Product Description
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.

Is this product rated for any in-wall or in-ceiling use? The description mentions that it is ideal for connecting to a wallplate. If used in this scenario, is there a limitation on the length of the patch cable that can be used for connecting to hardware on the other side of the wallplate? For instance, would I be able to use this 12m cable, connect to a wallplate, and then connect a 5m USB cable to the wallplate?
Asked by: Andy
The USB Active Cable is not rated for in-wall use. If used in combination with the USB wall plate, you can add a 5 meter USB cable.
