HD3SS3202: Cascading 2x HD3SS3202 for USB 3.0 5Gig

Part Number: HD3SS3202
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMUXHS4212

Hi,

I need to design a 4:1 USB 3.0 MUX (without redriver, since it will be connected directly to a HUB). 

Can I cascade 2x HD3SS3202 to do that?

We already use this part to do a 2:1 USB 3.0 MUX.

My concerns are:

1-) Bandwidth issue / signal degradation, but it is not a USB 10G signal.

2-) The AC caracteristic of the USB 3.0 signal with cascading architecture. Do I need to add extra components between the 2x MUXes? (like another AC caps)

Best Regards,
Denis Alain, Eng.
