Share any USB resources between PCs on local network or over the Internet

USB to Ethernet Connector lets you connect to any USB device located on a remote PC on a local network or the Internet. You will be able to work with it as with a local USB device and applications working with it won't even see the difference.

USB to Ethernet Connector works with a USB driver at the system level. USB to Ethernet Connector will intercept USB port activity for the shared device and redirect it via TCP/IP to a remote site, where it is handled appropriately.To achieve such functionality, USB to Ethernet Connector is installed on both computers that take part in the communication process.

Therefore, USB to Ethernet uses client-server architecture (server side has the USB device physically attached to it, while client side connects to remote server and uses the services it provides), but each side can be a client and a server at the same time. USB to Ethernet Connector shares USB ports rather than devices.

The benefit of this approach is that you may plug in a USB device, connect to it from the remote host, detach the device and plug in another one, and it will automatically appear at the client side.

Among its key-features are an unlimited number of USB devices that can be shared, auto-connecting to new USB devices whenever you plug them in and working with virtual machines. Shared USB ports are also automatically re-configured every time you boot your PC.

The program is fully compatible with Windows 2000/XP/2003 and with HyperThreaded and multi-processor systems. An advanced and robust architecture, a wide range of supported USB devices and standards, and the simplicity of use make USB to Ethernet Connector a real pleasure to work with.
