I got one of these today and gave it a run this evening. I ran the webcam off a powered hub on the remote end and apart from my RJ45 connectors having broken off locking pins it all went well. I did manage to disconnect the camera a few times.

I've not managed to get the laptop talking to the mount yet so I did not test running two USB devices at a time. I was also using a relatively short cable - 3 meter rather than the possible 60M.

It looks like a great way to manage cabling between the telescope and laptop.
