Kramer FS11USB2 USB Videobar Isolator

The Kramer FS11USB2 connects a supported asynchronous USB-C videobar to a USB 2.0 host through an isolation device. It supports microphone operation and RS232 configuration.

FS11USB2 Detailed Features

• Add isolation to a supported videobar connection. The unit sits between a host computer and a compatible USB-C videobar. It is designed for conferencing installations that need a controlled media connection at the computer boundary.
• Use device emulation to separate endpoints. The media-emulator architecture represents the peripheral to the host and the host to the peripheral. This avoids treating the videobar connection as an unrestricted direct USB link.
• Connect through USB 2.0 interfaces. The host side uses USB Type B and the videobar side uses USB Type C. The connector shape alone does not establish compatibility: the videobar must support the manufacturer's required asynchronous transfer mode.
• Support microphone operation. This model supports microphone functionality for approved conferencing arrangements. Media operation follows the diode's controlled channels rather than the behavior of an ordinary general-purpose USB hub.
• Give users control of media availability. The manufacturer documents push-button activation and timed media operation. These controls help users manage when supported microphone and camera paths are enabled during a session.
• Configure the installation through RS-232. A four-pin serial configuration connection and remote-control support allow the device to be integrated into a managed setup. Commission the configuration for the selected videobar and host arrangement.
• Use the included external power supply. The unit requires 12V DC and includes an AC/DC supply. Allow for this power connection when locating the device near a meeting-room computer or conferencing endpoint.
