USB-Server Gigabit

Incorporating USB devices such as cameras, measuring instruments, dongles etc. into virtual systems or operating them over longer distances often creates practical problems for integrators and users: USB support for virtualization platforms is usually not sufficiently stable for professional industrial applications, and the cable limitation of approx. 5m is often much too restricting.

The new USB-Server Gigabit from Wiesemann & Theis offers a way to incorporate USB devices such as in AV or measuring technology over the TCP/IP Ethernet. The high-performance CPU core and gigabit network interface allow you to run even data-intensive USB devices remotely. The USB Port Redirector operates as a Windows counterpart to the USB Server. Its implementation as a core driver ensures transparent tunneling of the USB data even without a user login.

The USB-Server Gigabit features 2 USB 2.0 ports and an industrial-grade DIN rail housing. Power can be supplied either via PoE or externally with 24-48VDC. The list price is 298.- Euro plus VAT.

In addition to a no-obligation 30 day test of the devices, W&T offers an interoperability guarantee with the promise to analyze and - if possible - remedy any problems with special USB devices in special environments.
