I'd like to extend my keyboard and mouse, using one of these cables with a ( powered near keyboard/mouse) USB 2 hub. Any experience with this config?

I believe this will work just fine. The only problems I ever had was when I tried to use the camera.

no problem connecting keyboard and/or mouse via the hub. However keyboard and/or mouse may require software installation.

What exactly to you have that is connected to your computer that is powered by the USB? Keyboards, Mice, Game Controllers, Flash Drives, USB Memory Card Readers, all these things should work just fine. External Hard Drives I am not sure about, but If your External Hard Drive is Powered though a AC Adapter (Or DC Adapter if You live outside the USA) I am guessing it should be OK, but if you are not sure or uncomfortable about hooking up a hard drive to a USB extension cord like this one. Then you are better off just using the shorter USB cable that the External Hard Drive came with.

Sorry, I have no knowledge or experience with either of these devices. It works fine with ordinary wired USB keyboards and mice.

Depends. If not use an USB extension cable. USB male to USB female. My tower is right above my keyboard on my desk and the mouse is beside the keyboard and no extension cable is needed.

I bought a case with a keyboard and usb connectors and it all works. I am able to use the keyboard and also able to attach a mouse using the USB. I hope this helps.

I know of no reason why this wouldn't work. The USB hub should work with any USB device. I use the hub with a mouse, a keyboard, a Zune player, and a drive.

If the USB hub is 2.0 and not a 3.0 it should work fine. I had mine plugged into a 3.0 port which Logitech told me was not compatible with this keyboard. They sent me, free of charge, a USB extender cable which seems to have taken care of the problem.

I use a Logitech Optical Mouse, a USB connection, and have no complaints. What the difference is with a "unifying" mouse/keyboard is unknown to me.

I didn't have luck with it at all. Then I got a Unitek 3+1 port USB3.0 Hub, also off Amazon...super cheap powered hub and works great, no problems

The cable itself extends about 5.5 inches from the usb port on the pc to the actual hub. The hub adds another 1.5 inches to the total length. I hope this helps. :)

I'm using the unit with an old style tactile -feel keyboard and a USB mouse. Works flawlessly. As to your specific use, the only way is to contact the manufacturer of both pieces of equipment; or buy it and try it.

Negative, the USB 2.0 ports are simply for add on's. I use one for my mouse, and a second for my wireless air mouse when I'm reclining on my sofa in the office.

I'm not the seller, sorry. I'd suggest looking up some installation guides because it can be a little tricky I had to buy a powered USB hub when I got mine.

Yes, I have A USB hub that I used with a mouse, keyboard, and flash drive all at the same time.
