10-metre USB 2.0 active extension

This cable extends the link between a host computer and a USB 2.0 peripheral by ten metres. An integrated repeater preserves signal integrity over the full length. The assembly terminates in a Type A male plug on one side and a Type A female receptacle on the other. A universal power adapter with a Type A mains plug is included for the active circuitry.

Suitable for long-run peripheral connections

The cable suits installations where a printer, scanner, camera or similar USB 2.0 device must sit farther from the host than a passive cable allows. Daisy-chaining up to four units extends the reach to forty metres. Builders who need USB 3.x throughput or bus-powered operation without an external adapter should consider a different solution.

Handles standard USB 2.0 bandwidth over distance

The active design maintains the full USB 2.0 data rate across the ten-metre span and across a forty-metre chain. Each segment draws its repeater power from the supplied mains adapter rather than the host port. The cable does not carry enough bus power for high-current devices that rely solely on the USB socket.

Questions about this item

Do I need a spare wall outlet for the included power adapter to run this 10 m active cable?

Yes, the bundle includes a universal power adapter with a Type A plug that must be connected to mains power for the active repeater to function over the full 10 m length.

Can I keep using my existing USB 2.0 peripherals when daisy-chaining up to four of these cables for a 40 m run?

Yes, the cable is fully backward-compatible with USB 2.0 devices and the specification allows daisy-chaining up to four cables for a total reach of 40 m without changing peripherals.

How can I verify the 10 m active extension is operating correctly after plugging in the power adapter and connecting my device?

The connected USB device should be recognised by the host immediately and transfer data reliably; if the device appears and works at normal USB 2.0 speeds, the active repeater is functioning as intended.
