Vszerda Active USB 2.0 Extension Cable 16.4 ft

This active extension cable extends a USB connection up to 16.4 feet using a built-in signal booster. It is suited for users who need to place peripherals such as printers, scanners, security cameras or game consoles further from the host computer than a standard passive cable allows.

Sustained load behaviour

The cable operates at the USB 2.0 specification with a data rate of 480 megabytes_per_second. The integrated NXP chip and inner braided shield maintain signal integrity over the full length, preventing the attenuation that degrades performance on long passive cables during continuous transfers.

Installation and common issues

The USB A male to A female connectors are gold-plated for reliable contact and require no driver installation. The cable only functions when both host and peripheral ports support USB 3.0; connecting to USB 2.0-only ports will result in no link. Users must verify port compatibility before installation.

Questions about this item

How much power does the built-in NXP booster draw during continuous use?

The cable uses an active NXP chip to maintain signal integrity over the 16.4 ft run, drawing only the small amount of bus power allowed by the USB 2.0 specification.

Which port type must the host and device provide for this cable to function?

Both ends require a standard USB Type-A socket; the male plug connects to the host and the female receptacle accepts the peripheral.

Will this active extender work with a USB 2.0 webcam and a USB 3.0 laptop port?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible; plugging it into a USB 3.0 port will operate at USB 2.0 speeds of 480 Mbps.
