50m USB 2.0 CAT.5/6 Extender With Power Over CAT.5/6

Excellent piece of kit, very compact and well made.

I needed to connect a USB digital display to a device more than the 3m USB allows. The display is powered over the USB cable from the device it is normally connected to. Fortunately voltages matched and using the POE connection it also powers our display.

We connected all the devices over a 50m CAT6 cable and everything worked fine. Pay attention to the notes about using CAT6 and no switches hubs, wall plates etc.

Don't try this unless you are sure you remote device takes the same 24Vdc and will not overload the supplied power supply.
