The Lindy USB 3.0 Active Cable uses built-in active electronics to extend the cable length of a USB 3.0 device by an additional 10m whilst continuing to support data transfer rates of up to 5Gbps. With USB A male and USB B male connectors this product allows Type B devices such as printers to be connected directly at longer distances and ensures flexible positioning.

The Lindy USB 3.0 Active Extension Cable is compatible with all USB Type A equipped computers. With plug and play functionality, this extension cable can be installed quickly and with minimum fuss. The cable's unique and slim design allows easy installation due to the active electronics that are housed in a small cable mould - an advantage over other active USB leads which use bulky connectors.

It is recommended that this extender is used with low power or self powered USB peripherals and not high power consuming devices, unless they have their own power supply.Information about USB 3.0, 3.1 and 3.2
