65.62 ft USB 2.0 active extension

This 65.62 ft active cable extends the connection between USB 2.0 devices well beyond the standard length limit. It terminates in a USB Type-A male connector on one end and a USB Type-B male connector on the other. The black cable suits setups where the host and peripheral are far apart.

Signal integrity over long runs

The active electronics inside the cable regenerate the USB 2.0 signal so data remains reliable across the full 20 metre span. It supports the standard USB 2.0 transfer rate without the degradation seen on passive cables at this distance. The bus-powered design draws operating current from the host port.

Verify port types and power budget

Confirm your host provides a Type-A port and your device accepts a Type-B plug before ordering. Check that the host port can supply enough current for the cable's internal repeater alongside the connected peripheral. Ensure the 65.62 ft route avoids sharp bends or tight cable trays that could stress the jacket.

Questions about this item

Does the 65.62 ft active cable need its own power supply when running all day?

The USB 2.0 active cable draws power from the host USB A port, so no separate power supply is required for continuous operation.

What port must my computer already have to use the USB A male connector on this 20 m cable?

Your computer needs a standard USB Type A port to accept the USB A male plug on the first end of the cable.

Will the USB 2.0 active cable work with a legacy USB 1.1 printer I still use?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with USB 1.1 devices, so your older printer will function at USB 1.1 speeds over the 65 ft link.
