• Designed specifically for connecting host devices (like PCs and laptops) to peripherals such as printers, scanners, and multifunction devices.

Length & Signal Boosting

• Length: 15 meters (approx. 49.2 feet)

• To maintain signal integrity over this long distance, it features a built-in signal amplification chipset (active repeater). This prevents signal degradation, which is common in passive USB cables over 5 meters.

• Backward compatible with USB 1.1 devices but at lower speeds.

Build Quality

• Gold-plated connectors ensure corrosion resistance and better connectivity.

• Triple shielding (aluminum foil, braided shield, and inner insulation) protects against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI).

• Durable PVC jacket enhances flexibility and protects the internal wiring.

Power Requirements

• Bus-powered (no external power supply required).

• Draws minimal power from the USB host port to operate the signal booster.

Compatibility

• Works with most standard USB-B devices, including:

  • HP, Canon, Epson, Brother, Samsung printers

  • Flatbed and sheet-fed scanners

  • All-in-one fax/printer units

• Compatible with major operating systems: Windows, macOS, and Linux

Use Case

• Ideal for office or home setups where the printer/scanner is located far from the computer.

• Perfect for setups that need to keep cables out of sight or routed through furniture or walls without compromising signal quality.
