Brand: Cables To Go
Located in: Cables
This 12m cable actively buffers the incoming and outgoing signals to ensure compliance with the USB 2.0 specification for electrical and timing minimums. Designed for use with most USB 2.0 or 1.1 devices like some interactive whiteboards, hard drives and printers. Both low and high speed USB devices will function equally well with this extension cable. The active chip is built into the middle of the cable so you can add a 5 meter USB cable when the active cable is used in combination with a USB wall plate. Connector 1: USB Type A Male Connector 2: USB Type B Male

I used this product in my home and business to extend my webcams from my PC. I connected 2 together inbetween cam and my PC with no visual loss of quality. Worked perfect even after the cam manufacturer told me it couldn't be done.

Comments about Cables To Go 12m USB A/B Active Cable (Center Booster Format):

I am using this to run a Logitech c910 HS Web Cam. I needed a longer cable to mount this above the projection screen and still hide the wires in the attic/wall. It has no issues with the camera, I can still broadcast in 720p and record in 1080p over 12 meters of USB. I'm just curious now what is different about this technology.

Comments about Cables To Go 12m USB A/B Active Cable (Center Booster Format):

This is a great alternative to a series of hubs and shorter cables. We use it to put a web cam a long way from the computer. I might need another one because we need to get further away still, but daisy chaining these is supposed to work, so it is about as low-maintenance as I could hope for.
