Cable Matters USB Over Ethernet Extender with Power Adapter up to 150 ft - Full USB 2.0 Support for Keyboard, Mouse, Webcam, and More

I have a 42U NetApp server rack in my home office, and two servers inside it. It's right by my door, with hard tile, so no carpet to run wires under. I ran two long HDMI cables and two Ethernet cables around the perimeter of the room to a KVM switch, and the Ethernet cables were used for two pairs of these devices. They work fantastically through the KVM, and I'm very pleased with the results. If you can't get them to pair, unplug BOTH ends AND the power adapter simultaneously to reboot them. If one is still receiving power, even from just USB on one end, they will NOT repair correctly! Found that out the hard way!

I'm using this for a remote PC so I needed to be able to plug a hub into the receiving end to have all my USB things work. I found that not all hubs want to be compatible with this, and you're best off checking device manager to make sure there are no USB device errors. Some stuff would work but still have an error in device manager. Once I found a "root" hub that didn't have issue I had no problems plugged in several mice, keyboards, GoXLR, Stream Deck, two other USB hubs, etc into it. I used a 50ft flat ethernet cable (still coiled up) as a worst-case-scenario test. I also verified that my mouse 1000hz poll rate was still working with this. The only con is that it is USB 2.0 not 3.0, but I figure if I really need full speed for an external hard drive or something I'll just go over to my remote computer and plug in directly. I was able to get 38MB/s from a USB3.1 drive through this, which is reasonably 100% USB 2.0 speed.

I have my gaming PC in another room to keep the heat and noise down. This gets the KB/mouse and headset to my desk in another room. Plugged this adapter into a monitor with USB hub and was able to plug in my headset, keyboard, and mouse without issue. Tested writing to a USB NVME drive while all other devices were plugged in and was able to get the full 33MB/s while being able to move the mouse and type without issue. I have a separate device to run the HDMI room to room and it supports keyboard and mouse only. I could not get the headset to work at all. Sucks having to run 2 network cables room to room but it makes a much cleaner desk not having a desktop on the desk or worse on the floor.

Just what I needed to extend my Usb security camera... though guess I didn't need the powered one.

Works on a run of Cat5 that exceeds 50 feet. Consistently maintains USB connection for over 5 weeks with no interruption.

These usb and hdmi over ethernet extenders work well...UNTIL THEY DON'T. The problem is the cheap power adapters which fail after about a year. Then you either find a replacement power adapter or replace the unit. I've bought many and they all repeatedly fail including this one.

We used these to extend the useable distance of several usb devices and they work very well. They seem to be well made and function just as described.

I have a UPS for our home server in a closet away from the actual tower. I tried a passive ethernet extender but I must have been right on the edge of the max length it would support because it world disconnect randomly. I would have to unplug/plug it to get it to relink. This though has had a solid connection since day one and has been in use for a couple months now. My run is about 25' with CAT5E.
