PS34a offers one parallel and one USB 2.0 HS port each; the USB interface supporting all currently existing USB standards: USB 1.1, USB 2.0 Full Speed (12Mbit/s) as well as the fastest USB standard, USB 2.0 High Speed (480Mbit/s). Plus, the print server's USB port may be extended using a standard hub to support up to four printers. PS34a, therefore, homogenises the network infrastructure to a great extent, and reduces the number of required network adapters; lowering follow-up costs from operation and maintenance. PS34a is a multiple protocol print server that offers all the familiar features of SEH's premium InterCon brand. It works with all major operating systems, including Windows, Linux, UNIX and Apple. The device is managed either via browser, via SEH's own admin tool, or via one of the popular tools of other vendors - e. g. HP Web Jetadmin or the Epson NetTools - but also offers many other management options. PS34a comes with a comprehensive security package combining access protection, encryption, authentication and certificates.
