Overview
Tripp Lite's U026-20M is a 20-meter (65 ft.) USB 2.0 active extension cable used to increase the length of a USB device cable beyond the 16.ft cable limitation without signal loss and potential performance problems. The U026-20M is a bus-powered extension cable with a built-in signal booster for regenerating the signal to achieve superior signal quality and data transmission. The overall cable length can be extended up to 131ft by daisy chaining up to 2 of active cables. Standard 6' 10' or 15' USB A-B cable to reach the desired distance. Meets or exceeds all USB 2.0 specifications and also supports faster data transfer for legacy USB 1.1 devices. Power capacity is up to 90mA of power to the connected device. (If more than 90mA is required, it will either (i) need to have its own power supply, or (ii) be plugged into a powered USB 2.0 hub (Tripp Lite U222-004-R).

Frequently Asked Questions
Most mobile devices use USB cables to recharge their batteries. A USB 2.0 cable can provide up to 2.5 watts of power, sufficient to charge a phone or tablet. The new USB Power Delivery specification can provide up to 100 watts and it’s bi-directional, so a device can send or receive power. So, assuming a laptop requires a 60 watts charge, it could mean the end of bulky power adapters and proprietary charging cables. This available wattage will depend on the hardware and on the capabilities of the cable selected.
