Troubleshooting FAQ
- Check if you have plugged in the receiver with the included power adapter.
- Try connecting the transmitter to another USB port on your PC.
- Check if the “Power” and the “Status” LED indicators (on both the transmitter and the receiver) are in normal status (solid on/blinking). If not, please check if you have connected the Cat cable properly.
- Try connecting the USB devices to the PC directly without using the USB extender. Then check if the USB connection works.
- Try re-plugging the USB cable between the transmitter and your PC.
- Try re-plugging in the receiver with the included power adapter.
- Try connecting the USB devices to the PC directly without using the USB extender. Then check if the USB connection works.
- Use a new Cat cable, or check if your cable meets the standard. It is recommended to use a Cat5E/6/6A/7 cable, instead of Cat5 or flat cable.
- Check if the total length of your cable is within 80m/260ft.
- Check if the connectors at both ends of the cable meet the IEEE T568B standard.
- Try crimping your Cat cable connectors according to the IEEE T568B standard.
- If you need to use patch cables at both ends, the length should be as short as possible, no more than 5m/16ft. Please note that the total length of the patch cables and the Cat cable should not be over 80m/260ft.

Mind your CATx cable specs
For the CATx cable, I got a 175′ shielded, CAT6a cable from L-Com with 23AWG wiring. AV Access’ 196ft spec did not specify how good the cable needed to be to make a 196′ run successful, so I went with a 25′ shorter, but high quality, cable. I got the CAT6a to future-proof, in case I wanted to go with a USB 3.0 extender down the road.
This cable was not successful in enabling my laptop to see all USB components on the other end of the extender (astrophotography gear), and I grabbed about 100′ of scrap CAT5 that I found in my garage and it worked.
I have yet to have the CAT6a cable tested formally, though I can attest the wiring is all intact with all circuits. I consider L-Com to be upper echelon when it comes to cable, and they test their stuff before shipping.
It was suggested to me that the power supply the AV Access product came with was insufficient at 1A, but I found that the 100′ cheap CAT5 cable passed all data even without the power plugged in to the RX box.
Once working, the AV Access system works beautifully. Best advice I can give:
Just get the product first, test with a short CATx cable for good measure, and set yourself up to be able to return a longer CATx cable if it doesn’t work for whatever reason.

I’ve tried a handful of USB extenders and this one has been by far the most stable over a 150ft run. I tried it with both Cat5e and Cat6, both worked equally well.

I’m using to extend a hd camera about 110′. I’ve had zero issues with it so far. Setup is quick and easy. No software issues. And most importantly no lag! I’m happy with it.

Winter astrophotography can be a pain in the butt, especially if you have to freeze your buns off outside for hours. So, I wanted to find a way to control my telescope, focuser, and camera from inside the cozy warmth of my house, which is like 50 feet away from my setup.
I came up with a sweet solution: I mounted a control box at the telescope site and plugged in my USB cables for control and camera imaging. Then, I ran a 50-foot ethernet cable to another box inside and connected my computer’s USB cable. Easy peasy.
I fired up SharpCap software and everything connected like a charm, even in freezing temps. I’ve used this setup a few times now and it’s been super reliable, way better than the shaky Wi-Fi connection I had before.
It’s awesome being able to control everything from indoors, without risking frostbite or losing feeling in my fingers. Of course, make sure to secure the cables and avoid tripping hazards.

As an AV tech volunteer for a small church, I recently faced a problem with the digital mixer Presonus StudioLive 32R’s USB 2.0 port. The distance between the mixer and the PC was over 100ft, which exceeded the USB 2.0 length limit specification, and even with an active repeater USB 2.0 extension cable, the PC would sometimes lose contact with the mixer due to signal issues.
To overcome this issue, I purchased a USB extender over ethernet and a 100ft CAT 7 cable to prevent EMI. The setup was plug-and-play, and everything has been working flawlessly.
I highly recommend these adapters if you need a USB connection to your PC and it exceeds the USB 2.0 length limit.

I’ve been using two sets of this USB extension solution for my church’s audio setup, and I’m very satisfied with their performance. I needed to connect USB devices located on the stage to the PlayAudio 12 system in the equipment rack, which is about 25 feet away. These extension cables work perfectly for this purpose.
I use one set to send multi-track audio from a computer to the PlayAudio 12, and the other set to connect a MIDI keyboard controller to the same system. Both setups work flawlessly without any issues.
One thing to keep in mind is the power budget of the devices you’re connecting. The specification states that the extension cable can power up to two USB devices that require 500mA each, but the power supply is rated at 1A (1000mA), so the actual power capacity may be limited.

I recently needed to extend my USB connection about 50ft from my Mac Studio base unit. In the past, I had used a long active USB cable with my previous Macs, but when I tried it with the Mac Studio, only my mouse was recognized and the keyboard didn’t work. After trying various troubleshooting options without success, I decided to try this USB extender since I already had a spare cable run available. I connected the transmitter and receiver, plugged in the Ethernet cable, and was pleasantly surprised to find that all 4 USB ports worked immediately. It’s now been running flawlessly for two to three weeks, and I’m very satisfied with my purchase.

I’m very happy with this USB extender, which has proven to be a reliable and sturdy device. I use it to connect USB AV devices that are located near my TV in the front of my den to a full-sized floor standing PC at the back of the room, which serves as my multimedia hub. I have a webcam and a USB drive connected to the extender, and I’m able to achieve transfer rates of between 300 and 380 Mbps across a 50-foot Cat5 cable from my drive.
My particular use case involves a standalone Avermedia DVR that is hooked up to the TV and records to a WD 1 TB drive. I typically record about a week’s worth of programming that I’m interested in, and then I swap the drive to the USB extender, copy the files over to the PC at the back, and swap the drive back. The PC display is also connected to the TV via a 50-foot HDMI cable, and I use a wireless keyboard and mouse for control. With this setup, the only thing I need to do from my sofa is to swap the drive.
Setting up the USB extender is a breeze. Simply plug the transmitter into a USB port on the PC, connect the transmitter and receiver to the Cat5 cable, connect the power adapter and USB devices to the receiver, and you’re good to go! Overall, I’m very satisfied with the performance and convenience of this USB extender, and I would definitely recommend it to others.
