The Lindy USB Active Extension Cable Pro is a high performance active cable that allows access to USB 2.0 peripherals over long distances. With support for data transfer speeds of up to 480Mbps this extension cable is perfect for transferring data volumes quickly and reliably.

This 8m extension cable can be used standalone or as part of the Lindy USB 2.0 Active Extension System Pro. This system is a modular solution that can combine multiple USB Active Extension Pro cables and a USB 2.0 Active Extension Pro hub to distribute USB signals to up to 4 devices at up to 60m. 

The 8m and 12m cable, and the 8m and 12m hub feature a single active repeater module to boost the USB signal. The 30m cable uses two repeaters. A fully deployed extension system is limited to a maximum of 60m and 4 repeater modules. Any combination of cables and a single hub can be connected providing the 60m / 4 repeater limit is not exceeded. The extension hub must always be the last segment of the extension system.

This cable features industry-proven active technology and locking connectors to ensure full signal integrity in the most demanding environments.

Better than the competition

I needed to get a better signal for my USB wireless network adapter and bought an extender cable from another supplier so as to position it in the best place. It worked with my desktop PC but not with the laptop for which I needed it. Too much power and signal loss over 8 metres, I guess. So I bought this one, which works perfectly. Well done Lindy!

Three month problem solved in minutes

I wanted to view my monitor upstairs on 47inch tv in lounge, I tried various methods both wired and wireless with no luck then I came across the Lindy web site and read about the "Pro" series of usb extension cables, I took a chance ordered two cables which arrived next day and when fitted had perfect picture with full control of mouse and keyboard. I have since then ordered various items from Lindy and each time the service was excellent thank you Lindy ----Meurig
