Important Notes:

• *The B-300 USB 1.1 model enables users to extend
USB devices up to 40M/131ft. Extension distances up to
85M/280ft may be achievable with low-speed HID devices
such as keyboards and mice.
• It is strongly recommended that the wiring pattern: TIA-
568B be used for extension of media.
• Extension length is reduced for each USB hub added to
the system. There is a 13.2M/43ft reduction in extension
distance for each USB hub added to the system. This
includes hubs added on the local extender or remote
extender side.
• The extender system cannot be daisy chained together
with additional extender systems. A system can have only
one local extender and one remote extender.
