  • Page 4: Introduction

    NTI XTENDEX USB IP Extender INTRODUCTION The XTENDEX™ USB IP Extender Network Attached USB Hub (XTENDEX) allows five USB peripheral devices to be connected anywhere on a wired or wireless LAN, while eliminating the need for locally-attached CPUs. Software drivers are loaded onto a CPU or server, enabling remote devices to communicate with the CPU, without changing existing application software.

    NTI XTENDEX USB IP Extender UNDERSTANDING HUBS Hubs, critical components in the plug-and-play architecture, are wiring concentrators that enable the attachment of multiple devices, thus converting a single attachment point into multiple attachment points. USB architecture allows a cascaded multiple hub configuration with certain power limitations (explained later in this section).
