USES of USB Over Network Adapter / Extender
- Used to extend the working range of USB cables
- Ideal for long runs through walls
- Use with USB printers, scanners, webcams, cameras, mice & keyboards
ADVANTAGES of USB Over Network Adapter / Extender
- Can extend the working range of up to 4 USB devices up to 50m
- Normal working range of USB 2.0 cables is 5m & USB 3.0 is 3m, so the advantages are clear
DISADVANTAGES of USB Over Network Adapter / Extender
- It operates over CAT5e / CAT6 using USB specification 1.1, which has a max transfer rate of 12Mbps
- It is a point to point USB over CAT5 adapter and must be run directly
- It cannot operate in conjunction with a router or network switch
- USB has a max. power output and this will apply here also
- For example, don't expect to connect a few USB powered external hard drives and expect them to work
- They will be drawing too much current in this example
- Think simple and low power
- A mouse, keyboard & memory stick
- That type of setup should work OK
- Alternatively using mains powered external hard drives and using the USB over ethernet extenders for transferring data should work OK too
- It's the power requirements you need to watch out for rather than the data transfer aspect
