16-foot USB 3.0 active extension cable

The LUOM U310 is a 16-foot active USB 3.0 extension cable with a Type-A male connector on one end and a Type-A female port on the other. A built-in signal booster chip maintains SuperSpeed performance over the full length. It supports data rates up to 5 Gbps and remains backwards compatible with USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 devices.

Fits into a build by bridging long gaps

The active circuitry removes the usual distance limit for passive cables, letting you place printers, cameras, VR headsets or external drives far from the host PC. Gold-plated connectors and triple-layer shielding protect signal integrity in electrically noisy environments. A bundled DC 5 V 2 A power adapter feeds the booster when high-draw peripherals such as hard drives are attached, so the host port is not overloaded.

Suits users who need reliable long-range USB 3.0

Ideal for home offices, sim rigs or surveillance setups where the device must sit 16 feet from the computer. The rugged braided jacket survives repeated bending and the cable requires no driver installation. Buyers who need runs longer than 16 feet or who want a cable without an external power brick should consider other options.

Questions about this item

Will the 5 Gbps speed hold over the full 16 foot length without signal loss?

The built-in signal booster chip is designed to prevent attenuation so the SuperSpeed 5 Gbps rate is maintained across the 16 foot run.

Does the cable run warm or draw extra power when used continuously all day?

An included DC 5 V 2 A power adapter supplies the active circuitry, keeping the extension stable during extended use without relying solely on the host port.

What must my device already have to plug straight into this extender?

Your peripheral needs a standard USB 3.0 Type A male connector; the cable provides a Type A female port and a Type A male plug for the host.
