Model: U026-016

16-ft. USB2.0 A/A Active Extension Cable
(USB-A M/F)

  • Premium double-shielded cables with tinned copper braid and aluminum mylar foil feature twisted 28/20 AWG data lines
  • Gold plated contacts provide superior conductivity for low and high speed devices (1.5 to 480 Mbps.)
  • Active extension cable regenerates USB signal for extra-long distances: daisy-chain up to 80-ft. in most applications

Tripp Lite's 16-ft. 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 16ft. 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 80ft by daisy chaining up to 5 of these active cables. The cable must be plugged directly into a USB port (either on the PC or a hub). Use a standard 6' 10' or 15' USB cable to reach the desired distance. Tripp Lite warrants this product to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for life.

No. As an alternative, Tripp Lite recommends the use of four U026-016 Cables.
