Network USB Device Server

The Silex DS-600 connects USB 3.0 and 2.0 peripherals to a wired network so they can be shared by multiple users. It removes the need for a direct PC link and lets printers, scanners, drives or cameras sit anywhere an Ethernet cable reaches. IT teams and workgroups gain flexible device placement without extra host computers.

Gigabit Ethernet and 1 GHz CPU

A 1 GHz processor drives a 10/100/1000Base-T port for high-throughput USB traffic over the LAN. The board exposes one USB 3.0 SuperSpeed Type-A port and one USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Type-A port, both supplying bus power to attached devices. Isochronous transfer support keeps streaming workloads stable during sustained use.

Enterprise Security and Virtual Ready

IEEE 802.1X authentication with EAP-TLS, PEAP and EAP-TTLS lets the unit join secured corporate networks. AES 256-bit encryption protects data in transit across the link. The feature set is built for virtualised environments where consolidated USB access and strict access control are required.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the DS-600 to my network and where do I plug the USB devices?

Connect the 10/100/1000Base Ethernet port to your network switch, then attach USB devices to the USB 3.0 SUPERSPEED Type A port or the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Type A port; both supply bus power.

What ongoing maintenance does the DS-600 require?

No user-serviceable parts are described; keep the firmware current and ensure the Ethernet and USB cables remain firmly seated.

What throughput limit appears first when the DS-600 runs continuously at full load?

The Gigabit Ethernet link caps sustained throughput at 1000 Mbps, which will be reached before the 1 GHz CPU or USB 3.0 bus saturates.
