Extron is now shipping its UCS 910 Series of twisted pair USB extenders, giving integrators a new option for extending high-speed USB connectivity over longer distances in professional AV environments.
Designed to send USB data from peripheral devices to a host computer over CAT 6A, the UCS 910 Series supports transmission distances of up to 330 ft (100 m) while maintaining compatibility with USB 3 and earlier standards. Supporting data rates of up to USB 5Gbps, the solution is aimed at deployments where reliable, high-performance USB extension is essential.
The UCS T 911 transmitter features a USB-C host connection and can be powered either from the receiver or locally with an optional power supply, while the UCS R 912 receiver includes a two-port USB hub with both USB-C and USB-A ports for connecting remote peripherals. Together, the system is designed to simplify the integration of devices such as cameras, videobars, annotation tools, interactive displays, headsets and speakers across larger spaces.
According to Extron, the UCS 910 Series is suited to a wide range of environments including classrooms, lecture halls, training rooms, courtrooms, conference rooms and other collaborative spaces where USB peripherals need to be positioned away from the host system without sacrificing performance.
For complete deployments, the UCS TR 910 Kit bundles the transmitter, receiver, power supply and ZipClip brackets, allowing the units to be securely mounted in furniture, behind displays or under desks for a cleaner installation.
