Welcome
Introduction
Thank you for choosing the Adder X50 USB
extenders which provide a very effective way to put
distance between your computer and its peripherals.
The compact casings and ease of use of the Adder
X50 modules belie the ingenuity of their operation.
Using our proprietary transmission techniques we
are able to reliably transfer more signals than ever
before along a single length of Category 5, 5e or
6 twisted pair cabling. What this means for you is
that your video, audio, USB keyboard, USB mouse
and two other USB channels are all readily and
reliably available at up to 50 metres away.
Using the Adder X50 extenders does not mean
that you need to compromise on functionality in
any way. Our highly efficient transmission methods
mean that high video resolutions of up to 1920
x 1440 are supported together with CD quality
digital sound that produces no crackles - even
in the quietest interludes. The USB connections
are seamless and thanks to our unique ‘Bi-tripos’
circuitry, four full speed USB 2.0 devices can
be used simultaneously with full support for
disconnect/re-connect at any time without causing
errors.
The Adder X50 extenders have been designed to be
quick to install and totally transparent in operation.
All connectors are industry standard and the video
sharpness adjustments are made using a simple
rotary dial.
Where dual screens are required, an MS2 variant
provides double video channels in addition to full
support for an RS232 serial device. So whether you
are extending your workplace or creating a cost-
effective distributed audio visual system, the X50
extenders provide the power and flexibility to create
the right solution.
