Extending the USB cable

[Nitrogen]

Is it possible to extend a USB cable to over 5 meters? (connected to a web-cam) I am told the interference after 5 meters is too bad to allow the camera to function properly, perhaps if I connected it to a coaxel cable?

Nitrogen, I don't know if you're still around, but here's a site that advertises a USB hub that can extend total length from the CPU to 100 feet with CAT5. Kinda pricey, though.
