HD3SS3212-Q1: Must the host always be connected to port A?

Genius 17485 points
Part Number: HD3SS3212-Q1

Tool/software:

Hi Experts,

When designing a custom board with the HD3SS3212RKSTQ1 as a PCIe mux and demux, according to the datasheet the HD3SS3212RKSTQ1 is a bidirectional mux or demux. However, all the typical applications shown in section 9 of the datasheet as well as examples online only show the host connected to port A.

We wanted to confirm if the host/system must be connected to Port A? or can we connect the host to port B or C?

Thank you in advance.

Regards,
Archie A.
