Extension for USB-C devices

This 4.9 ft USB 3.1 Type C male-to-female cable extends the reach of a host port while carrying data, video, audio and power. It suits users who need a longer tether for peripherals such as drives, docks or headsets without moving the computer itself. The black jacket blends with most setups.

Sustained throughput and signal quality

Rated for USB 3.1 Gen2, the link supports 10 Gbps transfers and 4K video streaming over the full length. The triple-layer shielding and TPE jacket are built to maintain signal integrity during extended sessions rather than only brief bursts. Builders who need more bandwidth than 10 Gbps should look elsewhere.

Plug-in simplicity and common pitfalls

The connectors seat with a firm click and the flexible cable routes easily behind desks or monitors. Installation is straightforward: plug the male end into the host and the device into the female end. Note that this extender cannot work with Apple Multi-Media Adapter or Dell Thunderbolt Docking Station due to early USB-C implementation differences.

Questions about this item

Does the cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power when used continuously for data and charging?

The USB 3.1 Gen2 cable supports 10Gbps data and 4K video while passing power through its male-to-female connectors, and normal operation does not produce noticeable heat during all-day use.

What port must my device already have for this 4.9 ft extender to work?

Your device needs a USB Type C female port so the cable's USB 3.1 Type C male plug can connect and extend it to another USB Type C female receptacle.

Will this extension work with my older USB 3.0 or 2.0 Type C peripherals?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with USB 3.0 and 2.0 Type C devices, though data speeds will fall to the older standard's limit while power and video pass through normally.
