RE: Extending USB Connections
Excuse
the blonde question :-)
but
why is their such a limitation on the length of cable for USB? - do they
use
very low voltages for their signalling, and as such this would deteriorate
over
any distance - say 15 metres?

It
just seems such a waste, that I can buy a reasonable colour web cam for
under
£50 and I could then have more than one connected to my pc, that they would
all
have to be within a few metres of node Zero!!

Most don't , but I'm sure
there's some that do ... somewhere ...

yeah, gotcha.

Are
there, in fact, USB extenders that work over

I'm
sure I've seen them around, but I've no idea where. Perhaps
someone
else has?
