RA2 Select Repeater specs show it draws 5Vdc 100mA.
Included power supply is 5Vdc 550mA.

Anyone use a USB power extender or other power supply? I'd like to locate repeater in a closet where no power exists. I can run low voltage wire back to rack.

Its just power. As long as you account for the voltage drop, no problem remotely locating the power supply.

In my own home, I have cut the power adapter and ran it over cat5 ~60ft. It's been this way for 4+ years.
