| The
USB Rover™ 1650/2650 is designed for end user applications.
It provides all the flexibility of extended range USB in a ready-to-use
package. The USB Rover 2650 is optimized for applications where
two devices, such as a keyboard and mouse, must be operated remotely.
The USB Rover 1650 provides support for a single remote device or
hub.
USB Rover products operate over standard Category 5
UTP cable (the same wiring used in Ethernet). The technology behind
the product requires no additional software for either the computer
or the target devices.
USB Rover products are composed of two separate
units: the Local Extender (LEX) and the Remote Extender (REX). Conventional
USB cables are used to connect the LEX unit to the host computer
and to connect the remote USB device to the REX unit. Category 5
UTP cabling is used to connect the LEX and REX units over a distance
of up to 50 m/164 ft.
The USB Rover 1650/2650 is powered from USB and delivers enough
power at the remote unit to drive most USB devices.
