About the WiRanger

The WiRanger is the world’s first wireless USB 2.0 Hub, combining Icron’s patented ExtremeUSB® technology and an industry standard IEEE 802.11g radio. The WiRanger Hub enables wireless connection of USB devices up to 30 meters from the host computer.

The WiRanger installs as a Generic USB Hub and requires no additional software drivers to be installed. It is composed of two individual units, the LEX unit, which connects to the host computer, and the REX unit, which connects to the remote USB device(s).

The LEX unit

The LEX unit connects to the host computer using a conventional USB cable. It also connects to a power outlet through an AC power adapter.
