Icron goes for the Wireless ExtremeUSB
Icron is the industry standard for extended range USB connectivity. The ExtremeUSB technology from Icron can span 1.2 miles from host to device. Now, Icron is putting their skills to work on WUSB. As with wired USB technology there is high latency in wireless too. Restrictions of bandwidth and variable error rates of wireless media, Icron and ExtremeUSB developed technology to manage the delay and latency issues to enable long distance connectivity via wireless USB 2.0.
Capable of managing USB connections over restricted bandwidth and higher latency links, ExtremeUSB provides USB connectivity over any wireless media, including:
- Ultra-Wideband
- 802.11a/b/g/n
- 900MHz, 2.4GHz or 5GHz proprietary phys.
While most of the focus on wireless USB has been around the Ultra-Wideband radio technology, Icron is focused on developing a robust technology core with ExtremeUSB that is applicable to any radio platform.
If you are looking to controller your USB Cannon from a far off, remote location or have a serious application like controlling video cameras or security touch-pads over a college campus then reach for the Icron Whitepaper on Wireless USB and geek up.
