OPERATION
The DXE-USB Series has the ability to send USB 2.0 up to 220ft at a data rate of 480Mbps. The
DXE-USB-H1 is the host extender that will sit by the computer. It is powered from the USB port
itself of the computer. The 24v DC plug is specifically to power the remote DXE-USB-D1 so no
power is needed at the other end for the D1. The D1 is a 2 port hub for the remote devices. If it is
properly communicating with the computer over the CAT6 cable the USB1 or 2 light will illuminate
accordingly and the computer will see the device(s). Please note if the peripheral you are using
on the D1 does not work directly plugged into the computer then it will not work through the
extender. It is always best to verify operation first directly with the computer on the same USB
port of the computer. Some devices do not work well on hubs with other devices. If two devices
are plugged in at the same time try removing both then plugging in one or the other to see if
operation resumes.
For best operation try to use a direct USB port not a USB port from a HUB as performance may
be degraded.
