Edgeport/21c, Edgeport/22c

The Edgeport/21c and Edgeport/22c are compact, multi-connector converters for mobile and high-end workstation

users who need to attach multiple serial (RS-232) ports, a printer port, and USB peripherals to a single USB

upstream connector.

Cabling Edgeport

Type A

These Edgeports operate as bus-powered hubs. For more information about hubs, see the section ―Understanding

Hubs‖ on page 16. To connect your Edgeport, plug the USB cable (with the Type A plug) into a USB port located

on your PC or into an available USB port on a standard hub or into a Digi Hubport.
