SMUGDESK USB 3.0 Active Extension Cable 65 Feet with 5V Power Cable

SKU CH-W7T3-5R0M2

A 65-foot active USB 3.0 extension cable with built-in signal booster chips and a 5V power cable maintains data rates up to 5 Gbps over long distances

Cable Length 65 Feet

  • Active signal booster prevents data loss over 65 feet
  • SuperSpeed 5 Gbps transfer moves large files quickly
  • Gold-plated connectors resist corrosion for lasting conductivity
  • Triple-layer shielding blocks EMI and RFI interference
  • Backward compatible with USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 devices

65-foot active USB 3.0 extender

This 65-foot active USB 3.0 extension cable bridges long runs between a host computer and peripherals such as printers, cameras, VR headsets or game consoles. Built-in signal-booster chips prevent attenuation so the link remains reliable at distances where passive cables would fail. The male Type-A to female Type-A layout lets you plug any standard USB 3.0 device directly into the far end without extra adapters. It suits installers and home users who need dependable reach across rooms or through conduit.

Triple-shielded construction with gold contacts

Premium triple-layer shielding combines aluminium foil and braid over tin-plated copper conductors to reject EMI and RFI in electrically noisy environments. Gold-plated connectors resist oxidation and maintain low contact resistance through repeated mating cycles. An integrated 5 V power cable supplies the active electronics, ensuring the booster chips operate cleanly without drawing excessive current from the host port. The rugged jacket withstands routing along baseboards, through cable trays or behind equipment racks.

Backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.x

The cable negotiates SuperSpeed at up to 5 Gbps with USB 3.0 devices and falls back automatically to 480 Mbps or lower rates for USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 gear. This broad compatibility means a single run can serve mixed-generation equipment — from high-speed external drives to legacy keyboards — without swapping cables. No driver installation is required on Windows, macOS or Linux, so deployment is immediate for IT roll-outs or home office upgrades.

Questions about this item

What transfer rate does the USB 3.0 active extension cable support?

The cable supports SuperSpeed USB 3.0 data transfer up to 5 Gbps, which is 10x faster than USB 2.0 at 480 Mbps.

What physical connectors does the 65-foot cable use and what is the extra cable for?

It has a USB Type-A male connector on one end and a Type-A female port on the other, plus an attached 5 V power cable to supply the built-in signal booster chips.

How do you install the active extension cable and what step is often missed?

Connect the male Type-A plug to the host, the device to the female port, and plug the 5 V power cable into a USB power source; the booster chips will not work without that external power.
