DM NUX USB Extender, USB over Network Wall Plate with Routing, Remote, White

Extends and routes any USB 1.1 or 2.0 device across an Ethernet network or point-to-point over one CAT5e (or better) shielded twisted pair cable. Expands the USB routing capabilities of a DigitalMedia™ system and features virtual hub functionality. Mounts to a 1-gang electrical box.

Extends any USB 1.1 or 2.0 device up to 330 ft (100 m) point-to-point over one CAT5e (or better) unshielded twisted pair cable.

The DM NUX USB over Network Wall Plates with Routing (DM‑NUX‑L2‑1G and DM‑NUX‑R2‑1G) deliver reliable, high‑speed USB signal extension and routing for USB 1.0, 1.1, and 2.0 devices throughout a home, business, or campus for distances up to 330 ft (100 m). Featuring Virtual Hub capabilities, five DM-NUX-R2‑1G endpoints may simultaneously be connected to a single DM-NUX-L2‑1G endpoint. Creating this virtual hub allows numerous USB devices to control a single host device (such as a PC).1 The USB signals are transported over the local network and managed through a Crestron control system.

As part of a Crestron DigitalMedia™ system, the USB endpoints provide seamless routing of USB signals alongside video and audio. From any room with a video display, you can switch between several computers, media servers, and game consoles anywhere in the building and control each one using your mouse and keyboard, game controller, or electronic whiteboard.1 Sync your smartphone, upload photos, and share music and video files with a computer — all from clear across the building.

The USB endpoints expand on DigitalMedia’s built-in USB HID routing abilities, adding enhanced USB connectivity to DM® transmitters, receivers, or switchers without requiring any additional wiring. Simply connect a USB endpoint to the LAN port of a DM transmitter or receiver, or to a port on the local area network.4 Two types of wall plate USB endpoints are available:

• DM-NUX-R2‑1G - Provides connectivity for up to four USB devices (keyboards, whiteboards, mobile devices, etc.) at one location
• DM-NUX-L2‑1G - Provides connectivity for a single USB host (computer, media server, codec, etc.)

The USB endpoints may be used to provide simple, point‑to‑point USB signal extension, either over an Ethernet LAN or a dedicated CAT5e cable.2 At least one remote (device) endpoint (DM-NUX-R2‑1G) and one local (host) endpoint (DM-NUX-L2‑1G) are required to form a working system. The endpoints are sold individually to accommodate any system configuration.

The DM-NUX-L2‑1G and DM-NUX-R2‑1G mount in an unobstructed North American 1-gang electrical box and are compatible with the DM‑NUX‑L2 and DM‑NUX‑R2 endpoints.
