UGREEN US122 Active USB 2.0 A-B Printer Cable 15m Black

The UGREEN US122 Active USB 2.0 A-B Printer Cable 15m Black is a specialized extension solution engineered to connect your computer to a printer, scanner, or other USB Type-B peripherals over long distances. Measuring 15 meters in length, this cable addresses the common challenge of signal degradation and data loss typically experienced with standard passive USB cables beyond their standard limits. Equipped with a built-in signal booster chip, it actively regenerates the USB signal to maintain stable and high-speed communication between connected devices. The robust construction in a sleek black finish ensures seamless integration into office or home environments while delivering reliable daily performance.

Advantages

The primary benefit of the UGREEN US122 active USB 2.0 A-B printer cable is its ability to span a 15-meter distance without compromising data integrity or transmission speed. The integrated active chipset compensates for signal attenuation, allowing users to place peripheral equipment in convenient locations away from the host computer. It supports reliable plug-and-play operation without requiring external power adapters in most standard setups, drawing necessary power directly from the USB port. The durable outer jacket and quality internal shielding protect against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, ensuring clean and uninterrupted data transfer.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers or laptops to printers situated in large offices or separate rooms
• Linking USB Type-B scanners to a workstation over extended distances
• Connecting specialized industrial or office peripherals requiring a stable 15-meter USB connection

When it may not be suitable

This product may not be suitable for applications requiring USB 3.0 or higher data transfer speeds, as it operates strictly at USB 2.0 standards. It is also not designed to be daisy-chained with additional passive extension cables, which could disrupt the active signal amplification and lead to connection instability.

Key specifications

• Cable type: Active USB 2.0 A-B printer cable
• Length: 15 meters
• Color: Black
• Connectors: USB Type-A male to USB Type-B male
• Signal amplification: Built-in active booster chip

How to use

To use the UGREEN US122 active USB 2.0 A-B printer cable, connect the USB Type-A end directly to an available USB port on your computer. Connect the USB Type-B end to the corresponding port on your printer, scanner, or other compatible peripheral device. Ensure that you plug the cable directly into the computer rather than through an unpowered USB hub to guarantee sufficient power delivery for the built-in signal amplifier. Once connected, your operating system should automatically recognize the peripheral device, allowing you to install any necessary drivers and begin normal operation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your peripheral device utilizes a standard USB Type-B connection port
• Check that your computer has an available USB port capable of providing stable power for the active repeater
• Confirm that a 15-meter cable length matches your spatial setup requirements
• Ensure that your hardware requirements do not exceed USB 2.0 transfer speeds

Usage recommendations: Position the cable safely along walls or floors to avoid accidental tripping hazards or physical strain on the connectors. Avoid sharp bends or heavy objects resting on the cable to maintain the integrity of the internal wiring and signal booster.
