Regular USB cables only allow users to connect from a USB host to devices within the range of a few meters. For example, a standard passive USB 3.0 copper cable normally can only go up to 3 meters. As a major developer of USB extension solutions, Newnex has developed a number of extender products to break the length barrier for USB applications.
Newnex’s FireNEX™ series of USB extenders are featured with the most advanced repeater technology. The fiber-optic repeater is capable of extending USB SuperSpeed signals up to 500 meters via a single fiber cable.
