USB over Network Remotely Controls Devices from Virtual Machine or Internet
June 5th, 2008
Of all the choices USB devices can be shared among PCs (and Macs), every solution so far requires a peripheral sharing device such as Belkin USB Network Hub and IOGear USB Net ShareStation. These USB servers work great as long as everyone who lends out and borrows the hardware belongs in the same local network. If you want to remotely control the peripherals over the Internet or from a local virtual machine, USB over Network is the one to answer the call. The software-based solution comprising of the server-side and client-side software can provide worldwide access to every USB device plugged into your PC. FabulaTech's USB over Network appears to be targeting at some very specific market. It's either that or their case studies are covering niche applications. Interested OEMs can also adopt USB over Network into their products through FabulaTech's royalty-free program. For end users, the cost is somewhat high at $129.95 for sharing 1 USB device; $199.95 for 2; $299.95 for 4; and up to $2499.95 for sharing 64 devices. About Everything USB
