Can you confirm that USB extenders like the ones used for GPU risers would work?

It would be great to be able to use all the ports of a USB hub, maybe you can send an image of your setup with the USB extenders.


What about having an USB hub like this one https://www.amazon.com/ORICO-Aluminum-Charging-Adapter-Indicator/dp/B00NAMKDDY/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1512401765&sr=8-15&keywords=orico+usb+hub

And using usb cable extenders to fit all the keys?

Would it be a problem to use usb extenders?

The hub has enough power - the issue with USB extenders is that they're not powered, so its possible they can't pull the power needed. (It's like using an unpowered PCIe riser on a GPU rig.)

Most USB extenders are powered. I just use all the extra USB 3 cables I have from my USB GPU risers and they work great.
