Initiating, by USB host adaptors, USB connections over a non-USB network, including the steps of: Connecting non-collocated USB hosts with respective non-collocated USB host adaptors (USBHs), according to USB specification timings. Connecting non-collocated USB devices with respective non-collocated USB device adaptors (USBDs). Enabling the USBHs and the USBDs to communicate over the non-USB network that enables each USBD to discover the presence and capabilities of each USBH. Receiving, by the USBHs, information about the USB devices. And then initiating, by the USBHs, USB-over-network connections between the USB hosts and the USB devices. |

1. A method for initiating, by USB host adaptors, USB connections over a non-USB network, comprising:
connecting first and second non-collocated USB hosts with respective first and second non-collocated USB host adaptors (USBHs); the USB hosts communicate with their respective USBHs according to USB specification timings; connecting first, second, and third non-collocated USB devices with respective first, second, and third non-collocated USB device adaptors (USBDs), according to USB specification timings; enabling the USBHs and the USBDs to communicate over the non-USB network that enables each USBD to discover presence and capabilities of each USBH; receiving, by the first USBH, information about the first USB device; and then initiating, by the first USBH, a first USB-over-network connection between the first USB host and the first USB device, via the first USBH and the first USBD; and receiving, by the first USBH, information about the second USB device; and then initiating, by the first USBH, a second USB-over-network connection between the first USB host and the second USB device, via the first USBH and the second USBD; and receiving, by the second USBH, information about the third USB device; and then initiating, by the second USBH, a third USB-over-network connection between the second USB host and the third USB device, via the second USBH and the third USBD. |
