Need a versatile and cost-effective USB 2.0 extender? Check out the StarTech USB2001EXTV! It gives you the freedom you need to place your USB device further away, making it perfect for your home, office, classroom and many other environments. Now, you can easily access and use your USB 2.0 device in a remote location, up to 165Ft (50 m) away, using Cat5 or Cat6 cable.
Eliminate hassle and smash distance limitations
This USB extender overcomes the 16Ft cable length limitations of traditional USB 2.0 cables, so you can create a more efficient, more flexible workspace.
It's an inexpensive USB-to-Ethernet solution that's ideal for virtually any USB 2.0 device. You can connect a webcam at the back of a classroom, or a printer in another room at the office, all up to 50 m away from your host computer.
Plus, with a power adapter included for the remote unit, you can connect power-hungry USB devices such as external hard drives.

Whether the extender is installed in a permanent location, or will be moved from place to place, it gives you the peace of mind that your USB peripheral remains connected and accessible, right where you need it.
