Abstract: A system and a method provided for managing and protecting master passwords from technicians/employees requiring access to at least one of the security systems such as an access control, a CCTV/surveillance system, burglar alarm and fire alarm system on a network with no internet access. The method involves creating a ciphered version of a master password i.e., a ciphered password on a password management server, transmitting the ciphered password to a Smartphone application installed on a user's device after authenticating the user. Further, securely transferring the ciphered password to an Intelligent USB Drive via Bluetooth®, by authenticating the USB Drive with the user's device. The USB drive is then connected to the security system via a USB port or GUI interface to access the security system.

Abstract: A USB controller includes: a USB interface that receives an isochronous timestamp packet (ITP) from a host device that includes a current time value from the host device and a delay value associated with each hub through which the ITP passed; controller hardware that initiates a counter, sends a link delay measurement (LDM) link management packet (LMP) request to a nearest upstream hub, stores a first timestamp that corresponds to when the LDM LMP request was sent, receives an LDM LMP response from the nearest upstream hub, and stores a second timestamp that corresponds to when the LDM LMP response was received; and controller software that calculates a link delay between the USB controller and the nearest upstream hub based on the first and second timestamps and delay information included in the LDM LMP response, and adjusts the counter value based on the calculated link delay.

Abstract: A universal serial bus (USB) control device and a control method thereof are provided. The USB control device includes multiple host interfaces, multiple USB ports, a bus physical layer circuit, a microprocessor, and a bus schedule controller. The bus schedule controller controls the bus physical layer circuit according to a USB task. The microprocessor obtains a USB task command through the host interface, which includes a USB port number of a specific host interface. The microprocessor queries the USB port number of the specific host interface based on an index lookup table to correspond to a specific USB port, generates the USB task according to the specific USB port, and transmits the USB task to the bus schedule controller. The index lookup table is configured to record a relationship between a part of the USB port that each host interface is responsible for and the USB port number.

Abstract: A serial bus repeater includes first and second ports adapted to be coupled to respective devices. A first termination resistor network couples to the first port. A second termination resistor network couples to the second port. A squelch detect circuit couples to the first bus port and is configured to detect activity on the first bus and to generate a squelch signal responsive to detection of activity on the first port. A first state machine is configured to: determine an elapsed time during which the squelch signal indicates activity on the first port; determine that the elapsed time exceeds a first threshold; and, responsive to the determination that the elapsed time exceeds the first threshold, assert configuration signals to reconfigure the first and second termination resistor networks.

Abstract: A universal serial bus (USB) server includes USB connectors. Each USB connector is configured to interface via USB to an endpoint server. The server includes a terminal manager configured to issue a command to a first endpoint server via a selected one of the USB connectors. The selected USB connector is associated with and connected to the first endpoint server. The terminal manager is further configured to determine whether a response has been received to the command, and, based on a determination that no response has been received to the command, attempt to power up the first endpoint server through the selected one of USB connectors.
