The USB Extender Series enables USB peripheral devices to be remotely located up to 450 feet (135 meters) from the host computer. The extender consists of a transmitter and receiver set that are linked using a single, standard CAT 5/5e/6 or CAT 7 cable. The receiver features a built-in, active four port hub that supplies 5 Volts, 500 mA to each port to power attached devices. This allows peripherals such as smart phones, webcams, personal media players, and mass storage devices to be connected and powered or charged at the same time. The USB Extender Series is ideal for use in applications utilizing the Extron Annotator and remote touchscreen displays, as well as applications that require the remote location of USB peripherals such as interactive whiteboards, keyboards, mice, and other human interface devices.
The USB Extender Series is available in three form factors that can be mixed and matched for optimum integration flexibility. The tabletop model is housed in a compact 1" quarter rack width metal enclosure, and is ideal for desktop, under desk, lectern, or rack mounting. The USB Extender AAP – Architectural Adapter Plate model, available in black or white, fits within a double-space AAP opening and provides a convenient and elegant architectural USB connectivity solution. The USB Extender D is a white, decorator-style wallplate that installs in a one-gang wall box.
All models feature an external universal power supply, replacement part # 70-775-01. Transmitters can also be powered directly from the USB host port.
