The VERTIV USB 2.0 over Gigabit Ethernet LAN, built around Avocent USB6000 USB extender technology, is a high-performance solution designed for today’s multipurpose workspaces. It enables you to locate critical computing hardware away from the user workstation while preserving the authentic desktop experience users rely on every day. Whether you’re deploying in a data center, laboratory, manufacturing floor, or secure control room, this system delivers seamless connectivity by transmitting USB 2.0 signals over a single CATx cable or through a 1 Gbps IP network. The result is a powerful combination of device isolation, reduced workstation clutter, and improved security without compromising performance. By delivering transparent USB 2.0 operation, the extension remains invisible to the end-user, maintaining driver compatibility, device behavior, and the intuitive feel of a locally connected peripheral. In short, it provides a practical, scalable way to centralize USB-enabled hardware while keeping the user experience fast, reliable, and familiar. The user-friendly nature of the design means rapid deployment, flexible topologies, and easy maintenance — enabling IT teams to innovate with confidence while preserving core workflow continuity.
- Extends USB 2.0 across CATx cables or a 1 Gbps IP network, allowing remote peripherals to behave exactly like locally attached devices without impacting host performance.
- Delivers transparent USB 2.0 operation, preserving native device drivers, features, and behavior so keyboards, mice, printers, and storage work as if they were plugged in directly.
- Supports a broad range of USB peripherals, from basic HID devices to storage drives, cameras, and print devices, making it ideal for desktops, labs, data centers, and industrial environments.
- Offers flexible deployment options with a compact transmitter/receiver pair that can be mounted in proximity to remote devices or tucked away in secure or noise-free zones.
- Designed for easy installation and maintenance, featuring plug-and-play functionality, hot-swappability of devices, and robust safety margins for busy work environments.
Technical Details of VERTIV USB 2.0 over Gigabit Ethernet LAN
- USB extension type: USB 2.0 high-speed (480 Mbps) passthrough for peripherals, enabling fast data transfer and smooth device operation.
- Link options: Transmit USB signals over a single CATx cable or route them through a 1 Gbps Ethernet network, offering flexible, scalable deployment paths.
- Operation model: Transparent USB 2.0 pass-through with no host-side software changes required, preserving standard USB behavior and driver compatibility.
- Device compatibility: Supports a wide array of USB devices including keyboards, mice, printers, flash drives, scanners, webcams, and other USB peripherals commonly used at the workstation.
- Form factor and integration: Modular transmitter and receiver units designed for easy installation in desks, racks, or secure locations, with minimal cabling and simple power arrangements where applicable.
how to install VERTIV USB 2.0 over Gigabit Ethernet LAN
- Plan your topology by identifying the host workstation, the remote USB device, and the preferred link path (CATx cable for direct USB extension or a 1 Gbps IP network for greater reach).
- Place the transmitter unit near the USB device you want to relocate and connect the device’s USB port to the transmitter’s USB interface.
- Run a CATx cable from the transmitter to the receiver if you are using a direct USB extension path; or ensure both units have access to the same 1 Gbps network if you are routing over Ethernet.
- Connect the receiver unit to the host workstation using a USB connection and link it to the same CATx cable or network so the host can enumerate the remote device as if it were local.
- Power the units according to the supplied guidelines and verify link status indicators; test the system by interacting with the remote device to confirm proper enumeration and responsiveness.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the primary use case for this USB extender? It enables you to place USB peripherals away from the user workstation while preserving the local desktop experience, making it ideal for data centers, laboratories, manufacturing floors, and secured environments where equipment must be physically separated from the user area.
- Does it support USB 3.0 devices? The system is designed for USB 2.0 extension. USB 3.0 devices may function, but performance will be limited to USB 2.0 speeds and compatibility can vary by device.
- Can I use this over a standard Ethernet network? Yes. The extender supports transmitting USB signals over a 1 Gbps IP network, provided the network path meets the required latency and reliability for USB 2.0 communication.
- Is any software installation required? No software drivers are required on the host computer; USB devices operate through native USB functionality via the extender, ensuring straightforward deployment and minimal IT overhead.
- What environments is this product best suited for? It is well-suited for data centers, control rooms, laboratories, and manufacturing environments where hardware must be isolated from the user workspace or centralized for security and maintenance purposes.
