65 ft USB 2.0 active extension for distant

This GearMo cable extends a USB Type-A connection up to 65 feet using an active ASIC chip that buffers signals to prevent data loss. It draws power from a secondary USB plug to deliver up to 300 mA at the far end. An included AC adapter raises available power to 500 mA for more demanding devices. The cable complies with USB 2.0 electrical and timing specifications for hub operation.

Overcoming passive cable length limits

Passive USB cables cannot reliably carry signals beyond the standard five-metre limit without degradation. This active extender replaces a passive cable when the host and device must sit farther apart, such as ceiling-mounted projectors, hallway kiosks or workshop printers. The built-in signal regeneration makes the jump worthwhile whenever distance would otherwise cause dropped packets or device non-recognition.

Check host port power and device current draw

Verify that the host USB port can supply the extra current needed for the extender’s electronics and the attached device. The cable’s secondary USB plug must connect to an available port or the bundled AC adapter to reach the rated 500 mA output. Devices requiring more than 500 mA will not operate reliably on this extender. Ensure the connector gender matches your existing Type-A male cable and Type-A female port.

Questions about this item

How long is the cable and will it reach my device 65 ft away?

The active cable is exactly 65 ft long and uses a built-in ASIC chip to boost the signal so data reaches the full distance without loss.

Does the cable need external power and how do I connect the included AC adapter?

Plug the AC adapter into the DC power connector on the cable; the power LED will light up to show the active circuitry is powered and boosting the signal.

How much power can the cable deliver to a device at the far end?

It supplies 230 mA from the secondary USB plug alone or up to 500 mA when the AC adapter is also connected, meeting hub timing specs.
