One component of a complete solution that, when paired with a transmitter (sold separately), conquers USB length limits. This solution extends the signal of a USB device to a host computer up to 150 feet, enabling you to place your USB projector, interactive whiteboard, camera, printer, web cam, hub or other USB device exactly where you want it! The USB extender dongle is powerful yet simple, with no drivers to install or special software required. It's also compatible with any computer that supports USB. The overall plug-and-play solution consists of this wall plate receiver, and your choice of a compatible transmitter that is sold separately: the Decora-compatible wall plate, the dongle or the keystone insert that fits C2G RapidRun or other standard keystones. Customize the configuration to your specific needs! This versatility is ideal for applications where you need flexibility at your computer/source side. The complete solution is connected via a standard Cat5, Cat5E, or Cat6 UTP cable (not included) that provides easy installation. Because the USB extender dongle is bus-powered, no external power source is required.
