1. 제품 오버view
The LINDY USB 2.0 CAT5/6 4 Port Extender is designed to extend the distance between a USB peripheral device and a host computer by up to 50 meters. This system comprises two main units: a local unit (Transmitter) that connects to the computer and a remote unit (Receiver) that connects to up to four USB devices. The connection between these two units is established using a standard, low-cost CAT5/5e/6 network cable (not included).
A key feature of this extender is Power over CAT5/6 (PoC), which means only the Transmitter/Local unit requires a power supply. This allows the Receiver/Remote unit and its connected devices to be positioned more flexibly without needing a separate power source. Both the Transmitter and Receiver units include integrated mounting brackets for convenient installation.
