The USB 2.0 specification supports a maximum cable length of 5 metres for a single cable segment. Beyond 5 metres, signal integrity degrades due to resistance and capacitance in the cable affecting the USB data timing. At 10 metres, this extension cable includes active signal amplification (boosting) to maintain the USB 2.0 signal quality across the full 10-metre length without requiring a powered USB hub in the middle of the run.
USB 2.0 at High Speed (480 Mbps) is sufficient for keyboards, mice, webcams, USB CCTV cameras, USB audio interfaces, and similar peripherals that do not require the bandwidth of USB 3.0.
Practical installation applications include: extending a USB webcam or CCTV camera away from the recording device, running a keyboard or mouse to a remote position in a control room or server room, and extending USB peripherals in point-of-sale or kiosk installations where the host PC is remote from the user interface.
For installers and technicians extending USB 2.0 peripheral connections to 10 metres across London and the UK, this cable provides the extension without requiring additional hardware at the mid-point.
