SMUGDESK 100 Feet Active USB 3.0 Extension Cable Male to Female with 4 Chipsets and 5V/2A Power Adapter
Active USB 3.0 extension cable reaches 100 feet with four built-in chipsets and an included 5 V / 2 A power adapter to prevent signal loss at 5 Gbit/s
- Up to 5 Gbit/s transfer speed — ten times faster than USB 2.0 480 Mbit/s
- 100 ft active cable with four built-in signal-boosting chipsets prevents signal loss
- Multi-layer shielding minimises electromagnetic interference for reliable data transmission
- Plug-and-play with no driver required — works with printers, cameras, drives, hubs and more
- Included 5 V/2 A power adapter supplies stable current when device draw exceeds 900 mA
Extended reach for USB 3.0 peripherals
This 100 feet active USB 3.0 extension cable connects computers or Windows tablets to distant devices. It uses four built-in chipsets to boost signals so data travels the full length without loss. The male-to-female design plugs directly into standard ports. A 5V/2A power adapter is included for stable operation.
Shielded construction with external power option
Multi-layer foil and braided shielding reduces electromagnetic interference along the entire run. The cable draws bus power for low-current devices but requires the supplied adapter when connected peripherals exceed 900mA. Plug-and-play operation means no driver installation is needed for printers, cameras, hubs, drives or input devices.
5Gbit/s maximum throughput
The link tops out at USB 3.0 speed of 5Gbit/s, roughly ten times faster than USB 2.0 at 480Mbit/s. This bandwidth ceiling decides whether the cable suits high-throughput tasks like moving large media files or backing up hard drives. It remains backward compatible with slower USB 2.0 and 1.1 devices.

Questions about this item
What data rate does the USB 3.0 interface cap at on this 100 foot cable?
The USB 3.0 interface on this cable caps at 5 Gbit/s, roughly ten times the 480 Mbit/s of USB 2.0.
What physical connection and power does this cable need to work at full length?
It uses a male-to-female USB 3.0 plug and requires the included 5 V/2 A power adapter when the attached device draws more than 900 mA.
How do I install this active extension cable and what step is often missed?
Connect the male end to the host, the female end to the peripheral, then plug in the 5 V/2 A power adapter; the step often missed is powering the adapter when the device exceeds 900 mA.
