20-metre active USB 3.0 extension

This active extension cable adds 20 metres of reach between a host and a USB 3.0 peripheral. A built-in extension chipset on one end regenerates the signal so the full 5 Gbit/s data rate is maintained over the full length. It is suited to installations where the device must sit far from the computer.

Shielded construction with nickel-plated connectors

The cable uses a mixed 26, 24 and 22 AWG conductor set and full shielding to resist interference in typical environments. Nickel-plated USB-A male and female connectors provide durable mating cycles. The male plug inserts into the host or hub; the female port accepts the device cable, giving a straightforward in-line connection.

Passive power draw with LED signal indicator

The active circuitry draws its operating power from the host USB port so no external adapter is required. An integrated LED shows link status at a glance. Backwards compatibility with USB 2.0 allows the same cable to serve older peripherals at their native speeds.

Questions about this item

What is the practical data-rate ceiling of the USB 3.0 interface on this 20 m active extension cable?

The USB 3.0 connection is rated at 5 Gbit/s, so real-world throughput will not exceed that figure.

What physical clearance and connector types are needed to fit the 65.62 ft cable with its male-to-female USB-A ends?

It requires a standard USB-A male port on the host side and a USB-A female port on the device side; the cable itself is 20 metres long.

How is the cable installed, and which orientation step do users often reverse?

Plug the USB-A male end into the host and the USB-A female end toward the peripheral; the active chipset resides on the male side, so reversing the ends will prevent the link from working.
