SMPTE LINK USB 2 or 3 or...?

Postby Darren » Tue May 24, 2016 4:28 am

Hello,
Is the SMPTE link manufactured to be used in USB 2 or USB 3 port in Manager? (....or does it not matter?) It works in both for me but I having some issues, and wonder if one port has better performance over the other :?:
Thank you,
Darren

Hi,

SMTPE Link is a USB 2 Device.
You do not gain any speed or so when running on a USB 3 port.
It aslo should not matter if you use a USB 2 or USB 3 Port.
There can be problems if your USB 3 Chipset / Driver does something strange. We have had that once before. But that was a Driver Issue of the USB 3 Chipset.

Hi,

I used USB 3 port for smpte link for years.
Never had problems or issues.
