The Black Box IC101A is a passive USB 1.1 extension cable designed to overcome the standard 16-foot (5-meter) limitation for USB peripherals. This allows you to position devices like keyboards, mice, or low-bandwidth USB printers further from the host computer or USB hub, providing flexibility in workstation or equipment rack setups where direct connection is not feasible. Its simple plug-and-play operation requires no drivers or external power, making integration straightforward.
This extender is compatible with all USB 1.1 devices and hosts. It supports data transfer rates up to 12 Mbps, suitable for standard USB keyboards, mice, serial adapters, and other low-speed peripherals. It is not intended for high-bandwidth devices such as webcams, external hard drives, or high-resolution scanners that require USB 2.0 or higher speeds.
The IC101A functions as a passive extension cable. For optimal performance and signal integrity, ensure the total cable length (host to extender, plus extender, plus extender to device) does not exceed the USB 1.1 specification limit of 16 feet (5 meters). Avoid routing the cable near high-power electrical lines that could introduce interference.
