Okay, so you want a hub that provides 240W per port and supports 40Gbps per port, right?

Are you willing to pay the hundreds of dollars that’s going to cost?

Cost to create a hub should have been a consideration of the spec designers.

I'm involved (on the very edge) of C++ standards, and we often reject proposals because it would be too hard to implement, or too hard to teach. The proposal itself would be a useful, but the costs are too high.
