Amplicon has brought out the USB Ranger 2200 USB 2.0 extension range, which is said to provide excellent USB 2.0 connectivity over Cat 5 and fibre-optic cables at data rates up to 480Mbps.
The Ranger 2200 products integrate the Lionsgate USB Extension ASIC and feature the ExtremeUSB protocol to extend USB to reaches of 100m over Cat 5 cabling and up to 10km over fibre.
All systems are housed in durable metal enclosures and meet emissions and EMC testing standards for use in a variety of demanding end applications.
ExtremeUSB provides long-reach USB 2.0 connections without performance degradation and with the maximum ease of integration.
The Ranger 2200 products are true plug-and-play devices, requiring no additional software drivers.
They are compatible with all major operating systems - Windows, MAC and Linux.
Models in the range include: Ranger 2204, a four-port USB2.0 extender using CAT5/6 cable up to 100m.
The Ranger 2212 is a two-port USB2.0 extender with remote power (full 500mA) capability.
The Ranger 2224 is a four-port fibre-optic USB2.0 extension up to 500m using multimode fibre.
The Ranger 2244 is a four-port fibre-optic USB2.0 extension up to 10km using single-mode fibre.
The Ranger 2212 features remote power capability - by injecting 24V DC on to the line at the PC end of the link, each of the two ports at the remote end can provide a full 500mA per the USB specification to remotely power devices such as cameras, fingerprint readers, printers and data-acquisition modules.
