USB 1.1 Over Cat5 Extender (50m)

Free up even more desk space!

Now you can run any non-networked USB printer all the way to the copy room! That’s right – this amazing unpowered extender can boost any USB signals up to 50 metres away from your computer. Which is exactly the sort of freedom you were looking for right? How nice would it be to copy files to your iPod when the docking cradle is across the house? How about operating your fancy PS3 joystick from the back of your media room when the console is at the other end? Better yet; why not a permanent in-wall installation that gives you USB from your media centre to your laptop?

The options really are near to limitless and flexibility is the order of the day. The sender-receiver pair is powered completely by the USB connection and contain signal repeaters, so you’re not losing any data in even the longest cable run. It’ll work with any low-power or externally-powered peripheral such as barcode scanners, keyboards, digital cameras — you name it! Very ‘yes, please!’   = )
