How can I identify which items in Device Manager indicate actual, physical USB Ports?

I usually use USBTreeView utility to see all USB connections, and then plug a USB device and see which port it will appear on.
On PCs, USB 'buses' are referred to as hubs. Identify your USB devices in Sound, Video and Game Controllers (or alternatively directly on the USB hubs) You can have a look at Device Manager-right click the usb device and find the port location.
