  • Extends USB connections up to 16 ft with built-in signal booster
  • Active repeater chip prevents signal loss over long cable runs

  • Tinned copper conductors plus foil braided shielding reduce interference
  • Backward compatible with USB 3.0 and 2.0 peripherals

16-Foot Active USB 3.0 Extension

This active USB 3.0 extension cable extends the connection between a computer or Windows tablet and USB Type-A peripherals up to 16 feet. Built-in signal amplification chips prevent signal attenuation for uninterrupted data transmission. The cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices and includes a 5V/2A power adapter for stable current when connected devices draw more than 900mA.

Desktop and VR Setups

The male-to-female Type-A design plugs directly into a host port and accepts standard USB peripherals such as webcams, printers, external hard drives, VR headsets and game consoles. Foil-braided shielding and tinned copper conductors maintain signal integrity over the full length. The supplied power adapter connects to the cable to provide full back-pressure protection during long-distance transfers, freeing the host port from high-current demands.

Long-Run Peripheral Users

This cable suits users who need to place USB 3.0 or 2.0 devices farther from the host than a passive cable allows, including VR sensors, cameras and external storage. It is not intended for runs beyond 100 feet or for installations that cannot accommodate the external power adapter. Buyers needing internal header connections or alternative connector types should consider other solutions.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum cable length this active extender can reach without signal loss?

The active extender supports lengths from 16 ft up to 100 ft while maintaining signal integrity.

Does the included power adapter supply enough current for high-draw devices during all-day use?

The 5V/2A adapter provides stable power when connected device current exceeds 900mA, preventing voltage drop over long runs.

Which USB standard must my computer port support for this cable to function at full speed?

The cable requires a USB 3.0 Type-A port for 5 Gbps operation but remains backward compatible with USB 2.0 ports.
