NET20DC Hi-Speed USB2.0 Debugger Cable
The NET20DC is a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 device offering two upstream ports to connect two computers without a complicated hardware setup. The 480 Mbps bandwidth offers blazing fast transfer rates for kernel driver debugging.
The NET20DC is a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Host-to-Host debug cable. It supports Windows kernel-level debugging with the debugger tool, WinDbg. At this time, the NET20DC is supported in Windows Vista only. The NET20DC can be used with any USB host that supports the "Debug Port" defined in the Enhanced Host Controller Interface Specification for Universal Serial Bus. Debugging with the NET20DC aids mobile systems (without 1394/serial ports) debugging. For other systems, the NET20DC provides a backup to debugging over the 1394/serial ports.
Hardware requirements include an EHCI host controller that supports kernel debugging and a kernel debugging cable that meets the USB2 Debug Device Functional Specification (.pdf), like the NET20DC.
Software requirements include having specific USB kernel debugging driver files. The BIOS must support Hi-Speed USB 2.0 device communication and must be able to identify the Debug Port # on the Target PC.
System Requirements:
- Target Computer: Windows Vista OS
- Host Computer: Windows 2000 and later OS
- Two USB cables
