2.2 About the Remote Port USB
The Remote Port USB breaks the five-meter distance barrier for the
connection of USB devices and allows users to enjoy the benefits of USB
technology beyond the desktop. With the Remote Port USB, USB devices
can be located up to 50 meters from the host computer. In addition, the
Remote Port USB can supply power to the remote USB device.
The product is composed of two individual units, the Local Unit and the
Remote Unit.
2.2.1 The Local Unit
The Local Unit connects to the host computer using a conventional
USB cable. Depending on your needs, it also connects to a power
outlet through an AC power adapter.
