Connection diagram

This is the recommended configuration of the Raspberry Pi and keyboard and mouse. The hub on the keyboard ensures easy access to USB drives, and the mouse cable can be short and tidy. The mouse cable is still long enough to use it in your left hand as well.
Notes: It is important that the power supply is connected to the Raspberry Pi, and the keyboard is powered by the Raspberry Pi. If the power adapter is connected to the keyboard with the Raspberry Pi powered by the keyboard, then the keyboard will not operate correctly.
