[THIN] Re: off topic: USB Cable Length

I know nothing about this company, but this is what a Google search came up with.

http://www.motu.com/techsupport/technotes/document.2002-05-29.5489874677

Maximum USB Cable Length

The max cable length MOTU recommends between a USB computer and USB interface is 5 meters (16.5 feet).

Longer runs can be achieved thru the use of POWERED USB HUBS. For extremely long runs,

MOTU has tested the device USB CAT5 EXTENDER referenced in the link below.

This allows USB runs of up to 100 feet!
