The extends USB 2.0 signals via a plenum rated, Active Optical hybrid cable assembly. Utilizing active circuitry in the permanent USB connectors, USB signals can be transmitted on fixed length cables ranging from 8 up to 40 m. The cables can deliver USB 2.0 power up to 0.5W to 25m. The cable is a USB 2.0 cable for data transfer up to 480Mbps. As a hybrid fiber optic cable, the COME-TUPAA is immune to electromagnetic (EM) and radio frequency (RF) interference, which could degrade signal performance, the signals on the cable will not interfere with other sensitive electronic equipment. The USB A male to A male format is not a standard USB approved format. A to A male is often used to extend from Host to a coupler and then a USB A-B or A-C cable is used on the coupler Client side to associate the correct connector. This is a directional cable and the heads are marked with “Host” and “Device”. It will function in the normal USB Host to Client Mode. For best practices the connecting cable used on the Client side should be 1 meter or less in length. Any configuration should be bench tested prior to installation.
