USB 2.0 Ethernet extender up to 164 ft

This converter connects a single USB 2.0 device to a computer over Cat5, Cat5e or Cat6 cable at distances up to 164 ft. It uses a USB 2.0 male plug on one end and a 100 Mbps Ethernet port on the other. The adapter is designed for users who need to place a USB peripheral far from the host without running long USB cables.

Practical limits of USB 2.0 over Ethernet

The link operates at USB 2.0 Hi-Speed rates up to 480 Mbps while the Ethernet port negotiates at 100 Mbps. Maximum cable reach is 50 m (164 ft) using standard Cat5, Cat5e or Cat6 wiring. The device draws power from the USB bus and requires no external supply or driver installation.

Check your setup before ordering

Verify that the peripheral you intend to extend is a single USB 2.0 or 1.1 device and does not require more bus current than the host port can deliver. Ensure you have a suitable Cat5, Cat5e or Cat6 patch cable of the required length. The converter occupies a USB-A port measuring 0.8 in by 1.2 in by 16.6 in overall.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 164 ft or 198 ft range for my USB 2.0 device?

Both figures describe the same maximum distance; 164 ft (50 m) is the standard Cat5/5e/6 limit for this adapter.

Will the 480 Mbps USB 2.0 transfer rate actually reach my device over 164 ft of Cat6 cable?

The built-in signal booster preserves USB 2.0 Hi-Speed integrity up to the full 164 ft distance.

Does the 100 Mbps Ethernet port limit the USB 2.0 480 Mbps speed in practice?

The adapter converts USB 2.0 to RJ-45 using a proprietary booster, so the 100 Mbps label reflects the Ethernet physical layer, not a USB throughput cap.
