok.
 
OWFS can handle any number of adapters, including multiple USB adapters. If you
want to partition your network, use multiple adapters.
 
You don't explain your application or topology, but OWFS can allow you to
arrange the wiring almost arbitrarily and then create a logical arrangement as
you wish.

Subject: [Owfs-developers] which 1-wire interface to use



I know this is not directly related to OWFS, but I thought you folks are
the people to ask.

I will have 2-3 computers handling 75+ 1-wire sensors total. Which
interface should I use? There will be no parasitic power devices. Also,
what would using hubs buy me in setting up this kind of network over just
wiring them together?

thanks,
jerry
