Extron SW4USB
The Extron SW4 USB is a four-input USB switcher that allow switching between multiple host devices and multiple USB peripherals. They provide integrator-friendly solutions for implementing USB 2.0 compatible switching in professional AV environments. A number of specialized features help further streamline integration, such as: port status indication, RS-232 pass-through, front panel security lockout, and multiple control points.
The Extron SW4 USB switcher acts as an active USB hub, supplying 5V, 500mA to attached devices, per USB specification. In addition, the switcher is USB 2.0 compatible, and are backwards compatible with all previous USB data rate specifications, including low speed 1.5 Mbps, full speed 12 Mbps, and hi-speed 480 Mbps. RS-232 pass-through reduces RS-232 control port requirements by processing SIS commands within the SW USB while also passing them through to other controllable Extron audio and video switchers. The SW USB Series incorporates rack mountable, 1U, half-rack width enclosures for simplified integration.
FEATURES
Outputs: Four female USB type A connectors
USB 2.0 compatible — Supports 480 Mbps high speed communications and is backwards compatible with all prior USB versions.
Four port output hub with 5V, 500mA available on each output — Allows simultaneous connection to multiple peripheral devices such as mass storage devices, keyboards, mice, or other HID – Human Interface Devices. Attached devices can be powered via the provided 5V, 500mA available on each output.
Port Status LEDs — Provides visual indication of port activity for enumerated peripherals and all connected and active host devices.
Multiple control points — Operation via front panel, RS-232, and contact closure offers integration flexibility into a variety of control environments.
RS-232 pass-through — Reduces RS-232 control port requirements by processing SIS commands within the SW USB while also passing them through to other controllable Extron video switchers.
Front panel security lockout — Prevents unauthorized use in non-secure environments. In lockout mode, a special button combination is required to operate the switcher from the front panel.
Rack-mountable, 1U half rack width metal enclosure
Energy-efficient external universal power supply included — Provides worldwide compatibility, low power consumption, and reduced operating costs.
