Review on πŸ’» Monoprice USB Extender: Reliable CAT5E/CAT6 Connection up to 150ft by Mike Snedeker

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Worked great to monitor a backup battery in another room.

I have a backup battery in my network cabinet. I wanted to control it from my laptop, so I connected one of the USB extenders to my laptop, which connects to the RJ45 port. I then unplugged the Category 5e cable from the switch, plugged it into another USB extender, and then plugged it into the backup battery. Now I can monitor my backup battery without having to take my laptop to check its status. The distance between the two devices is about 30 feet.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • No power
