ABSTRACT:
A bus station in the form of a hardware dongle, operates in conjunction with a USB Device running suitable software. When the bus station determines that a bus host is connected to a first bus communication port thereof, it acts as a transceiver to allow conventional bus communications between said bus host and a bus device connected to a second bus communication port thereof. When the bus station determines that a bus device running suitable software is connected to the first bus communication port thereof, it acts as an alternate host to allow bus communications between said bus device connected to the first bus communication port and a bus device connected to a second bus communication port.
