Installation Guide

Installing the USB 3-2-1 Raven 3124 System

Requirements

To complete the installation, you will also require the following items that are not included with this system:

• USB compatible computer (host computer) with a USB compliant operating system

• USB compatible device(s)

• OM3 Fiber optic cabling

Fiber Optic Link Cabling

The LEX and REX extenders are interconnected by fiber optic cabling. Duplex multimode ber cabling

is required for the Raven 3124 for extending up to 200m using 50/125μm OM3 grade cable. The cabling

subsystem must provide a duplex connection with crossover, and must be terminated with Duplex LC

connectors at both ends.

Preparing Your Site

Before installing the Raven 3124 extender, you will need to prepare your site:

1. Place the computer where desired and set it up.

2. Ensure to locate the USB device(s) within the cable-length of the computer. If not, adjust the

location of the device(s) and/or computer accordingly.

3. If you are using surface cabling, the Raven 3124 supports a maximum distance of 200m over OM3

multimode ber.

4. If using premise cabling, ensure compatible ber optic cabling is installed between the two locations

and does not to exceed the specied distance.

Host USB Devices

LEX REX

USB 3-2-1

up to 200m over MMF

LAN IP Control

OM3 Fiber Optic Link Cable

USB Cable

Optional Network Connections

Installing the LEX Unit

1. Place the LEX unit near the computer.

2. Assemble the power adapter and country specic power cord together and connect them into a

suitable AC outlet.

3. Connect the supplied USB 3.1 Gen cable between the LEX host port and a USB 3 port on the host

computer.

Connecting the LEX to the REX

With Surface Cabling:

1. Plug one end of the ber optic cabling (not included) into the Link port on the LEX.

2. Plug the other end of the ber optic cabling into the Link port on the REX.

With Premise Cabling:

1. Plug one end of a ber optic patch cord (not included) into the Link port on the LEX.

2. Plug the other end of the patch cord into the ber optic information outlet near the host computer.

3. Plug one end of the second ber optic patch cord (not included) into the Link port on the REX.

4. Plug the other end of the second patch cord into the ber optic information outlet near the USB

device.

Installing the REX Unit

1. Place the REX near the USB device(s).

2. Connect the power adapter to the REX.

Checking the Installation

1. On the LEX and REX units, check that the Power, Status, Link, USB 2 and USB 3 LEDs are on. If

the Link LEDs are permanently o, then the cabling between the LEX and REX units may not be

installed properly or is defective.

2. For Windows users (XP, 7, 8, 8.1, 10), open Device Manager to conrm that the extender system has

been installed correctly. Expand the entry for Universal Serial Bus controllers by clicking the “+” sign.

If the extender system has been installed correctly, you should find two separate instances of

“Generic SuperSpeed USB Hub” listed.

To open Device Manager in Windows XP:

Right click “My Computer” then select: Properties >> Hardware tab >> Device Manager

To open Device Manager in Windows 7:

Open the Start Menu, right click on“Computer”then select: Manage >> Device Manager

To open Device Manager in Windows 8, 8.1 or 10:

Right click the Start Menu and then select: Device Manager

note

3. For macOS users, open the System Profiler to conrm that the extender system has installed correctly.

In the left-hand column under Hardware, select “USB” and inspect the right hand panel. If the

extender has been installed correctly, you should find it listed as two separate instances of“Hub”

under the USB SuperSpeed Bus.

To open System Profiler in macOS:

Open the Finder, select Applications, then open the Utilities folder and double click on the System Proler icon.

4. If the extender system is not detected correctly or fails to detect, please consult the Troubleshooting

section in this guide.

Connecting a USB Device

1. Install any software required to operate the USB device. Refer to the documentation for the USB

device, as required.

2. Connect the USB device to the device port on the REX.

3. Check that the device is detected and installed properly in the operating system.

Compatibility

The USB 3-2-1 Raven 3124 complies with USB 2.0 and USB 3.1 Gen 1 specications governing the design of

USB devices. However, there is no guarantee that all USB devices or hosts will be compatible as there are a

number of dierent characteristics that may impact the operation of USB devices over extended distances.

Optional Ethernet Pass Through Connection

The Raven 3124 oers a 100 Mbps Ethernet pass through connection that can be used for a variety of

purposes including:

• Connecting network devices

• Providing remote network access to the same location as the REX unit

• Leveraging existing cabling to provide USB 3-2-1 connectivity without losing network connectivity

Connect any network device or access port into the RJ45 socket label “LAN” using up to 100 meters of

standard CAT 5e, 6 or 7 cabling.
