Vanco Announces USB-C Extender with Full USB 3.2 Support
New addition to the Evolution line leverages HDBaseT chipsets to extend signals for up to four peripherals and a single host.
Batavia, IL – June 4, 2024 – Vanco International LLC, an industry leader in AV distribution and electronic accessory products, today announces the launch of the EVEXUSB32 HDBaseT USB 3.2 Extender. This USB-C host with an extension range of 328 feet (100m) has a suggested retail price of less than half the cost of competitive products.
The EVEXUSB32 leverages HDBaseT-USB3 chipsets to extend full USB 3.2 Gen 1×1 over a single Cat6/6A cable. It is backwards-compatible with all prior USB standards, and includes both USB-A and USB-C ports for new and legacy device support.
The EVEXUSB32 consists of two devices: the host and the receiver. Leveraging PoH, only one unit – the host or receiver – needs to be connected to external power. The host unit features a single USB-C port, while the receiver has three USB-A ports and one USB-C port. This configuration allows the simultaneous connection of up to four peripherals. The receiver unit also offers ample power delivery: the USB-C port and one USB-A port deliver up to 1.5A each, while the remaining two USB-A ports offer 1A each.
The EVEXUSB32 delivers up to 5 Gbps data throughout for USB data and control. In addition to USB signal extension, EVEXUSB32 features passthroughs for RS-232 controls and FSYNC (frame synchronization) for multi-camera videoconferencing or production setups.
“Support for the latest USB standards is now widespread across consumer and professional endpoints,” says Brandon White, Director of New Product Development for Vanco. “This extender affordably and reliably expands the range of those connections, simplifying system design for a wide variety of applications.”
Like all Evolution products, the EVEXUSB32 is backed by a ten-year warranty. Learn more at www.vanco1.com, or visit the Vanco booth, C9583, at InfoComm 2024.
