Elbox: Spider gathers USB 2.0 High-Speed
ELBOX COMPUTER is pleased to announce that from now on, Amiga has
the possibility of using new generation USB 2.0 devices in the
USB 2.0 Hi-Speed mode. This has become possible with the Spider EHCI USB
driver developed by Elbox for the MEDIATOR PCI busboard series.
When Spider USB 2.0 controller was released in September 2002, it
was supplied with the OHCI USB 1.1 driver. EHCI USB 2.0 support was
lacking but promised as soon as possible. Today Elbox made good on
that promise. The Spider EHCI USB Hi-Speed driver is now included
in the Spider CD. All registered Spider users are now receiving
this new driver as a free update.
USB 2.0 is the fastest USB standard released so far, supporting data
speeds up to 480Mbps, that is 40 times faster than USB 1.1. This makes USB
2.0 an ideal technology for external storage devices, digital cameras,
webcams and much more.
Spider USB 2.0 card features:
- Five USB 2.0 Hi-Speed ports: four external ports and one internal port
- Compatible with both USB 2.0 (480Mbps) and USB 1.1 (12Mbps) devices
- Compliant with EHCI, OHCI and PCI 2.2 standards
- All ports can handle Hi-Speed, Full-Speed and Low-Speed transaction
- 5-port EHCI (Enhanced Host Controller Interface) USB 2.0 controller
- Two independent OHCI (Open Host Controller Interface)
USB 1.1 controllers
- Supports up to 127 downstream USB devices
- Supplies 500 mA power to each USB port
- Supports PCI-Bus Power Management Interface
