Using SN65LVPE502A in a USB3 device

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SN65LVPE502A

Hello USB experts

I have the  following question:

We want to build a USB3 device which for  some reason has its USB3 connector not on the same PCB than the USB3 device controller.

The boards will be connected using a (high speed ?) board to board connector.

To compensate for the loss in signal quality we thought about adding a USB3 redriver just nearby to the USB3 connector.

In the documentation of the SN65LVPE502A i found no references for such a scenario. 

Is it possible to use the SN65LVPE502A within a USB3 device ?

What happens when the host would also use a SN65LVPE502A  ?

I ask  this question because i tested with two SN65LVPE502CPEVM in series and the USB3 link never worked this way.

Best regards

Mr. HU
