USB Extender: No longer limited by distance, USB devices can be placed at remote locations from a host computer

The distance barrier can now be overcome with the advent of a USB Extender. USB peripheral devices can be placed up to a distance of 150 feet away from the source computer if they are connected via these extenders. Connections are secured via Cat5 cables making the technique of extension simple as well as economical. By allowing one to four USB peripheral devices to be placed in remote locations, this product has the benefit of providing secure placement of computers. No external power adapters are required to power these devices and since it does not require any additional software, the units are plug and play ready.

Compatible with any USB device, this extender is compliant with the USB 1.0 and 1.1 specifications. The enhanced USB 2.0 Extender comes in two models: a Cat5 version that allows for distances up to 330 feet and a fiber optic version which allows extension of peripherals up to 10 kms via single mode or multi mode fiber cable. These devices are patented by Icron’s ExtremeUSB technology. Operating systems such as Windows, Mac-OS, Linux and Sun are all supported by these extenders and are ideal for I/O devices, printers, scanners, web cams, hard drives, flash drives and mp3 players. There is no loss of data as this device transmits signals in real time making it appear as though the peripherals are locally connected.

Another milestone in the field of extenders has also been achieved with the launch of a Wireless USB Extender. Just like other extenders this product consists of a receiver and a transmitter unit with the former being connected to the peripherals and the latter to the computer. However, unlike other types of extenders, they use wireless 802.11 type connections to link the sender to the receiver. The remote unit has a four port USB 2.0 Hub and supports additional hub connections for more devices. Using this device, data of up to 54 mbps can be transmitted without any downtime. Users can place a USB computer in a clean, secure area and access it from any convenient, remote location. This very feature has made the USB extender an ideal solution in facilities such as Security agencies, Government and military applications, remote monitoring and training centers.

What is the cost of replacing a USB port to desktop computer?

I was uploading photos to my computer via USB port when the cord snagged and got ripped out of the USB port. The small plastic piece broke off, and two of the four metal strips are completely bent out of whack. I got a message on my computer that there was a power surge. What would be the cost of replacing this? FYI I still have one other USB port, right below the one that broke, but it too does not seem to be working.

well if its a desktop computer it would be pretty cheap but all the usb ports would be in the back u would have to get a usb pci slot card to put in the back but that would be the cheapest under $50

The 10 most surprising things about the iPad
The UPS guy handed me my new iPad just a few hours ago, and yes--the jumbo-sized screen is as glorious as they say, and I was shocked by how good HD videos looked. But I was also surprised by how heavy the iPad feels, and if you were hoping to read e-books all day under the clear, bright blue sky, well...bad news, folks. These and more iPad surprises, coming right up.
