TurtleAV USB 3.2 5Gbps Extender Kit

This kit carries USB 3.2 Gen 1 at up to 5Gbps over a single run of CAT6a cable, which is the fix for a camera, capture device, or storage array that has to sit farther from its host computer than a native USB cable allows. Transmitter and receiver are matched metal-enclosure units connected by network cable, with a short 1.5m USB cable on each end for the final hop to the actual device.

Power comes from an external AC supply rather than bus power, since the transmit and receive pair together can draw up to 68W across a full 100m run. The chassis is the same compact metal enclosure and Turtle Aqua finish used across TurtleAV's extender line, and ESD protection is rated for both air-gap and contact discharge on the field connections.
