provides Hi-Speed USB to the single USB port (labeled B) that is also located on
the front panel of the AdderLink XD522 receiver.

the host computer
Note: Low/full speed USB devices can also be used on port B; the transfer speed
will be automatically reduced. The A ports support USB keyboards and mice only.
To connect the USB ports
1 Use one of the supplied USB cables to connect the Link A socket on the
rear panel of the transmitter unit with a vacant USB socket on the host
computer.
2 If the USB port B is required (on the receiver unit), use the second supplied
USB cable to connect the Link B socket on the rear panel of the transmitter
unit with a vacant USB socket (v2.0) on the host computer.
