How To Extend USB Cable

Data transfer from one device to another is usually fast, but standardusb cables are usually short.The longer the distance between each device, the less effective the standardusb connections are.Extension cables, extenders, network converters, and wirelessusb allow you to expand the range of your peripherals.The guide shows how to use each device.

Step 1: You need to remove one end of your cable.

Your computer is connected to this end.The end is called the A.The end is called B.It looks like a B.

Step 2: Attach the male end of the cable to the female end.

Step 3: Attach the male end of the extension cable to the furthest away device.

Both the standard and extension cables have the same male ends.If you want to support connections that are less than 3 m in distance, you can use theusb extension cables.Depending on your need, extension cables come with single and multiple port support.

Step 4: Attach the extender's transmitter to the computer port.

The port on the other end of the transmitter can be converted into an Ethernet port.

Step 5: Attach your peripheral device to the extender's receiver with a standardusb cable.

Plug the other end of the cable into the receiver's port.It is possible to support distances of up to 164 feet (50 m).The length is dependent on the length of the cable you use.Data can be transferred further distances with the help of the Ethernet cables.

Step 6: One end of your cable needs to be disconnected.

Attach it to the USB port.

Step 7: You need to connect a cable to the port.

Attach the other end of the cable to the device.When you want to connect your device to a network, you should use theusb overip devices.Every other device on the network will be able to access it.The distance depends on the length of the cable.

Step 8: The wireless transmitter needs to be connected to a hub device.

A hub device is a computer that connects to other devices in close proximity.

Step 9: Permissions are set for all of your devices.

All the devices that need it can be accessed with theusb signal.Multiple wireless devices in a close proximity to a network can use a device connected directly to the wireless transmitter.These support distances can be extended beyond that.It's not a good idea to go over 32.8 feet (10 m).
