Here at Bang & Olufsen Spider Skull Island, we have just tested a solution for over 70 feet. Should work well beyond that as well.

Power extended with CAT-V

Powered DVI Balun

Powered USB Balun

Have fun!

We've also distributed the BeoMaster 5 to multiple B&O video displays with full control.

That is the conclusion I reach from this, although I'm not certain what the practical limits are on the other 2 connections.

Does this mean BeoMaster 5 unit can be put 12m away from beoSound 5 main unit?

B&O have posted an announcement that they've tested a 12 meter, unpowered, USB extension cable. No other notes, and no supplier mentioned.

I know that this won't satisfy the 'Wireless!' crowd here, but it will make more options available for some.

Thought you'd like to know.
