The Lindy USB 2.0 Cat.6 Extender can be used to extend the distance between a USB peripheral device and the host computer by up to 50 m. A standard, low-cost Cat.5/5e/6 network cable is used to bridge the connection between the transmitter and the receiver unit. The Extender features Power over Cable, which requires a single power supply only to be connected to the transmitter unit. This handy feature allows the receiver unit and connected devices to be located more freely as no power supply is required. With robust metal housing and integrated mounting brackets this Extender is the ideal solution for industrial environments.
