SMUGDESK USB 3.0 Active Extension Cable 100 FT with Signal Booster and Power Adapter

SKU CH-RFG3-F3JJ2

A 100 ft active USB 3.0 extension cable with built-in signal booster and included 5V/2A power adapter for reliable long-distance data transfer up to 5 Gbps

Cable Length 100 Feet

  • Active signal booster maintains data integrity over 100 ft distance
  • 5 Gbps transfer rate moves large files quickly
  • Included 5V/2A power adapter supports devices drawing over 900 mA
  • Gold-plated connectors resist corrosion for lasting conductivity
  • Backward compatible with 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 devices

100-Foot USB 3.0 Active Extension Cable

This active USB 3.0 extension cable reaches 100 feet using built-in signal booster chips to prevent attenuation. A 5V/2A power adapter is included to supply stable current for long-distance transfers. The cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0, USB 1.1 and USB 1.0 devices. Triple-layer shielding with tinned copper conductors and foil braid minimises EMI/RFI interference.

Suited for distant peripherals.

The cable suits VR headsets, printers, cameras, hard drives, hubs and other USB-A peripherals that must sit far from the host computer. Gold-plated Type-A male-to-female connectors resist corrosion. Buyers whose peripherals draw more than 900mA must connect the supplied power adapter to maintain reliable operation. It is not for setups needing USB-C connectors or lengths beyond 100 feet.

5 Gbps SuperSpeed data rate

The single specification that decides fit is the USB 3.0 SuperSpeed transfer rate up to 5 Gbps. This is ten times faster than the 480 Mbps limit of USB 2.0. If the application requires this bandwidth over a 100-foot run, the active booster and included power adapter make it viable; if the device only needs USB 2.0 speeds, a simpler passive cable may suffice.

Questions about this item

Will the 100 ft length still hit the 5 Gbps USB 3.0 speed, or does the signal drop off?

The built-in signal booster chips maintain the full 5 Gbps transfer rate across the entire 100 ft run, so you get USB 3.0 Super Speed without attenuation.

Does the cable run hot or draw extra power when it’s powering a headset all day?

The included 5V/2A power adapter supplies stable current and back-pressure protection; connect it whenever the attached device draws more than 900 mA to keep the link cool and reliable.

My PC only has USB 2.0 ports — will this active extender still work?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 ports, though the transfer rate will be limited to the host port’s maximum of 480 Mbps.
