Gefen Delivers Wireless USB 2.0 Connectivity up to 100 Feet in Distance
CHATSWORTH, CA – No cables are required to transmit USB 2.0 signals up to
100 feet in distance with the new Wireless USB Extender from Gefen.
This sender/receiver system delivers cable-free USB connectivity and is
designed to offer a useful, plug and play method of removing USB devices
from the computer station. It is effective in extending typical computer
peripherals such as keyboard/mouse and printer with full operational
functionality using a radio transmission based on 802.11a, b, g, n and
Extreme USB technologies.
An ideal solution for accessing the computer and powering devices in remote
locations where running wires is undesirable, the cable-free extension
solution transmits data at speeds up to 54 Mbps, providing an attractive
alternative to wired solutions.
The product requires no installation of USB drivers so the set-up is
simplified, requiring a short cable connection of the sender to the
computer, and the wireless 4-port hub/receiver to the extended USB devices.
A wireless transmission between sender and receiver replaces the cables of
yesterday; 5v power supplies drive local and remote operation.
The Gefen Wireless USB Extender works well for cross-platform computer
systems including Mac OS X, Windows XP, Windows VISTA and Linux.
MSRP: $399
