USB X-TENDER
The X-Tender comes in two different versions (IC169A
and IC169AE). Both versions include a 100–240-VAC
inline power supply with an IEC 320 C7 connector. The
IC169A includes a U.S. power cord. The IC169AE does
not include a power cord.
The only thing you’ll need to make your USB
X-Tender system work that isn’t included is a Category 5
twisted-pair extension cable that will run between the
Host-Interface Module and the Device-Interface
Module. (See
Appendix B
for specifications of this
cable.) The maximum distance it can run will be
determined by the types of USB devices you’re using
(see
Appendix D
): If any of your peripherals are “full
speed,” the total end-to-end cable length (including
both this cable and the USB cables) between the
computer and any peripheral can’t be more than 150 ft.
(45.7 m), but if all of the devices are “low speed,” the
total cable length can be as much as 1000 ft. (304.8 m).
