100 ft Active USB 3.0 Extension Cable

This active extension cable stretches a USB 3.0 connection up to 100 ft using a Type A male-to-female layout. Three integrated signal boosters maintain data integrity over the full length. The product ships new and targets users who must place peripherals far from the host computer.

5.0 Gbps Speed Limit and USB 2.0 Fallback

The link tops out at 5.0 Gbps and drops to USB 2.0 or 1.1 rates when connected to older ports. The 22 AWG copper conductors and multi-layer shielding reduce interference, but the USB 3.0 specification itself caps throughput at this level regardless of cable quality.

Three Boosters Require External Power

The three built-in amplification chipsets draw power from the included USB power supply, so an outlet or powered hub must be available at the far end. Without that supply the boosters cannot operate and the 100 ft reach will not be reliable.

Questions about this item

Which length of the BFKK USB 3.0 active extension cable should I choose for my setup?

The cable is available from 10 ft to 100 ft; pick the shortest length that reaches your device because each extra foot adds resistance and the 100 ft version uses three signal boosters to maintain the 5.0 Gbps rating.

What does the 5.0 Gbps headline speed actually deliver when the cable is plugged into my computer?

You can expect up to 5.0 Gbps transfer rates with USB 3.0 hosts and devices; the link falls back to USB 2.0 or 1.1 speeds if either end only supports those older standards.

How does the USB 3.0 Type-A interface limit what I can connect at the far end of the 100 ft run?

The Type-A male-to-female connectors carry standard USB 3.0 signals, so any USB 3.0, 2.0 or 1.1 peripheral — hard drive, printer, webcam, headset, game console — will work, but the port cannot supply more power than the included USB power supply provides.
