I assume that by “1-wire hub” you are referring to a device that allows you to access several distinct physical 1-wire busses as a single logical bus. I think the hub as a point in which a single 1-wire bus “transparently” branches out into several physical distinct busses.
In some cases you do not need a hub, because if you connect multiple bus masters to a single owserver host, the “root” view will show you all devices found under the different busses: /26.xxx /26.yyy /bus.0/26.xxx /bus.1/26.yyy In my opinion you need a 1-wire hub only if the physical location at which the different 1-wire buses branch is far from the location at which your owserver host is located, but again with the availability of low-cost single board computers, it could be easier to place an owserver host at the branching location. This said, iButtonLink sells the linkhube: https://www.ibuttonlink.com/products/linkhube <https://www.ibuttonlink.com/products/linkhube> (which is a bit expensive, in my opinion.) The unipi product does not seem to be a “1-wire hub” in the sense defined above, as already noted by Jan.
