UGREEN US121 20M Active USB 2.0 Extension Cable in Kenya

Overview

The UGREEN US121 20M USB 2.0 Active Extension Cable is the ultimate long-range connectivity solution for users in Kenya who need reliable, high-quality USB data transmission across large spaces. Designed with an integrated signal amplification chipset, this 20-meter cable ensures stable 480 Mbps transfer speeds without the drop-offs or delays that affect standard passive cables.

It’s perfect for connecting devices like printers, webcams, conference microphones, and surveillance systems that require stable communication over long distances — whether at home, in offices, classrooms, or commercial setups.

Active Signal Amplification for Long-Distance Stability

At an impressive 20 meters, the UGREEN US121 goes far beyond standard cable limits. Its built-in chipset, located near the USB female end, actively regenerates the signal to preserve data integrity. This ensures consistent transmission quality and prevents lag, making it ideal for devices that rely on uninterrupted communication such as security cameras or interactive displays.

Reliable USB 2.0 Data Performance

Compliant with USB 2.0 specifications, the cable supports data transfer speeds up to 480 Mbps. It’s ideal for medium-bandwidth devices like keyboards, mice, flash drives, and cameras. The cable is backward compatible with USB 1.1, maintaining versatility across new and older peripherals.

External Power Support for High-Draw Devices

The UGREEN US121 20M includes a DC 5V power port to connect an external power adapter when using energy-intensive peripherals such as external hard drives or multi-port USB hubs. This feature ensures that your connected devices receive consistent voltage even at maximum range, avoiding power loss and unstable operation.

Premium Construction for Durability and Signal Protection

UGREEN’s attention to quality is evident in the gold-plated connectors, which resist corrosion and improve conductivity. The reinforced PVC jacket protects against physical wear and tear, while the multi-layer shielding minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) to guarantee smooth, noise-free data transfer. Molded strain relief at both ends reduces stress from repeated plugging and unplugging, ensuring long-lasting reliability.

Plug-and-Play Compatibility Across Platforms

This extension cable is universally compatible and requires no drivers or software. It supports all major operating systems including Windows (XP through 11), macOS, and Linux. Whether you’re connecting to a computer, smart TV, or gaming console, the setup is instant and hassle-free.

Comparison: UGREEN US121 20M vs UGREEN US121 15M

• Length: The 20M version offers a longer range, perfect for auditoriums or large offices, while the 15M model suits standard rooms.

• Power Delivery: Both feature an optional DC 5V power port, but the 20M model benefits more from external power for optimal voltage stability.

• Use Case: The 20M version is ideal for professional and industrial-grade setups, while the 15M is geared towards medium-scale environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this cable maintain a stable connection over 20 meters?
Yes. The integrated active repeater chipset ensures stable data transmission even at the full 20-meter length.

Does it support charging?
Yes, but charging efficiency reduces over distance. For reliable power delivery, use the 5V external power input for high-draw devices.

Can I connect two of these cables together?
Daisy-chaining is possible but not recommended, as it may cause data loss. Instead, use a single 20M active cable for the best performance.

Is it compatible with USB 3.0 devices?
Yes, but data transfer speed will be limited to USB 2.0’s 480 Mbps maximum.
