Lindy 42679 — 60 m 4-Port USB 2.0 Cat.6 Extender (Transmitter + Receiver Kit)
Up to 60 m over one network cable4x USB 2.0 ports at the far endTransmitter and receiver includedPlug and play, any OS
The Lindy 42679 is a complete USB 2.0 extender kit: a transmitter that plugs into the computer and a receiver with four USB-A ports at up to 60 metres away, joined by a standard Cat.5e or Cat.6 cable you run yourself. It is made for the keyboard, mouse, printer or camera that has to sit in another room from the PC, in a classroom, shop floor or meeting room. Despite the distributor’s description, article 42679 is the full kit, not the transmitter alone.
Compatibility — check before buying:
This is USB 2.0: everything at the far end runs at up to 480 Mbps, so a USB 3.0 drive works but at USB 2.0 speed. The link cable is not included — you need one straight-through Cat.5e, Cat.6 or better cable up to 60 m; the RJ45 sockets are for that cable only, not for a network. The receiver needs its 5 V power supply (included) at the far end, so plan a mains socket there. The transmitter has a fixed 12 cm USB-A cable. The kit contains one USB hub, so it counts as one tier in the USB chain limit of seven.
Best For
✓ Printers and scanners in another room
✓ Keyboard and mouse for a PC locked in a cabinet
✓ Webcams and conference cameras across a meeting room
✓ Point-of-sale peripherals away from the till PC
✓ Interactive whiteboards and touch panels
✓ Lab and workshop equipment with USB control
Key Features
60 metres on ordinary cable
Run a normal Cat.5e or Cat.6 patch or installation cable between the two units; no special USB cable, no repeaters, no drivers.
Four ports at the far end
The receiver is a four-port USB 2.0 hub in its own right, so a keyboard, mouse, printer and camera share the one link. Control, bulk, interrupt and isochronous transfers are supported.
Powered where it matters
The 5 V / 4 A multi-country supply plugs into the receiver, giving the remote devices their own power rather than drawing it back down 60 m of cable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight
This is the kit we point to when a USB device has to live further than a 5 m USB cable allows and running a mains socket at the far end is possible; the four-port receiver usually saves buying a second hub. If the device is a USB 3.0 camera or drive, a USB 3.0 extender or an active cable is the right tool instead. For the desk end, see our USB hubs, and for the far-end drives that will run at USB 2.0 speed, our USB flash drives. Not sure your computer, monitor or cable fits? Tell us the model and we check it before you order.
Buyer’s Guide
Buy it if
A keyboard, printer, camera or POS device must sit 10–60 m from the PC and you can run a Cat.5e/6 cable and power the receiver locally.
Skip it if
You need USB 3.0 speed at the far end, you cannot get mains power to the receiver, or you expected the network cable in the box.
Also consider
An active USB 3.0 extension cable for 5–15 m at full speed; a USB-over-IP extender if the link must cross a network switch.
