Product Description
Introduction
The USB 2.0 extender kit is the perfect solution for extending the limited 16 ft. cable length of traditional USB 2.0 cables, allowing you to create a more efficient and flexible workspace by extending your USB device up to 50m away from your host computer. This affordable and versatile kit is ideal for a range of environments, including homes, offices, and classrooms, enabling you to connect almost most of USB 2.0 /1.1 device, such as webcams, printers, and external hard drives. With a power adapter included for the remote unit, power-hungry USB devices can also be easily connected.
The USB 2.0-over-Cat5e-or-Cat6 extender is OS independent and supports a variety of operating systems, with simple and easy setup requiring no additional drivers or software. Additionally, this extender is backward compatible with USB 1.1 and 1.0 peripherals. It can be used as a mid-point repeater to increase the connection distance of your USB peripheral, reducing cable clutter. It's ideal for secure environments where the host computer must be located away from the keyboard, mouse, camera, or other USB input devices, such as in industrial control environments with interference or contamination.
Furthermore, this kit can be used with existing in-wall Cat6 Ethernet wiring, eliminating the need for new wiring to extend USB connections between rooms. You can easily extend USB connections between rooms using existing direct, in-wall Cat5e or Cat6 cable.
