A Quick Look at the USB 3 Extenders
The local (receiver) and remote (transmitter) extenders look similar, but are not interchangeable. They use
different power supplies as well. Please take the time to identify each part correctly.
The Local (Rx) Extender
The local (receiver) extender connects to the computer using a standard USB 3.1 cable. Power for this unit is
provided by the included 24V 1A adapter.
