How to manage your computer from another space
It's quite simple. Position the computer near the door in the adjacent room. Bring the keyboard, mouse, monitor, and speakers close to the opposite side of the door. Thread the cables through the door opening.
No, you should either use one long USB cable or a short one then attach the extension to it. This alternative might also work and is more affordable. I don't recall the specific cables we used, but we did use a long USB cable at a hospital while working there to connect to a room with an external computer. Anything over 12 eet of standard fUSB cable can cause problems, as we experienced with many printer and scanner issues from people using long cables.
thanks for your help. i bought a 50ft usb 3.0 cable with a repeater and its working flawlessly for what i need. i don't even have to add additional power source. thanks alot.
