Adder’s next generation USB, video and audio extender delivers sharp, bright and high resolution video images and high quality audio at distances up to 300m (1000ft) over a single CATx cable.
The ADDERLink X-USB PRO has been designed to provide industry-leading video clarity, compatibility and high rack densities.
Video
VGA resolutions of 1920 x 1200 are achievable at 300 meters (1000ft). This is achievable by including a variable noise filter which overcomes issues introduced by increased gain as the length of the cable increases over 200 meters.
Video compensation
A Multi-pole compensation technique is used enable superb video quality at maximum distance over a single cable. For the first time, adjustment can be made for cable type and cable length with further color skew compensation and gain adjustment to ensure crystal clear images, all from the receiver’s keyboard.
Local feed through port
A local feed through port is provided for audio and video so a local console can be used.
USB powered Transmitter
The transmitter is powered via it’s USB port to reduce the need for external supplies. There is an option for an external power supply if the USB port has insufficient power.
Dual user configuration
Two X-USB PRO units can be linked to a single computer so two users can access the system. When using two sets of X-USB PRO modules to allow two users to access a single computer the arbitration between the users is handled by the USB sub-system of the computer. This means that both users can control the computer at exactly the same time and the resulting keyboard and mouse influences will be an amalgam of the two inputs.
Emulated 2 page DDC EDID
This extender supports full two page DDC EDID. Some high performance video cards require the two page data or they will not deliver optimal performance.
USB support
The X-USB extends USB 2.0 (low and full speed) allowing all USB compatible accessories (including isochronous devices) to be extended. The receiver unit has a built in 4 port USB hub to enable a complete desktop to be located remotely, including a keyboard, monitor, mouse, disk drive, flash memory stick, webcam, and any other device that would normally be plugged into your computer’s USB port.
