      1. We conducted a comparative test on the VOXL2-mini USB3 port HW issue as follows.

      1)Test equipment

      • VOXL2+5GModem (USB3 port) and VOXL2-mini (USB3 port)
      • Arducam 13MP IMX258 OIS Motorized Focus USB 3.0 Camera Module

      2)Test results
      In conclusion, after removing the VOXL2-mini USB3.0 cable, the same problem appears as a result of testing. (Only 1280x720@10fps is supported.)

      b. VOXL2-mini (USB3 port)

      2. Question

      1. When will the board with the VOXL2-mini AC Capacity problem solved be released?
        (We need to use the USB3 port. We need to purchase 3 units right now, but we are unable to purchase them due to the AC Cap issue.)
      2. After purchasing VOXL2-mini, is it possible to replace the product if an improved version comes out?

      Thanks,

        @Jskim Do you need VOXL 2 Mini? VOXL 2 is designed for expansion of peripherals, VOXL 2 Mini is designed to be as small as possible. We do not plan to change VOXL 2 Mini.

          Hi @Jskim
          Sorry for all the confusion here with the USB3 port issue on V2 Mini.
          I am conducting some tests this week to ensure we can communicate clear and correct instructions how to remedy this on your side.
          Please give me a few more days. We know it may be a blocker for you for some use cases and resolutions, so I am making it a priority.
          Stay Tuned.
          Thanks!

            I hope you find a solution.
            We are already using V2 for VTOL drones, and are planning to use V2-mini for other large-scale projects.

            Thank you,

                    Hi @Jskim
                    We are happy to report our testing was successful.
                    I have documented the process where you can modify MCBL-00022-2 and add the series caps for your self to unblock your USB 3 speeds:

                    Hope this helps!!
                    Let us know how your testing progresses.
