50-foot active USB 3.0 extension
This active USB 3.0 extension cable reaches 50 feet with a built-in signal booster to prevent attenuation. A 5 V 2 A power adapter is included for stable long-distance operation. Data transfer runs at up to 5 Gbps, ten times the 480 Mbps rate of USB 2.0. Gold-plated Type-A connectors and triple shielding resist corrosion and EMI.
For VR setups and distant peripherals
Suits users who need to place Oculus Quest 2, Rift sensors, Steam VR gear, printers, cameras or hard drives far from the host computer. The cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 devices. Buyers who need throughput above 5 Gbps should look elsewhere.
5 Gbps SuperSpeed rating
The decisive specification is the 5 Gbps USB 3.0 SuperSpeed limit. If the connected device or application requires 10 Gbps or higher bandwidth, this cable will not meet that need.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 50 ft active USB 3.0 extension cable and where do I plug the included 5V/2A power adapter?
Connect the Type A male end to your computer and the Type A female end to your device. If the attached peripheral draws more than 900mA, plug the supplied 5V/2A power adapter into the booster unit on the cable to maintain a stable 5 Gbps link.
What maintenance or replacement will the SMUGDESK 50 ft USB 3.0 active extension cable need over time?
The gold-plated Type A connectors resist oxidation, and the triple-shielded jacket with tinned copper conductors minimises wear. No scheduled maintenance is required; replace the cable only if physical damage or persistent data errors appear.
What is the first limit I will hit when running the 50 ft USB 3.0 extender at full speed for long periods?
The built-in signal booster chips eliminate attenuation up to the full 5 Gbps SuperSpeed rate, so the practical ceiling is the USB 3.0 specification itself rather than cable length.
