USB on cape for beaglebone black

Hello

I am trying to add a USB hub to a cape currently designing for Beaglebone Black.. I am trying to find a way to connect the cape HUB to the to the device USB hub; but it seams like P8 and P9 dose not have anything related to USB. And I see others connect their capes using external wires to the Beaglebone USB sockets. Is there any workaround to reach the device USB bus without the wires? Or even to disable the device USB hub and connect mine directly to the cpu?

Best Regards

Mahammad

    It's not possible to interface to USB via the cape connectors.

    USB is highly sensitive to signal integrity issues...connecting un-terminated interface signals to the cape connector (in addition to the socket itself) would very likely cause problems on the bus.
