ATEN UCE33100 Connection Diagram

Image 3: ATEN UCE33100 Connection Diagram
This diagram illustrates the typical setup for the UCE33100. A PC connects to the UCE33100L (Local Unit) via a USB cable. The UCE33100L then connects to the UCE33100R (Remote Unit) using a Cat 6A cable. Finally, USB peripherals such as a printer, mouse, keyboard, and camera connect to the USB ports on the UCE33100R. Both units require power from their respective power adapters.

  1. Skakel toestelle af: Ensure all devices, including the host computer and USB peripherals, are powered off before beginning installation.
  2. Connect Local Unit: Connect the USB 3.2 Type-B to Type-A cable from your host computer's USB port to the HOST USB Port on the UCE33100L (Local Unit).
  3. Connect Remote Unit: Connect your USB peripheral devices (e.g., keyboard, mouse, webcam, flash drive) to the USB Type-A-poorte on the UCE33100R (Remote Unit).
  4. Interconnect Units: Koppel die Cat 6A Port on the UCE33100L to the Cat 6A Port on the UCE33100R using a single Cat 6A Ethernet cable. Ensure the cable length does not exceed 100 meters.
  5. Pas krag toe:
    • Connect the included 24V power adapter to the DC24V-kraginvoer on either the UCE33100L or UCE33100R. The two-way 24V power cable function eliminates the need for a second power adapter if one unit is powered.
    • Plug the power adapter into an appropriate power outlet.
  6. Krag aan: Power on your host computer and connected USB peripheral devices. The UCE33100 is plug-and-play and should be recognized automatically by the operating system.
  7. Optional RS-232/FSYNC: If using RS-232 or FSYNC functionalities, connect the appropriate cables to the respective terminals on both the Local and Remote Units as required by your application.

Belangrik: Use only Cat 6A Ethernet cable for optimal performance and to achieve the maximum extension distance. Lower category cables may result in reduced performance or shorter distances.

5. Operasie

Once the ATEN UCE33100 extender system is set up, operation is straightforward.

  • USB Device Recognition: Connected USB devices on the Remote Unit will function as if they were directly connected to the host computer. The operating system will detect and install necessary drivers for the USB devices automatically.
  • Data-oordrag: The extender supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 data transfer rates up to 5Gbps. Performance may vary based on the connected USB devices and cable quality.
  • RS-232 Pass-through: If configured, RS-232 serial data will pass transparently between the host system and the remote RS-232 device.
  • FSYNC GPIO Pass-through: If configured, FSYNC signals will pass transparently for industrial camera synchronization.
  • LINK LED Indicator: Observe the LINK LED on both units. A solid light indicates a successful connection between the Local and Remote Units.

The UCE33100 is designed for continuous operation. No specific user interaction is required after initial setup for standard USB extension.
