Description USB Repeater over Category 5 Cable up to 164ft The USB Rover 2650 is a commercial grade product designed for end user applications. It provides all the flexibility of extended range USB in a ready-to-use package. The USB Rover 2650 is optimized for applications where two devices, such as a keyboard and mouse, need to be operated remotely. The USB Rover 2650 provides support for two remote devices and/or hubs.

Further Explanation... USB Rover products are composed of two separate units: the Local Extender (LEX) and the Remote Extender (REX). Conventional USB cables are used to connect the LEX unit to the host computer and to connect the remote USB device to the REX unit. Category 5 UTP cabling is used to connect the LEX and REX units over a distance of up to 50 meters. The USB Rover 2650 is powered from USB and delivers enough power at the remote unit to drive most USB devices.

Compatible with standard devices USB Rover products operate over standard Category 5 UTP cable (the same wiring used in Ethernet). The technology behind the product requires no additional software for either the computer or the target devices.
