What is a USB Device Server?
It is a network device that uses the USB Virtual Link 
technology to make USB devices network-ready. 
Thanks to the USB Virtual Link technology from silex 
technology, a variety of USB devices can be used on a 
network, just as though they were connected with a 
USB cable.
What is SX Virtual Link?
SX Virtual Link is a software application for the use of 
the USB Virtual Link technology. With SX Virtual Link, 
the computer can make a remote connection over the 
network to any USB device connected to the USB 
device server.
The SX-DS-4000U2 is a high-performance USB Device Server with an astounding 800 MHz of computing 
power. The USB Virtual Link technology from silex technology makes any kind of USB device network-
capable in the simplest of manners. Printers, scanners, hard drives, dongles and card readers can be 
used over the network via a total of 2 USB HiSpeed ports with the SX-DS-4000U2 just as though they 
were connected to the local computer. Multiple clients can use the same USB device one after the other, 
and it can be located further away from them.
Energy-Saver Mode
When the device server is not used for a certain period of time, the power supply to the USB bus is 
turned off to save energy. The power supply to the USB bus is automatically turned back on when the 
server is used again.
Print Server Function
Supports standard TCP/IP printing (LPR/IPP/RAW)
The product supports the general RAW-mode, LPR-mode and IPP-mode network printing protocols. 
When the product is connected to a printer, the standard Windows print function can be used to print.
Function for automatic printer connection
By setting up this function using SX Virtual Link, a print job is automatically detected for a configured 
printer: The connection to the printer is established, the Word print process is executed and the 
connection is broken again. Thus the device server function simultaneously includes a print server 
function that is also suitable for GDI printers.
Isochronous Transfer Mode
USB devices such as Webcams or USB sound cards, which require ongoing data transmission in real 
time, can also be used in the network environment. Both Full Speed and HiSpeed are supported.
    
Networking of high-quality USB devices
The network is searched for the product and the 
connected USB devices; the search results are shown in 
an overview on the main screen.
If another user is using a shared USB device, a request 
for use can be sent. It can also be specified that failure 
to respond to this request will automatically lead to a 
disconnection after a timeout.
