USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Active Extension Cable (A M/F)

16-ft.

MODEL NUMBER: U026-016

Description

Tripp Lite's 16-ft. USB 2.0 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 U026-016 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 or need to be plugged into a

powered USB 2.0 hub (such as U222-004-R) that is connected to the U026-016. Use a standard 6' 10' or 15'

USB cable to reach the desired distance.

Features

Extend a USB 2.0 signal passed the 16 ft. (5 m.) distance limitation

Works together with standard USB 2.0 cables

Bus powered signal booster

Daisychain up to 5 cables to extend the signal up to 80 ft. passed the 16 ft. (5 m.) distance limitation

The U026-016 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; or, to be plugged into a powered USB 2.0

hub (such as U222-004-R) that is connected to the U026-016.

USB

Highlights

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

System Requirements

A USB 2.0 port and USB 2.0

device are required to achieve

USB 2.0 speeds. A USB 1.1 port

and/or device can be used, but

you will not be able to achieve

USB 2.0 speeds.

The U026-016 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; or, to be

plugged into a powered USB 2.0

hub (such as U222-004-R) that is

connected to the U026-016.
