Overview
Unibrain introduces USB 3.0 adapters for the professional and machine vision market, featuring Four (4) separate, independent USB 3.0, 5 Gbps channels on a single PCI-e x4 slot.
Each USB 3.0 bus takes advantages of 5 Gbps burst rate providing the ability to transfer data at ultra high speeds or get high resolution pictures at high frame rates from multiple cameras.
Unibrain Quad bus USB 3.0 Host Controller is based on Renesas uPD720202 chip and PLX PEX8608 PCI-e switch controller.
Operating system support:
Native driver support for Windows 8 & 10.
For Windows 7 only, Download Renesas Driver (For Windows 8/10 the native driver should be used).
Linux (Kernel 2.6.31 or later).
The Dual bus USB 3.0 card has been discontinued
