• Architectural Adapter Plate (AAP) model — The USB Extender Plus AAP transmitter
and receiver fit into a double-space AAP opening and is wall mountable. It can be
mounted to a one-gang junction box if desired.
• Decorator-Style model — The USB Extender Plus D is a decorator-style wall plate
that fits into a one-gang junction box.
NOTE: The transmitter and receiver pair work with unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables. However, to ensure FCC Class A and CE
compliance, STPcables are required.
Features
• Point-to-point long distance transmission — Extends USB peripherals up to
330 feet (100 meters) on one CAT 5/5e/6/7 cable for point-to-point applications.
• 1:N pairing over the network — One transmitter can be connected to up to four
receivers.
• Extended transmission distance through network connection — Up to five
gigabit network switches can be connected between the transmitter and receiver to
increase the signal distance to up to 1980 feet (600 meters).
• Supports USB 3.0, 2.0, 1.1, and 1.0 devices — Supports bulk, control, interrupt, and
isochronous transfers as defined by the USB specification.
• Provides data transfer rates up to 480 Mbps — Allows high speed transfer from
thumb drives and other mass storage devices.
• Integrated four-port hub — The receiver has a four-port integrated USB hub, which
provides 5 volts, 500 mA on each port. Allows simultaneous connection to multiple
peripheral devices such as the Extron Annotator 300, mass storage devices, keyboards,
mice, or other human interface devices (HID).
• Peripheral emulation — Offers increased system reliability by emulating a continuous
connection between the host and an HID-compliant keyboard and mouse.
• Real-time status LED indicators for troubleshooting and monitoring — Front and
rear panel LED indicators provide visual confirmation of port activity between an active
host and each connected peripheral device.
• Rack and furniture mountable — Low-profile, 1-inch (2.5 cm) high, quarter rack wide
metal enclosures enable the extenders to be installed discreetly, such as beneath a
table or inside a lectern.
• Included power supplies — An energy-efficient, external, universal power supply,
part number 70-775-01 (28-071-57LF), is provided with each unit. The power supply
provides worldwide power compatibility with high demonstrated reliability and low
power consumption.
• Remote configuration and control — The transmitter and receiver can be configured
via Extron SIS (Simple Instruction Set) commands issued from the computer to the front
panel 2.5 mm TRS Config port of the extenders.
• Choice of rack-mountable and architectural form factors — Available in a rack
mountable metal enclosure, a dual AAP frame version, and a one-gang decorator-style
wall plate for easy integration into a variety of environments.
• Extends human interface devices — The USB Extender Plus HID-only models
extend the usable distance of smart card readers and USB human interface peripheral
devices that do not require special USB device drivers, including a standard keyboard,
mouse, hub, and other devices.
