24-metre USB 2.0 extender hub

The STARTECH U02442-USB-EXTENDER combines a 24-metre extension cable with an integrated hub to place up to six USB 2.0 devices far from the host computer. It suits offices, classrooms or industrial stations where peripherals must sit across a large room or behind equipment racks.

Practical limits of USB 2.0 over 24 metres

USB 2.0 signalling is specified for much shorter links, so the extender uses active circuitry to maintain data integrity at the full 24-metre length. Bandwidth remains capped at the standard 2.0 rate, and total power available to downstream devices is limited by the single upstream connection.

Check host port power and device current draw

Before ordering, verify that the host USB port can supply enough current for the hub itself plus every attached peripheral. Devices that demand high bus power may exceed the shared budget and require a separately powered hub instead.

Questions about this item

Which version of the STARTECH U02442-USB-EXTENDER should I choose for a 24 m run?

This model is a single 24 m USB 2.0 extension cable with an integrated hub; there are no alternative lengths or versions listed for this part number.

What does the 2.0 rating mean for real-world use with this extender?

It signals USB 2.0 performance across the 24 m link, so connected devices operate at high-speed rates rather than the faster speeds of newer standards.

How does the USB 2.0 interface cap performance on this 24 m cable?

The USB 2.0 interface limits the link to high-speed signalling, so throughput and power delivery stay within that standard's limits over the full 24 m.
