It connects to a single USB host, such as a conference room PC, Microsoft Teams Rooms compute module or media server, through a USB Type-C port. Pair it with the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/crestron-usb-ext-3s-remote\"\u003eUSB-EXT-3S-REMOTE\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"\/products\/crestron-usb-ext-3s-remote-1g\"\u003eUSB-EXT-3S-REMOTE-1G\u003c\/a\u003e at the table or display to put UC cameras and soundbars where they belong.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow does the Crestron USB-EXT-3S-LOCAL work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA standard USB 3.2 cable tops out around 6 ft (1.8 m), which is too short for most rooms where the PC lives in a rack or credenza. The USB-EXT-3S-LOCAL converts the host's USB 3.2 signal onto a proprietary LINK connection and sends it point-to-point over CAT6a\/7 to the remote endpoint, where your USB devices plug in. No drivers are needed on Windows, macOS, Linux or Chrome OS.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe series fully supports USB 3.2 isochronous (ISO) transport. ISO traffic, the kind UC cameras and video capture devices use, is guaranteed a share of USB bandwidth, so a flash drive or other bulk transfer on the same link will not drop frames on your camera feed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach endpoint also includes an RS-232 pass-through, so a Crestron control processor can reach a serial device at the far end over the same LINK cable.
