Compact, easy to mount

The AdderLink C-USB modules are designed to quickly and easily blend into your existing configuration. Each module measures only 87 x 57 x 30mm and they feature side slots to allow them to be cable-tied to most surfaces.

Complete support for your USB devices

To ensure that AdderLink C-USB provides maximum flexibility, we have worked hard to ensure that it supports every type of USB 2.0 or 1.1 device. So whichever transfer modes your USB devices need to use, you’re covered. For example:

Video devices      isochronous mode
Keyboards            interrupt mode
Hard drives          bulk transfer mode

Plug-and-Play, transparent operation

Once connected, operation is totally transparent to the host system, the USB peripheral(s) and you, the user. There are no drivers to install and your USB devices work precisely as they did before; the only difference is that they are now up to 100 meters away from the host.

Usable with all operating systems

The AdderLink C-USB modules are entirely independent of any operating system and are thus compatible with
them all.

Flexible power

The whole system can be powered from either end. Thanks to a clever piece of electronic design, you can choose to connect the supplied mains power adapter to either the local or remote modules, as is most convenient for your installation. Either way, a full 500mA of current is made available to your USB peripheral. The power adapter is fully auto-sensing so that it can adapt to any mains input from 100 to 240VAC.

Easy to understand indicators

Each module is adorned with a single green indicator. Only when the power, the cable link and the host USB connection are all valid will the green indicator on each module illuminate.

Built to last

Adder Technology have a well-earned reputation for creating products that perform well and stay the course. AdderLink C-USB modules are no exception and feature tough, yet lightweight rubberized ABS enclosures to ensure they can easily withstand everyday treatment. The internal components and external connectors too are selected for their reliability in addition to their performance characteristics.
