About the USBthere

The USBthere breaks the five-meter distance barrier for the connection of

USB peripheral devices and allows users to enjoy the benefits of USB

technology beyond the desktop. With the USBthere, USB devices can be

located up to 50 meters from the host computer. In addition, the USBthere

can supply power to remote low-power and some high-power USB devices.

The product is composed of two individual units, the Local Unit and the

Remote Unit.

The Local Unit

The Local Unit connects to the host computer using a conventional

USB cable.

Network Cabling

The Local Unit and the Remote Unit are interconnected by up to 50

meters of Category 5 Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cabling. The

UTP cabling must have a straight-through conductor configuration,

with no crossovers, and must be terminated with 8-conductor RJ45

connectors at both ends.

USB Cables

USB cables have two distinct connectors. The Type A connector is used to

connect the cable from a USB device to the Type A port on a computer or

hub. The Type B connector is used to attach the USB cable to a USB device.

Power Handling

Some USB devices are powered directly from the USB and do not require

individual power supplies. These devices are called bus-powered devices.

The USBthere can provide power to these devices so they can be operated

remotely.

Bus-powered devices are further divided into low-power and high-power

categories. Low-power devices are allowed to draw up to 100 mA from the

USB. Typical examples include mice, joysticks, and keyboards without

hubs. High-power devices are allowed to draw up to 500 mA from the USB.

Typical examples include cameras and keyboards with hubs. To determine if

a device is high-power or low-power, consult the user documentation for the

device.

The USBthere can supply sufficient power to support all low-power devices

and most high-power devices. Devices that place a very heavy power drain

on USB (>300 mA) are not supported. Most USB devices operate well

within this power budget.

NOTE: Devices with their own power source are usually considered to be

low-power devices from a USB perspective and are thereby

compatible with the USBthere.

Compatibility

The USBthere complies with USB 1.1 specifications governing the design of

full-speed and low-speed USB devices. However, StarTech.com does not guarantee that all USB 1.1 devices are compatible with

the USBthere.

User Guide

Before You Begin

Before you can install the USBthere, you need to prepare your site.

1. Determine where the host computer is to be located and set up the

computer.

2. Determine where you want to locate the USB device.

3. If you are using surface cabling, ensure you have enough Category 5

UTP cabling to connect the two locations.

If you are using premise cabling, ensure Category 5 UTP cabling is

installed between the two locations, with Category 5 information

outlets located near both the computer and the USB device.

Installing the Local Unit

1. Place the Local Unit near the host computer.

2. Plug the Type B connector on the USB cable (included) into the Host

port on the Local Unit.

3. Plug the Type A connector on the USB cable into the USB port on

the computer.

Installing the Remote Unit

1. Place the Remote Unit near the USB device.

Connecting the Local Unit to the Remote Unit

NOTE:To ensure proper operation, we recommend that only Category 5, or

better, Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cabling be used to connect

the Local Unit to the Remote Unit. The UTP cabling must have a

straight-through conductor configuration with no crossovers, and

must be terminated with 8-conductor RJ45 connectors at both ends.

With Surface Cabling

1. Plug one end of the Category 5 UTP cabling (not included) into the

Link port on the Local Unit.

2. Plug the other end of the Category 5 UTP cabling into the Link port

on the Remote Unit.

USBthere USB110EXT/USB120EXT

With Premise Cabling

1. Plug one end of a Category 5 patch cord (not included) into the

Link port on the Local Unit.

2. Plug the other end of the patch cord into the Category 5 information

outlet near the host computer.

3. Plug one end of the second Category 5 patch cord (not included)

into the Link port on the Remote Unit.

4. Plug the other end of the second patch cord into the Category 5

information outlet near the USB device.

NOTE: The maximum length of the Category 5 UTP cable, including patch

cords, must not exceed 50 meters.

Checking the Installation

1. Check that the Link LEDs on both the Local Unit and the Remote

Unit are on.

Connecting a USB Device

1. Install any software required to operate the USB device. Refer to

the documentation for this device, as required.

2. Connect the USB device to the Device port on the Remote Unit.

3. Check that the Host LED on the Local Unit is on.

4. Check that the Device LED on the Remote Unit is on.
