Frequently Asked Questions
What is a USB extender switch and how does it work?
A USB extender switch transmits USB signals over long-distance cabling, allowing you to place USB devices far from your computer or control system. The C2G Superbooster uses CAT6a cabling to extend USB 3.2 Gen 1 connectivity up to 100 meters while maintaining full 5Gbps performance.
Can I use regular Cat6 cable instead of Cat6a?
For optimal performance and to achieve the full 100-meter range with reliable 5Gbps transmission, C2G recommends using CAT6a U/FTP cable. While Cat6 may work at shorter distances, Cat6a provides superior shielding and bandwidth capacity for professional applications.
What devices are compatible with the C2G Superbooster 2X4?
This USB 3.2 Gen 1 extender switch supports USB cameras, interactive whiteboards, document scanners, and other USB peripherals requiring high-speed data transmission. The 2X4 configuration allows flexible routing between multiple source and destination devices.
How far can I extend USB signals with this extender?
The C2G Superbooster 2X4 extends USB 3.2 Gen 1 signals up to 100 meters (328 feet) using a single CAT6a U/FTP cable, making it ideal for large conference centers, educational facilities, and broadcast environments.
