Cable Extenders

The 4-Port USB 2.0 over Ethernet Extender lets you extend USB devices over a Gigabit Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN) using dedicated Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat7 cabling up to 330ft (100m).Reuse Existing Infrastructure

The USB over IP extender allows you to utilize your existing IP LAN so you can avoid running new infrastructure cabling. When channeling through multiple switches at 100m intervals, the maximum extension distance resets at each switch location, making it easy to span multiple floors in a home or office setting. You can even connect the local and remote units via a single Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat7.

Unlike 10/100Mbps USB extenders, this versatile USB extender leverages the full data transfer potential of your USB 2.0 peripherals up to 480Mbps, to deliver low latency that enables support for extending isochronous devices such as webcams or microphones. Compatible with USB 2.0, and 1.1 devices with support for up to 600mA of power per port, it also functions as a USB over Ethernet hub

A flexible solution for business or industrial applications, this rugged metal enclosure includes wall-mounting brackets and simple plug-and-play installation with no software or drivers required.

This 4-Port USB 3.2 Gen 1 over Ethernet extender kit includes a transmitter and receiver that enable you to connect four remote USB devices to a local computer up to 330 ft. (100 m) away, using a single standard CAT6a, or CAT7 cable with RJ-45 connectors. For added versatility the USB extender can also extend your Gigabit Ethernet connection to the same remote location.

The USB extender kit is backward compatible with USB 2.0, USB 1.1 and USB 1.0 devices. USB 3.2 Gen 1 is also known as USB 3.0 (5Gbps).

High Performance

With support for SuperSpeed USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) this USB extender provides a reliable solution for connecting four remote high-speed devices to your local computer, up to 330 ft. (100 m) away. The extender uses standard CAT6a or CAT7 cabling, so you can use existing cabling infrastructure to extend the devices, and because the device can also extend Gigabit Ethernet you can use the same extender kit and cabling to supply a local area network (LAN) connection to the remote location, ensuring you don't need to lose your network connectivity to that area of the building.

Note:The extension signal traveling from the transmitter to the receiver over CAT6a/CAT7, cannot pass-through any active network equipment, such as routers or switches.

Industrial Design

This USB extender kit has been thoughtfully designed with features that make it ideal for high wear-and-tear environments, such as machine shops, warehouses or other industrial settings. Both the transmitter and receiver feature a durable extruded aluminum housing and provide 8kV/15kV Contact/Air Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) extended protection. The transmitter and receiver are each powered using the included power adapters, and feature screw-locking power adapter ports to ensure a reliable connection that can't accidentally disconnect. The powered extender enables each remote USB 3.2 Gen 1 port to provide 5V, 900mA of power.

For hassle-free operations monitoring, the extender kit features LED indicators for Power, Status, Link, and USB 2.0/3.0 connection type indicators. Mounting hardware is also included to ensure a tidy professional installation.

Versatile Applications

This USB extender kit is ideal to remotely access high speed USB 3.2 Gen 1 devices like storage banks (USB based HDDs or SSDs), printers, USB 2.0 HD cameras, plotters, keyboard/mouse, POS devices, scales, laser cutters, displays, or CCTV systems from a convenient location. The USB-A extender hub features driverless plug-and-play installation and is compatible with all major operating systems including Windows, macOS and Linux.

Note: This USB extender is not recommended for use with USB cameras and video capture devices that use Isochronous transport.

Extend a network over VDSL2, using Cat5e (or better) UTP Cabling or Single-Pair (or better) Telephone Wire at distances up to 0.6mi (1km).

Extend Network Connectivity

Extend a network over VDSL2 using UTP, CAT5e/6 or RJ11 cabling over distances up to 0.6mi (1km). Speeds of up to 300 Mbps (aggregated) are available at shorter distances. Supports VDSL2 35b/30a/17a and features ITU-T G.993.5 G.Vectoring and G.INP technologies.

Thoughtful Design

The installation can be customized by using DIP switches. Choose between Master or Remote mode, Symmetric or Asymmetric mode, G.INP or Interleave mode, and fine-tune SNR with High and Low options for optimal performance. The Gigabit Ethernet Extender has LEDs that provide a visual indication of network status, including LAN speed, link status, power, and remote/master mode, allowing IT administrators to monitor and assess network connectivity.

Versatile Applications

The Long-Range LAN Extender can be mounted on a wall, using the included hardware, or installed on a shelf or other surface. The kit includes two power adapters, one for each VDSL Extender. The extender works with third-party VDSL2 IP DSLAMs in CPE (RT) mode and extends the network for applications such as remote office or branch locations or IP-based video solutions. The 802.1Q VLAN tag transparency preserves VLAN-tagged traffic across the extension.

Extends USB peripheral up to 165ft using regular CAT5/5e/6 RJ45 cable and is PC/Windows & Apple/Mac compatible. This repeater cable actively regenerates the signals to preserve data integrity. Includes transmitter and receiver modules. Active repeaters provide maximum flexibility for USB devices and ideal for security and surveillance video, PC digital audio systems and other peripherals with USB interface that are beyond the reach of regular cables. Required Cables: Solid CAT5e/6 Cables. Note: Webcams need a USB 2.0 or better to support its continuous video data feeds. All runs over 50ft must use solid core cables. (Connectors: Transmitter with Built-in 11 Inches USB Cable - USB A Male to RJ45 Female; Receiver with Built-in 11 Inches USB Cable - USB A Female to RJ45 Female)
