1. In a nutshell, what does this feature do?  It offers the ability to power on/off USB ports via software.

2. Why was this feature created?  For safety reasons, because disconnecting the PlusPower USB cables from the 12V/24V ports can make sparks/arches.

3. What model Hubports are compatible?  Only "PlusPower" Hubport models.  More specifically, only Compact (/c) or PCI card PlusPower Hubport models.
