Jansicotek U310 16 ft USB 3.0 Active Extension

The Jansicotek U310 is a 16-foot active USB 3.0 extension cable with a Type A male to Type A female connector. It uses built-in signal booster chips to maintain SuperSpeed performance over distances where standard passive cables fail. This cable suits users who need to place printers, webcams, VR headsets, or hard drives far from the host computer.

Upgrade from passive USB 3.0 or 2.0 extension cables

Passive USB 3.0 cables typically lose signal integrity beyond short lengths, forcing a drop to USB 2.0 speeds or unreliable connections. The U310’s active repeater chips preserve the full 5 Gbps rate at 16 feet, making the jump worthwhile when devices must sit across a room, in a sim rig, or on a distant desk. It is not for buyers who need cable runs longer than the 100-foot maximum this product family supports.

5 Gbps bandwidth for high-speed peripherals

The cable delivers up to 5 Gbps throughput, handling 4K webcam streams, fast external SSDs, and VR tracking data without compression artefacts. Backward compatibility with USB 2.0 ensures keyboards, mice, and older hubs still function, though at 480 Mbps. Triple shielding and 22 AWG conductors resist EMI in electrically noisy environments. It runs out of reach for installations requiring more than 100 feet or for USB-C devices without a separate adapter.

Questions about this item

Does the 16 ft cable need an extra power adapter to work?

The active extension includes built-in signal booster chips and a 5 V USB power adapter to maintain 5 Gbps performance at this length.

How do I install it so the booster chips actually engage?

Plug the male Type-A end into the host, connect the female Type-A end to the device, then attach the 5 V USB power adapter to the cable's power input before use.

Will the gold-plated connectors or 22 AWG conductors need replacement over time?

The gold-plated Type-A connectors and 22 AWG tinned copper conductors are rated for the cable's full service life and do not require scheduled replacement.
