49-foot USB 2.0 active cable for Type-B peripherals

This 48.99-foot active cable connects a USB Type-A host to any USB Type-B device such as printers, scanners or digital cameras. It draws power from the bus, so no external adapter is required. The integrated electronics boost the signal to maintain reliable communication over the full 49-foot run.

USB 2.0 signalling limit of 15 metres

USB 2.0 specifies a maximum cable length of 15 metres for high-speed operation, and this cable reaches that boundary. The active circuitry compensates for attenuation that would otherwise cause data errors or device enumeration failures at this distance. Passive cables cannot meet the timing requirements beyond the standard five-metre limit.

Check for Type-B port and legacy OS support

Verify that the peripheral presents a USB Type-B female socket before ordering. The manufacturer lists compatibility with Windows 98, 2000, XP, Vista and 7; newer operating systems are not referenced in the supplied data. Ensure the host port can supply sufficient bus power for the active electronics.

Questions about this item

What does the USB 2.0 label mean for real-world throughput when the cable is plugged in?

The cable carries the standard USB 2.0 signalling rate, so connected printers, scanners or cameras will operate at the normal High-Speed bandwidth the host controller provides.

How does the active electronics affect the practical distance limit of the USB connection?

Built-in signal-boosting circuitry lets the link reach 15 metres (49 ft) without the signal degradation that stops a passive copper cable at around five metres.
