Cable repetidor activo USB 2.0 ROLINE 12.04.1085 12 m

The ROLINE USB 2.0 Active Repeater Cable 12.04.1085 is an active extension cable that increases the distance between a USB 2.0 4‑Port Hub with Repeater and a computer by 12 meters while preserving signal integrity. Compliant with USB 2.0 and 1.1 specifications, the repeater cable maintains electrical and timing characteristics required for reliable data transmission and supports typical USB peripherals such as printers, cameras and other devices that use a Type A connection.

Advantages

This active repeater cable ensures signal quality over long distances and complies fully with the USB 2.0 / 1.1 standard. It supports bus power from the host USB port, requires no additional drivers thanks to plug & play operation, and uses standard USB Type A male and female connectors for easy connection. The white cable and compact repeater housing provide a discreet appearance in most setups.
