LINDY USB 3.0 Active Extension Cable Pro (20m)

The Lindy USB 3.0 Active Extension Pro is a high-performance connection cable that reliably connects USB 3.0 devices to the network over long distances. With a range of 20 meters, this active cable enables access to peripherals in spatially remote areas – for example, in large office environments, conference rooms, or complex installation scenarios. Data transfer rates remain stable and signal quality is guaranteed.

Advantages at a glance

• Range up to 20 meters without loss of performance
• Data transfer rate up to 5 Gbit/s (USB 3.0 SuperSpeed)
• Modular system architecture – expandable up to a total distance of approximately 40 meters
• Active repeater technology for stable signal integrity
• Secure connection with hook mechanism on the sockets
• Easy integration with existing USB device cable (max. 2 meters)

Image quality & technology

The cable fully supports the USB 3.0 standard and transmits data at up to 5 Gbit/s. The construction with twisted-pair technology, aluminum-mylar shielding, and copper braiding minimizes interference and ensures high signal quality even in technically demanding environments. The active repeater module compensates for signal attenuation over the 20-meter distance and ensures reliable data transmission without interruptions.

Installation & flexibility

Connection is made by simply connecting the existing USB cable of the target device to the A-socket of the extension cable. The cable is powered directly (DC 2.5/0.7 mm), the corresponding power supply is included. As part of the modular Lindy USB 3.0 Active Extension System Pro, the cable can be combined with other components – especially the 8-meter or 15-meter starter cable – to bridge distances of up to approximately 40 meters. The 20-meter segment can be used as a middle or end segment.

Connectivity & functions

The cable offers USB Type-A ports and is fully compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 1 as well as USB 3.2 Gen 1 devices, as these support the same 5-Gbit/s bandwidth. The product contains two integrated USB 3.0 hubs, which should be taken into account in larger installations. For applications with multiple peripheral devices or devices with higher power requirements, the use of the 10-meter hub segment as the final stage is recommended.

Operation, efficiency & service life

The cable operates in the temperature range of 0 to 50 degrees Celsius and stores safely between minus 20 and 60 degrees. The robust connectors with nickel coating and gold-plated contacts withstand frequent plugging and unplugging. The semi-transparent PVC material is low toxicity and environmentally friendly. Lindy guarantees the product for two years.

Conclusion

The Lindy USB 3.0 Active Extension Pro 20m bridges the gap between spatial distance and data performance. It is ideal for all scenarios in which USB 3.0 devices must be operated at a large distance from the host – without compromise on speed or reliability. The modular design enables flexible system expansions up to 40 meters.
