Used for digital cameraes + mouse/ keyboard.
Does the job of extending your USB connection, but lowers your bandwidth. Stable.
Had two pair of these - no connection problems.

Comments about Iogear USB Ethernet Extender - Extension Cable System:
I bought these to use with a USB camera. They do not work with the camera I have. I am not sure if its just not sending enough power the 100 ft I have the camera away or what. There is an aux power port on the side but I can't get 5V 2A power out to it where I have it mounted.
I also tried with a mouse and it worked but the connections are really flakey. If there is any movement in the cable I lose the mouse and have to unplug it and plug it back in before it will work again. The connectors are not held well inside the casing.
