The Lindy USB 3.2 Gen 1 C/A Active Extension Cable Pro is a high performance active cable that allows access to USB peripherals over long distances. With support for data transfer speeds of up to 5Gbps this extension cable is perfect for transferring large data volumes quickly and reliably.
This 5m USB 3.2 C/A Active Extension Cable can be used standalone or as part of the Lindy USB 3.0 Active Extension System Pro. This system is a modular solution that can combine multiple USB Active Extension Pro cables and a USB 3.0 Active Extension Pro hub to distribute USB signals to up to 4 devices at about 40m (depending on the cable configurations used).
Please note that only the USB 3.2 C/A Active Extension Pro 5m (Nr. 43380) or the 8m version (Nr. 43381) can be connected directly to your computer. Once the first cable has been connected, you can then cascade further cables to achieve a maximum distance of 40m. The final part of the extension can be any segment of the Extension Pro System (Nr. 43157, 43158, 43229, 43361). If you need to extend multiple devices or if you connect a USB device with high power requirement, then you should use the 10m Hub Pro unit (Nr. 43159) with it's power supply as the final part of the extension.
If a USB Type C device is to be connected, a USB 3.0 Active Extension Type A to C (no. 43375 or 43376) can also be used as the last segment.
This cable features industry-proven active technology and locking connectors to ensure full signal integrity in the most demanding environments.
