Note: Not all equipment is compatible with the Extreme USB 2.0 Extenders. For whatever reason,
some stuff just doesn’t work. The Extreme USB 2.0 Extenders do comply with the USB 1.1 and USB
2.0 specifications, but there are a number of factors that can affect the operation of USB devices over
distance.
