Connect USB devices to a guest OS

With Сitrix USB redirect software, you can easily forward any local USB peripheral to a virtual environment. The shared device will appear in a virtual operating system as though it were physically connected to the virtual machine.

Redirect USB devices to RDP

If you connect to your Hyper-V VM over Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) and want to enable USB support in Hyper-V, USB Network Gate is just what you need. This dedicated software will help you virtualize your local resources and make them accessible to the guest OS.

Cross-platform connections

USB Network Gate is compatible with multiple operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and Mac. The program allows establishing a secure communication channel between different platforms and works as a wireless connector between your Hyper-V guest OS and a USB device attached to your host PC.

Here’s how to make USB devices recognizable in Hyper-V:

1

Install the app on the host computer (server) and your guest OS (client);

2

Start the app on the host and share your USB dongle over the network;

3

On the client machine find the shared device in the software interface and click “Connect”. Now, the Hyper-V USB dongle will appear in the virtual machine and you will be able to get full access to its contents.
