  • "I installed the USB-C5-LC USB Extenders in our Gift Shop. They work fantastic! I'd like to order another one for the other touch screen. I had to plug in the power supply for the USB Extenders to make it work. That's all it took! Just a little more power was all the touch screen needed."

  • ""I would like to thank your sales associate, Tammy Kuhn, for being incredibly helpful and for the amount of information that she has shared.

    Tammy has helped me close sales on the RACKMUX® KVM drawers and XTENDEX™ CAT5 extenders. NTI's cable prices and selection is also better than almost any other company I have worked with.
