The ATEN UCE3250 4-port USB 2.0 Cat 5 Extender is a two-unit solution that functions as a USB hub and an extender, enabling connection of up to four USB peripherals at distances up to 50 metres over Cat 5/5e/6 cable. Housed in a durable metal casing with integrated wall-mounting, the compact black unit includes LED activity indicators and comes with a 50 m USB cable to support long-distance USB connectivity in industrial and office environments.

Advantages

The UCE3250 preserves data integrity over long cable runs by transmitting data in robust signal packets and provides remote power from the receiver unit to supply a range of USB devices such as flash drives, keyboards, mice, webcams, scanners and printers. Its metal housing and compact dimensions (63.3 mm W x 110.4 mm D x 24.1 mm H) offer durable, space-saving installation and reliable operation in various environments. LED activity indicators simplify status monitoring.

How to use

Connect the local unit to your computer’s USB port and run a Cat 5/5e/6 cable to the remote unit; alternatively use the supplied 50 m USB cable where applicable. Attach USB peripherals to the remote unit’s four USB 2.0 ports. Ensure the remote unit’s power supply is connected so that it can provide adequate power to connected devices. Check LED indicators to confirm link and activity status. No special drivers are typically required for standard USB devices.

Recommendations

For best results, use Cat 5e or Cat 6 cable in good condition, avoid running the cable alongside high-voltage lines, and verify peripheral power requirements—high-current devices (some external hard drives or certain printers) may need local powered hubs or their own power supply.
