Product Description
Tripp Lite's 16-ft. USB Certified 2.0 active 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 cable must be plugged directly into a USB port (either on the PC or a hub). Use a standard 6' 10' or 15' USB cable to reach the desired distance.

5 out of 5 stars Works GREAT!   November 3, 2008
John Hillestad (Ft Lauderdale, FL USA)

I bought 2 of these and made a 32 foot connection to my device and it worked GREAT !

I needed a way to bring my computers usb 2.0 port closer to a device that cannot be moved and this baby did the job! Well worth it !



5 out of 5 stars Excellent as described   October 18, 2008
Manu French
Tried it with the PC, the Wii and the PS3. It works flawlessly with all devices I have connected to it. You can also put a USB hub at the end of the cable and it works well.


5 out of 5 stars Quality product   October 8, 2008
Jason A. Link (California)
You are supposed to plug this strait into the computer but this product worked even in the middle of a 50 foot chain of all kinds of USB cables(none active other than this one). I had to quickly rig something together and this cable saved me, I will be ordering more of them(mostly so I don't have to string together some many cables next time)!

i am using this to extend the range of my wireless key/mouse set, and it does exactly what i need it to. great product and affordable price.



5 out of 5 stars The Perfect USB 2.0 Extension Cable   August 30, 2008
Dylan Powers (Washington)
I haven't had much time to mess with it yet but it seems to work great right out of the packaging. I'd highly recommend this product. I got it mainly so I could use it with my PS3 and it seems to work great! It had a nice snug fit when I plugged my controller USB cable into it, so you don't have to worry about the two USB cables coming apart, and my controller immediately started charging. I was also able to navigate the XMB on my PS3 just fine. I still have to test it with my Logitech racing wheel, which is the main reason I got it. I've uploaded some more relevent product pictures for everyone because the first one is way off.
