Overview

The KanexPro EXT-USB2100M extends USB 2.0 at 480Mbps up to 100 meters (328ft) over a single Cat5e/6 cable — delivering two USB-A ports at the remote end for webcams, touch screens, printers, HID devices, and USB hubs. Completely plug-and-play with no driver installation required, the EXT-USB2100M is the straightforward USB extension solution for AV integrators and IT managers who need reliable peripheral reach without 5Gbps overhead.

Backward compatible with USB 1.1, it works with the broadest range of USB peripherals and is backed by KanexPro’s 3-year parts and labor warranty.

Why only 2 USB ports on the receiver?
Two ports cover the majority of USB 2.0 use cases. Connect a USB hub to one port to expand to additional devices.
Will this work with my USB webcam for Zoom or Teams calls?
Yes — USB 2.0 webcams are the ideal use case. Fully plug-and-play, no drivers needed.
Will it work over existing Cat5e infrastructure?
Yes — supports Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6a up to 100m/328ft.
Is it backward compatible with USB 1.1 devices?
Yes — fully backward compatible with USB 1.1 at native speeds.
Does it need power on both ends?
No — Power over Cable means only one 12V/1A adapter is needed at either the transmitter or receiver end.
No device recognized at the receiver — how to troubleshoot?
Verify Cat5e/6 cable is firmly connected at both ends. Confirm power LED is green on both units. Ensure cable does not exceed 100m.
