VERVIEW
The Vaddio Extreme USB 2.0 Extenders
provide a complete working solution
powered by Extreme USB Long Reach
USB 2.0 enabled by the Lion’sGate™
USB 2.0 Extension ASIC. The system
has a transmit (TX) or remote device
side and a receive (RX) or Host PC side
and extends USB 2.0 high speed and
USB 1.1 devices up to 100m (328.1’)
over CAT-5 or better cable.
The TX side has the USB Type-A female USB 2.0 input jack and is located with the device and is powered with
the 5 VDC power supply while the RX side is port powered by the Host PC. Power is not required on the RX Host
side for normal operation.
The Extenders operate with USB 2.0 high-speed host controllers and USB 1.1 classic hosts. All USB device
types are supported including Control, Interrupt, Bulk and Isochronous at up to 480Mbp/s. The Extenders are true
plug and play and ready to operate out of the box and no new driver installation is required (bonus).
The Extreme USB 2.0 Extenders support all major operation systems including Windows®, Mac OS® and Linux®
and are ideal for a wide variety of USB devices like Vaddio HD-USB Cameras, EasyUSB Mixer/Amp and
EasyTalk Wireless USB Mic System as well as printers, scanners, touch screens and game controllers.
Intended Use:
Before operating the device, please read the entire manual thoroughly. The system was designed, built and
tested for use indoors, and with the provided power supply and cabling. The use of a power supply other than the
one provided or outdoor operation has not been tested and could damage the device and/or create a potentially
unsafe operating condition.
Important Safeguards:
Read and understand all instructions before using. Do not operate any device if it has been dropped or damaged.
In this case, a Vaddio technician must examine the product before operating. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
do not immerse in water or other liquids and avoid extremely humid conditions. Do not connect Ethernet or
Power over Ethernet (PoE) cables directly to the RJ-45 ports on the device as damage may result.
Use only the power supply provided with the system. Use of any unauthorized
power supply will void any and all warranties.
Please do not use “pass-thru” type RJ-45 connectors. These pass-thru type connectors do not w ork
well for professional installations and can be t he cause of inte rmittent co nnections w hich can result i n
the data or control line failing and locking up. For best results please use standard RJ-45 co nnectors
and test all cables for proper pin-outs prior to use.

NSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1: Before installing the Extreme USB 2.0 Extenders:
Determine where the computer is going to be located.
Determine the location of the USB device.
To ensure proper operation it is recommended that only CAT-5 or better, Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)
cabling be used to connect
the RX unit to the TX unit. The cabling must have a straight-through conductor
configuration with no crossovers and must be terminated with 8 conductor RJ-45 connectors at both ends.
The combined length of any patch cords using stranded conductors must not exceed 10m.
Step 2: Place the RX unit near the host computer and install the supplied 6’ (1.83m) USB 2.0 cable between the
RX unit and the USB port on the host computer. The USB port must supply 500mA to the RX unit.
Step 3: Place the TX unit near the USB device in the desired remote location.
Step 4: Plug the 5VDC power adapter into a suitable electrical outlet and connect the power adapter to the TX
unit.
Step 5: Connect the CAT-5 cabling (not included) into the RJ-45 Link port on the TX unit.
Step 6: Plug the other end of the CAT-5 cable into the RJ-45 Link port on the RX unit.
Checking out the Installation:
A. On the RX and TX units, check that the Power, Host, and Link LEDs are on and that the Activity LED is
blinking. If the Link LED is permanently of f, then the cabling between the RX and TX unit is not installed
properly or is defective.
B. For Windows users (20 00, XP, V ista, Windows 7), open Device Manager to confirm that the “Generic USB
Hub” has been installed.
C. For Mac OS X users, open the System Profiler to confirm that the “Hub” has installed correctly. In the left
hand column under Hardware, select “USB” and inspect the right hand panel. If the system has been
installed correctly, you should find it listed as a “Hub” under the USB High-Speed Bus/USB Bus.
Operating System Notes:
To open System Profiler in OS X: Open the Finder, select Applications, then open the Utilities
folder and double click on the System Profiler icon.
To open Device Manager in Windows 2000 or XP: Right click “My Computer” then select:
Properties >> Hardware tab >> Device Manager.
To open Device Manager in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
Open the Start menu, right click on “Computer” then select: Manage >> Device Manager.
