USB 2.0 Active Extension Cable

This LUOM US-121 cable extends a USB 2.0 Type-A connection by fifteen feet using a built-in signal booster chipset. It connects a male plug to a female port so keyboards, headsets, cameras or VR headsets can sit farther from the host computer. The cable is double-shielded with a solid copper conductor and requires no driver installation on Windows, macOS, Linux or Chrome OS. It is intended for data and peripheral use only, not for charging.

Check Port Type and Power Needs

Verify that the device you want to extend uses a standard USB Type-A connector and draws power within the USB 2.0 specification, because the repeater cannot supply extra current for charging. Ensure the host port can deliver enough bus power for both the cable electronics and the peripheral at the full fifteen-foot distance. The cable is not designed to daisy-chain with other active extenders, so plan a single-run layout.

Sustained Load Behaviour

The integrated FE 1.1 low-power booster maintains the 480 Mbps high-speed rate during long sessions without the cable becoming hot. Triple-layer foil, braid and ground shielding suppresses EMI and RFI that can accumulate over extended runs. Thick tin-plated 2824 AWG copper cores keep transfer impedance low, preventing stutter on devices such as VR sensors or webcams that stream continuously. Signal quality remains stable over hours of operation.

Questions about this item

Does the 15 ft cable include any extra parts or need a separate power adapter?

The LUOM US-121 is a single 15 ft USB 2.0 active extension cable with a male Type A plug on one end and a female Type A port on the other. No extra parts or external power adapter are required; the built-in signal booster draws power from the host port.

Should I choose the 15 ft version or a shorter one for my Oculus Rift?

The listed model US-121 provides a 15 ft reach. If your headset or sensor sits farther than a standard passive cable allows, this length works; pick a shorter cable only when the extra distance is not needed.

What does the 480 Mbps rating mean when the cable is plugged into a PC?

The cable supports the USB 2.0 high-speed rate of 480 Mbps. The FE 1.1 s booster chipset maintains that throughput across the full 15 ft without signal degradation, so devices such as cameras or headsets run at their normal USB 2.0 speed.
