## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has any one tried this for usb 3.0 equipment?**
A: from monoprice's website:
"Note that this adapter supports USB 1.0/1.1 speeds only. It is not compatible with USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 speeds. For best results, use shielded Cat6 cabling."

**Q: looking to power a Wyse camera, no data just power. Will this work?**
A: Why?? For just power, any USB dongle / charger / power wart and any USB extension cable will do. If you have PoE, use any PoE extractor with the appropriate voltage and a USB-A female (or adapter to get that.)

**Q: Does this work with ps4, xbox one, etc. controllers?  Already extend HDMI, need to get controllers (aside from IR) in other rooms.**
A: I bought these and just finished this project. My setup is the following:

ViewHD Advanced Low Profile HDMI Extender
Qty 2 Tripp Lite Cat6 Gigabit Solid Conductor Snagless
These monoprice usb extensions. 

I have the signal being split and then cloned over the solid core cat6 about 35 feet away. Solid core cat6 is the ONLY suggestion i would give. Skip the flat fancy looking cables. Run this cable and dont care about its color. Get the one that supports the POE as you can put the adapter right on back of tv using command strips  no extra power cord needed at Rx end.

Second, I plugged the monoprice usb into my xbox and then ran it about 45 ft using the cat6 cable and tested with a 10ft and 6ft braided usb cable. When i did the dry run test it worked flawlessly so I decided to do the full run as seeing the controller fired up and worked. ALWAYS TEST BEFORE RUNNING YOUR SETUP!!

The results? WELL....My testing didnt conclude the following...it works 95% great when vibration is turned off, with vibration turned on I think it sucks too much juice and causes the controller to "freeze" and disconnect on both usb cables i tried. I cant explain it otherwise because Ill turn off vibration and I can game on titanfall2 for 30-40 minutrs and then a random disconnect. 

So in the short, im going to test and see if its the controller /batteries next...otherwise Im not sure if I need to add in a POE injector midway.

Hope this helps, and if monoprice has any further input on my situation they can contact me.

I will tell you that Im a closet mcguyver that tried to do the best homework I could and so far this is the only hiccup i have. Audio caries through on the new setup too from the controller...its just bittersweet because streaming to my hardwired laptop had the same problems...lag, stutter and random controller disconnects.

Oh, and my xb1 is cat6 hardwired.

**Q: Can I use this product to connect a wireless router (CAT6) to PC (CAT6 / USB Extender) if PC is hardwired to distant modem?**
A: Probably not.  This product is intended to extend a USB connection, not extend a network connection.  BTW, it will not work for USB2 or USB3 connections.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect solution if your setup prevents you from connecting to personal network printers.
*by B***C on October 2, 2024*

These USB extenders work exactly as advertised. My printer is about 150 feet away from my desk, and my work laptop is locked down so it can no longer connect to any outside network, which meant I had to physically move my laptop next to the printer and connect a USB cable every time I needed something printed.To solve this, I ran Ethernet from my desk to the printer and used these Monoprice USB Extenders. They performed flawlessly when connected directly via Ethernet. I did hope to use my existing network switch, but unfortunately, the extenders didn’t work with that setup. However, I won’t deduct any points for that, as they have completely transformed my printing experience. Now I can print without having to move my laptop! Highly recommended!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No brainer for extending USB to other side of room
*by M***Z on September 21, 2024*

This adapter allowed me to use a CAT6 cable that I ran up into my suspended ceiling and over across the room to a legacy machine that can only connect via USB. No issues whatsoever.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works as advertised!
*by M***O on September 25, 2010*

I needed a long USB cable to connect a USB flash drive on the other side of the wall to a TV, but couldn't find any longer than 15 feet. So, I tried this product with a standard 25-foot CAT6 network cable between the two adapters, and it worked well! Worked with a USB wireless network adapter and USB flashlight, too.PROS: (1) Together with a network cable, it allowed me to get the USB cable length that I needed; (2) Worked as advertised for 25 feet (vendor says that it supports up to 150 feet); (3) Required cable is a standard network cable, instead of some proprietary product.CON: Supports USB 1.x, not any devices requiring USB 2.x or 3.x support.If this product worked with USB 1.x, 2.x, and 3.x, I would have given it 5 stars. Until I find a product that supports USB 2.x and 3.x, too, I would definitely purchase this product again when I need a long USB cable.
