USB 2.0 4-Port Extender over Ethernet

The IOGEAR GUCE64 extends up to four USB 2.0 or USB 1.1 devices to a distance of 164 feet using standard Cat5, Cat5e or Cat6 cable. It combines an active repeater with a built-in hub so peripherals such as webcams and hard drives operate at up to 480 Mbps from a remote location. The transmitter connects to the host via USB Type B and the receiver provides four USB Type A ports for the devices.

Build quality and daily connectivity

The compact black enclosure measures .9 by 3.7 by 2.7 inches and weighs .39 lb, making it easy to mount on a desk or wall. An external power adapter supplies the repeater and delivers enough current for bus-powered peripherals without drawing extra load from the host. RJ45 jacks on both ends accept common Ethernet patch cables, so installation uses familiar cabling rather than proprietary links.

Thermals, noise and power draw

The unit has no fan and runs silently in normal use. Power consumption is limited to the included adapter, keeping heat output low even when all four ports are active. The aluminium casing dissipates warmth passively, so the extender remains cool to the touch during extended operation.
