Raspberry Pi A+
Raspberry Pi A+ has the same mounting holes with B+ model, so the process to
mount the USB hub under it will be quite similar. The A+ model has its only USB port
on different position, so we could not make the USB data connection with pogo pins,
and a USB cable will be necessary to finish the connection.
Different than the B+ model, Raspberry Pi A+ supports back-powering via USB port.
So it is not necessary to use those pogo pins for back-powering. Just make sure to
place the jumper to “power link” position and only connect a power supply to the USB
hub, then Raspberry Pi A+ can be back-powered by the USB hub.
If you don’t want the back-powering, just put the jumper to the other side and connect
two power supplies to USB hub and Raspberry Pi accordingly.
