FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Chicago, IL (January 13, 2009)–Tripp Lite, a world-leading manufacturer of power and connectivity solutions, has introduced two new, all-in-one USB Over Cat5 Extender Hubs (Models U224-1R4-R and U224-4R4-R).

The U224-1R4-R consists of a 3-port USB 2.0 hub and a 1-port remote receiver. The U224-4R4-R consists of a transmitter and a 4-port USB remote hub. Both models enable peripheral devices to be located up to 150 feet from a computer using inexpensive Cat5e/Cat6 cabling. Each includes an AC adapter to supply power to the remote end of the installation. No drivers or special software are required to install and use the extenders.

The U224-1R4-R enables up to four peripherals to be connected to a single computer (three local and one remote). Users simply plug the hub into the USB port of a computer, connect three peripherals to the hub, run Cat5e/Cat6 cable from the hub to the remote receiver, and connect a fourth peripheral to the receiver. The U224-4R4-R enables four remote devices to be connected to a single computer. Users simply plug the transmitter into the USB port of a computer, run Cat5e/Cat6 cable from the transmitter to the remote hub, and connect four peripherals to the hub.

“Our new USB Over Cat5 Extender Hubs are all-in-one solutions,” said David Posner, Tripp Lite’s Director of Product Marketing for Connectivity Products. “This offers users a significant advantage over similar products currently on the market, which require the purchase of separate components. And because they also offer plug-and-play convenience, they’re simple to install and use.”
