Lindy 12m USB2.0 Extension Hub Kit 42783

The Lindy USB Active Extension Hub Pro is a high performance hub with active cable that allows access to four USB 2.0 peripherals over long distances. With support for data transfer speeds of up to 480Mbps this extension cable is perfect for transferring data volumes quickly and reliably.

This 12m extension hub can be used standalone or as part of the Lindy USB 2.0 Active Extension System Pro. This system is a modular solution that can combine multiple USB Active Extension Pro cables and a USB 2.0 Active Extension Pro hub to distribute USB signals to up to 4 devices at up to 60m.

The 8m and 12m cable and the 8m and 12m hub feature a single active repeater module to boost the USB signal. The 30m cable uses two repeaters. A fully deployed extension system is limited to a maximum of 60m and 4 repeater modules. Any combination of cables and a single hub can be connected providing the 60m / 4 repeater limit is not exceeded. The extension hub must always be the last segment of the extension system.

This hub features industry-proven active technology and locking connectors to ensure full signal integrity in the most demanding environments.
