Locate a printer or other USB peripheral 25-ft. from your computer.

  • 25-ft. (7.62 m) USB A-B Active Cable
  • Overcomes the 5-meter USB barrier
  • Built-in repeater maintains high-speed USB 2.0 signal quality
  • 3-year limited warranty

Overview

This High-Speed USB 2.0 Active A/B cable overcomes the five-meter USB distance limitation with an active repeater in the middle of the cable. USB printers and other devices can be located up to 25 feet (7.6 meters) away from the computer in a single non-daisy-chainable run with no need for extension cables. Full 480 Mbps speed is maintained along the entire length of the cable. Backward compatible to USB 1.1. Plug-and-play, Windows and macOS compatible. The U042-025 provides up to 150mA of power to the connected device. If your device requires more than 150mA of power, it will either need to have its own power supply (not included) or to be plugged into a powered USB 2.0 hub (such as U222-007-R) that is connected to the U042-025.
