The STARTECH USB2HAB65AC is a 65-foot (20-meter) active USB 2.0 A to B cable designed to extend the operational distance between USB 2.0 devices beyond the typical 5-meter passive cable limit. It incorporates bus-powered active circuitry to maintain signal integrity over longer runs. This cable is suitable for IT environments where peripherals such as printers, keyboards, mice, or modems need to be positioned up to 65 feet away from a host PC, laptop, or server. It addresses scenarios where standard cable lengths are insufficient, providing flexibility in device placement without requiring additional power adapters for the cable itself. Constructed with durable materials, this cable is intended for reliable, extended-distance USB 2.0 connectivity in business applications.
This is a USB 2.0 cable, which supports data transfer speeds up to 480 Mbps. The active circuitry helps maintain this speed over the extended length.
This cable is designed to connect USB 2.0 devices with a Type B port (e.g., printers, modems) to a host device with a Type A port (e.g., PCs, laptops, servers). It also supports keyboards and mice.
No, the cable incorporates bus-powered active circuitry, meaning it draws power directly from the USB port it is connected to and does not require a separate external power adapter.
The cable has a length of 65.62 feet (approximately 20 meters), allowing for extended reach between USB 2.0 devices.
