Infinity USB Smart

Product Description

The
brand new Infinity USB Smart is low on cost yet rich in features.
Based
on a driverless USB connection, it creates a virtual COMport on the PC, or a
Linux based host like a DreamBox/STB, enabling a generic Smartmouse / Phoenix
interface, with support for all common clockrates.

New
module based smartcard reader
The
Infinity USB Smart is a new module based smartcard reader, with a new approach
for ensuring a very high level of compatibility and functionality.

The
core functionality is a phoenix/smartmouse interface, compatible with any
Windows, Linux-based system or embedded Linux-based systems like DreamBox,
Set-top boxes (STB) or other industrial controller.

This
is just one of the features of the Infinity USB Smart. The module-based approach
makes it possible to install new modules any other smartcard related
functionality or standalone operation!

The
innovative dome-shaped design with upright card insertion, makes one-hand
operation possible while keeping a small footprint on the desk.

Driverless
USB
Infinity
USB Smart is connected to a PC using a single USB 2.0 connection (backwards
compatible with USB 1.1). Since Infinity USB Smart is based on the HID standard,
no custom drivers are needed, and installation is as easy as inserting the USB
connector.

Phoenix/Smartmouse
(VCP)
The
core functionality of Infinity USB Smart is to provide Phoenix/Smartmouse
compatibility through a virtual COMport (VCP). The VCP has been very thoroughly
tested with most popular applications and cards. Setting up the VCP is done
through the accompanying software, and all popular frequencies (3.58, 3.68 and
6.00MHz) and a boost mode can be selected.

The
user-interface has been translated into the following languages:

English	Danish	German	French	Italian	Dutch
Icelandic

Linux
support
VCP
modules are available and ready for the Linux operating system, making it
possible to use the Infinity USB Smart on both Linux-based PCs, or with embedded
systems. Industrial controllers, Set-top Boxes (STB) like DreamBox or any other
Linux embedded system with USB host controller can be used.

Module
based
Infinity
USB Smart is module based, with separate firmware based modules. This means that
the new firmware modules can be installed and downloaded to the hardware when
new functionality is needed. 
Currently
modules for use with Linux embedded systems are ready for download, and more
will be available later, and on user demand.
Installing
a module is easy with the Infinity USB Smart software, simply choose a module
and press a single button. The modules are complete selfcontained “building
blocks”, working completely independent from the main-module (VCP).
Choosing
between the main-module and user installed modules are done with a small switch
on the bottom of the Infinity USB Smart hardware.

Innovative
design
The
dome shaped design, with an injection-moulded casing in matte white ABS, will
look good on any desk. The smartcard is inserted from the top, making one-hand
operation easy, and leaving just a small footprint on the desk.
A
dual-colour red/green LED indicates the different states of the
programmer.

Additional
software
[Infinity
PasswordSafe / WinLogon]
PasswordSafe
is used for safe and secure password storage and distribution, on standard PIC
or AVR based cards. Up to more than 1000 passwords can be stored on a single
smartcard, and passwords are easily accessed with a custom shortcut key.
PasswordSafe WinLogon can be used for enhancing the Windows logon security, by
storing the Windows logon password on a PasswordSafe card..
