Its plug-and-play design supports all major operating systems and allows daisy chaining for up to 40 meters (131 feet) total length, making it ideal for professionals needing extended USB connectivity without compromising performance. ## Description Tripp Lite's 65-feet USB 2.0 active extension cable is a bus powered extension cable that can be used to increase the length of a device cable without the worry of signal loss and potential performance problems. USB limits a cable's length to 16 feet. Any length above 16 feet requires the use of an active cable such as this one. This cable has a signal booster built in. The overall cable length can be extended up to 131 feet by daisy chaining up to 2 of these active cables. Review: Great way to turn a Webcam into a surveillance camera. - I bought this in order to place a Lifecam Cinema HD webcam for temporary outside use in sunny weather, and it works great for this purpose. I was a bit confused by the picture showing two coils; when i unpacked the cable I saw there is an active repeater in the center of the cable, and a second repeater at the end. The repeater in the center is hard-wired. The cable itself is a braided shielded cable with a transparent outer plastic covering - this should help avoid interference problems and allow for some limited exposure to water, as long as you are careful with the connectors at the middle and both ends. When buying one of these cables keep in mind a few things: 1) the cable length limits the rate at which data can reliably be transmitted (which is why you don't see 3.0), and the length also adds a tiny bit of latency, so some bi-directional devices may not work reliably if they cannot live with the extra latency. (certain printer protocols come to mind here) 2) Also, the active repeaters draw a little bit of the USB ports power, so the actual max power available to the USB device plugged into it is lower than a regular USB port. This lower power might also cause problems with higher-draw devices which get their power from the USB cable. It should have no effect on low powered devices (webcams for example) or externally powered devices like most printers. 3) Don't forget about the repeater in the middle if you are pulling your cable through a small hole in a wall - any such hole should be near half of the cable closest to the PC, and you may have to pull your cable backwards towards the PC.

We purchased this to connect out desktop computer in our home to a power chair out side as we could not get the power chair into the home to use a shorter cable. It worked fine and we have used it several times this way. In fact we had to use 2 of these cables hooked together to reach from the computer to the chair and it worked great. **Q: i purchased the 16' but no red light comes on as one post shows? should there be a red light when it is connected???** A: Yes **Q: After hooking it up to a desktop, could I then attach a small usb hub to the end, and use it with two controllers for some convient couch gaming?** A: I imagine that would work. So long as the devices don't require a lot of power or the hub is a powered one you should be fine. **Q: Will this work to extend the charging/power cord for an iPad?** A: Mine would allow me to use my iPad as a remote when plugged in; however it did not charge the iPad. I should have returned it since it didn't do what I wanted. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great way to turn a Webcam into a surveillance camera. *by D***N on September 9, 2016* I bought this in order to place a Lifecam Cinema HD webcam for temporary outside use in sunny weather, and it works great for this purpose.

This length of cable made it happen. No connect issues everything seems to work just fine. I am actually run the 66 ft cable into a standard 20 ft extender and again it work flawlessly ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great solution for long distance USB. *by R***L on February 26, 2021* This works great! I have a home studio. I mic my drum kit to my presonus mixing board. It has usb out. I run that all the way across my basement to my control room, all tucked away up in the rafters. It gets to my computer and has no latency or hiccups or other glitchy things happen so far. It’s been great. I’m super happy with this. ## Frequently Bought Together - Tripp Lite USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Active Extension Repeater Cable (A M/F) 20 Meter (65-ft.)
