USB 2.0 over Cat5/Cat6 extender
The Cables To Go 54284 extends a single USB 2.0 connection up to 150 feet using standard Cat5 or Cat6 cabling. It supports high-speed devices at 480 Mbps and requires no software or drivers for operation. The unit is suited for conference rooms, huddle spaces or any install where the native 16.4 foot limit is insufficient. Plug-and-play design makes it accessible to non-technical users.
Local and remote units with RJ-45 links
The extender ships as a paired local and remote module, each equipped with an RJ-45 female port for the interconnecting Ethernet cable. The local side presents a USB-A male connector to the host while the remote side provides a USB-A female port for the peripheral. A single Cat5 or Cat6 run up to 150 feet replaces a long USB cable, freeing USB ports on the host and reducing cable clutter in meeting spaces.
One high-speed device at full bandwidth
The link carries one USB 2.0 high-speed device at up to 480 Mbps with suspend and resume detection intact. Hot-plug capability allows peripherals to be swapped without rebooting the host. Bandwidth is not shared across multiple endpoints, so a single webcam, printer or storage device runs at full spec. The 150 foot ceiling marks the hard limit; runs beyond that distance are not supported.
