Yealink USB2-EXT-5M, 5-Meter Active USB 2.0 Extension Cable (330000102001)
The USB2-EXT-5M is an active USB 2.0 extension cable that extends a connected USB device by an additional 5 meters, without loss of signal quality. It supports data rates up to 480 Mbps and is compatible with both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 devices.
Installation is plug-and-play, requiring no additional drivers, and the cable includes a universal external power source with international plug adapters to boost the extended USB signal over the full 5-meter run. Before ordering, confirm the room's cable run distance fits within 5 meters, since longer runs may require the separate USB2CAT5E-EXT solution, which extends USB connectivity up to 40 meters over CAT5e cabling.
Key Specifications

- Compatibility is limited to standard USB 1.1/2.0 peripherals. Confirm the room's cable run distance before ordering.
Design Considerations
