USB 2.0 Extender Over LAN, Driverless, Up to 100 m

A hundred metres is beyond repeaters and into building scale — and this extender is built for it: USB 2.0 speed across up to 300 ft (100 m) of LAN cable, delivering a real 17.9 MB/s over 100 m runs — 143.2 Mbps of usable throughput, honest numbers rather than headline claims. The device list it was built for reads like an integration catalog: laser printers, scanners, web cameras, external hard drives, CD/DVD burners and flash drives, plus applications in medical diagnostics and imaging, industrial automation and control, security, education and digital signage.

Operation is plug and play with no drivers needed — the host sees the remote device as if it were local — and A/C power for the receiver unit is included, because a hundred-metre run cannot feed a far device from bus power. All major operating systems are supported, including Windows, Mac and Linux. Compared with the 50 m USB 1.1 extender, this is the class to pick whenever the far device moves data in bulk — drives, burners, high-resolution scanners — while the 1.1 unit remains the economical choice for printers and input gear.

Key features

• USB 2.0 extender to 300 ft (100 m) over LAN cable
• 17.9 MB/s real throughput (143.2 Mbps) at 100 m
• Plug and play — no drivers needed
• A/C power for receiver included
• Windows, Mac and Linux supported

Specifications

An honest note on the numbers: USB 2.0’s 480 Mbps is the bus rate; over 100 m of extension the usable rate settles at the stated 17.9 MB/s — quoted openly here because integrators budget from real throughput, not spec sheets.

Typical applications

• Printers and drives across floors and wings
• Industrial automation and control lines
• Medical imaging and digital signage deployments
