Kanex DualRole USB3GBIT3X

Overview
This product is a power-leeching liar: hub reports as self-powered,
 * yet both hub and NIC are powered by host VBUS.
 * When auxiliary power supply is used, then downstream ports are
 * switched to sourcing from DC inlet jack J1.

Hardware has capability to detect power supply presence:
 * J1 has a switch pin, leading to U3 (VLI hub controller pin 47)
 * and to Q1 (pin 1. Q1 might be a transistor / logic gate.
 * pin 3 leads to host VBUS (5V), pin 2 leads to ground plane).
 * When DC barrel plug present, J1 switch is OPEN, pin voltage rises to 4.4V from Q1.
 * When NO plug present, J1 switch is CLOSED to ground/0V.

U8 might act as power switch, connect downstream receptacle
 * power pins to one of: upstream USB VBUS, or J1.

Board label
Board label silkscreen mark: "IA-HEB2-H100", "2012-11-19" (likely design date)
 * "1428" in seven segment style (likely circuitboard manufacture date 2014 week 28)
 * MAC address of specimen is 00:24:9b:11:24:e3,
 * which resembles USB serial number 0000249B1124E3.
