Biamp has launched its USB 200, designed to switch USB peripherals when paired with the Devio SCR-10, SCR-20 and SCR-25.
The USB 200 adds flexible USB switching to rooms, allowing users to share peripheral devices between in-room PC and BYOD laptops, supporting both USB 2.0 and 3.0.
Switching of devices between two host computers is enabled with automated priority switching when a second computer is connected. The source can also be changed manually via an external control system.
A two second power switch delay is provided when switching between computers to ensure a reliable re-connection of a device, with built-in active powered USB allowing the use of USB 3.0 cable lengths up to three metres.
USB 2.0 cable lengths are also provided, with cable lengths of up to five metres on both sides of the switch for flexibility in device placement.
