Extension KVM Vivolink VLUSB3EXT100D USB 3.0, 100 m

The Vivolink VLUSB3EXT100D is a USB 3.0 receiver (Rx) designed to extend and centralize USB connectivity up to 100 metres over a single Cat5e/6/7 cable. Based on HDBaseT 3.0 technology, the device supports data transfer speeds up to 5 Gbit/s and accepts up to four USB devices such as cameras, speakers, touchscreens or other USB 3.0 peripherals. The receiver houses the remote power supply so connected devices receive sufficient power while the transmitter is bus-powered by the computer. The extender is built in a durable metal housing and its compact footprint enables space-saving installation.

Advantages

The VLUSB3EXT100D supports four USB 3.0 ports over a single network cable, enabling high-speed data transfer up to 5 Gbit/s and reliable remote connectivity. Using HDBaseT 3.0 ensures stable signal transmission to distances up to 100 m. Remote power at the receiver supplies sufficient current for a wide range of USB peripherals, while the metal enclosure provides mechanical durability and compact installation.

Suitable for

• Meeting rooms — connecting cameras, microphones, speakers and touch panels
• Workstations where peripherals need to be placed remotely from the host PC
• Classrooms and lecture halls requiring remote USB devices
• Control rooms and AV installations with centralized computing
