eZon USB 3.x Gen2 Active Optical Cable, 10Gbps

The eZon USB 3.x Gen2 active optical cable is a 10Gbps, plenum-rated USB extension cable available from Procure.ae in the UAE.

This is a USB 3.x Gen2 active optical cable (AOC) that carries USB signal at up to 10Gbps over distances well beyond what a standard copper USB cable can reach. It uses directional USB-A connectors, a blue-shelled connector for the host/computer end and a white-shelled connector for the client/device end, with active optical circuitry built into the connector housings and no external power supply needed. It also carries a plenum rating, giving it a smaller cable diameter suited to routing through air-handling spaces.

It is used to extend high-speed USB 3.x connections, such as cameras, capture devices, storage or AV control interfaces, well beyond the roughly 3-5m practical limit of passive copper USB cables, in control rooms, AV racks, broadcast setups and data centres. It is supplied in 10m and 15m lengths for UAE and GCC AV and IT integration projects that need long-distance USB links without adding a network-based extender.

Questions

Can’t find your answer? Ask on WhatsApp

Does this cable need an external power supply?
No. It is an active optical cable with the active electronics built into the connector housings, so it draws power over the USB connection itself and needs no separate power adapter.
Does it matter which end plugs into the computer?
Yes. The connectors are directional: the blue-shelled connector is the host end that plugs into the computer or controller, and the white-shelled connector is the client end that plugs into the USB device.
Why choose this over a standard copper USB 3.0 cable for a long run?
Passive copper USB cables are only reliable up to a few metres at full USB 3.x speed. This active optical cable is built to carry a full 10Gbps USB 3.x Gen2 signal over 10m or 15m runs, which a copper cable of that length cannot do.
What is the difference between the 10m and 15m versions?
Both use the same USB 3.x Gen2, plenum-rated, active optical construction; they differ only in overall cable length, 10m or 15m, so you can match the length to your run.
