10-metre USB 2.0 active extension

This 10-metre USB 2.0 active extension cable uses a built-in repeater to maintain full 480Mbps Hi-Speed signal quality over 33 feet. It connects a USB-A male plug to a USB-A female port and is backward compatible with USB 1.1 at 12Mbps. The grey cable is RoHS compliant and works plug-and-play with major operating systems. It supplies up to 150mA of power to the attached device.

Suitable for distant peripherals.

The cable suits users who need to place a keyboard, mouse, printer or webcam far from the host computer without signal loss. It also supports daisy-chaining up to four cables for a 40-metre total run. Buyers whose devices draw more than 150mA must provide a separate power supply or use a powered hub, as the cable cannot deliver higher current. It is not intended for internal component connections.

Steady 480Mbps over the full length

The active repeater preserves electrical and timing specifications across the entire 10-metre span, so sustained transfers hold at the rated 480Mbps rather than degrading with distance. Daisy-chained extensions maintain this behaviour up to the 40-metre limit. Power delivery stays capped at 150mA continuously, so attached devices must operate within that budget during prolonged use.

Questions about this item

What type of USB port must my computer have for the U026-10M to work?

The cable plugs into a standard USB Type-A port, so your computer needs an available USB-A socket to use this 10 metre extension.

Will the 480 Mbps speed still be reached if I connect this cable to a USB 1.1 device?

The cable is backward compatible with USB 1.1, but the transfer rate will be limited to the device's 12 Mbps maximum rather than the cable's 480 Mbps capability.

How can I verify the active repeater is maintaining signal quality after installation?

Confirm the connected device is recognised by the operating system and runs at full USB 2.0 speed without dropouts; the built-in repeater preserves electrical and timing specifications across the 33 foot length.
