16-Foot Active USB 3.0 Extension

The Jansicotek U310 extends a USB Type A connection by 16 feet while maintaining SuperSpeed 5 Gbps throughput. Built-in signal booster chips prevent attenuation over the longer run, making it suitable for peripherals positioned far from the host computer or tablet.

Signal Booster and 5 V Power Adapter

Two integrated amplification chips regenerate the data signal so that error-free transfer is preserved at full cable length. An included 5 V USB power adapter supplies supplementary current, ensuring stable operation for bus-powered devices such as external hard drives or VR headsets that might otherwise exceed port limits.

5 Gbps Headroom for Storage and VR

The cable comfortably handles large file backups, high-definition video streams and VR sensor data at the full 5 Gbps rate. It remains backward compatible with USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 devices, though those older peripherals will operate at their native 480 Mbps or lower speeds rather than the SuperSpeed ceiling.

Questions about this item

Will the built-in signal booster chips need replacement after long-term use?

The active cable uses two integrated booster chips that are permanently sealed inside the connectors; no user-serviceable parts are present, so the chips are not replaced separately.

What limits the 5 Gbps transfer rate during continuous heavy transfers?

Sustained throughput is capped by the USB 3.0 specification at 5 Gbps and by the 16-foot active extension length, which relies on the booster chips to maintain signal integrity.

Does the included 5 V power adapter generate noticeable heat when the cable runs all day?

The external 5 V adapter supplies stable current to the booster chips; it operates at low power and remains cool to the touch during extended use.
