## Long description

MicroConnect USBAB5B-ACTIVE is a 5 m active USB 2.0 cable with a USB Type A plug and a USB Type B plug designed for connecting printers, scanners, external drives and other peripherals. The cable supports data transfer rates up to 480 Mbps and has gold-plated contacts to improve contact reliability. Its active design includes an integrated signal booster to compensate for transmission loss over the 5 m length, ensuring stable communication between host and device. The cable is finished in black and is suitable for equipment with standard USB 2.0 Type B sockets.
Advantages
The integrated booster preserves signal integrity across the full 5 m length, reducing errors and preventing connection drops that can occur with passive cables. Gold-plated contacts provide improved corrosion resistance and reliable electrical contact. Universal USB 2.0 compatibility ensures straightforward plug-and-play operation with a wide range of peripherals, while the Type A to Type B configuration matches standard host-to-device connections.
Suitable for
 Connecting printers and multifunction devices to desktop or laptop hosts
 Linking scanners and imaging devices to computers
 Attaching external USB 2.0 hard drives or optical drives to a host
 Connecting USB hubs or wall-charger USB ports to type B peripheral devices

How to use
Connect the USB Type A plug to the host device such as a computer, USB hub or USB wall charger, and insert the USB Type B plug into the peripheral device (printer, scanner or external drive). After connecting both ends, the host operating system should detect the peripheral automatically and install any required drivers. Avoid excessive bending near the connectors and ensure both ends are fully inserted to maintain a stable connection.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, route the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources and avoid tight coils. If device detection or data transfer issues occur, check connector seating and try a different USB port on the host. Use this cable specifically with devices that support USB 2.0 Type B connections; for USB 3.x devices with different connector types, select an appropriate cable.
