This product supports 

only one USB web cam

.

 Many web cams on 

the market today are what we called USB 2.0 device. USB 2.0 devices, 
by specification, could be transmitting data at 480 Mbps during operation. 
The bandwidth provided by this USB Server product is at most 320 Mbps. 
Though in reality a single webcam may not require 480 Mbps bandwidth, 
the required bandwidth of two or more web cam definitely exceeds the 
320 Mbps this product could provide. Hence only 1 USB web cam is 
supported on each USB server. 
 

Q. Does this product support USB Speaker/Mic.? 

Yes it does. 

However, ONLY 1 USB speaker/audio input/output 

device is supported per product.

 

Please consult the supported 

device list for all the supported USB audio devices

.
