AXAGON ADR-205

An active 5-metre USB 2.0 extension cable, the AXAGON ADR-205. The USB repeater cable amplifies the USB signal, allowing you to connect a USB device much further away than the usual 5 metres possible with passive cables. You can also connect several repeater cables in a series. A major advantage of the ADR-205 extension is its integrated connector for auxiliary power. In most cases, power from the USB bus is sufficient, but for devices with higher power consumption over longer distances, USB power may be inadequate. Auxiliary mains power can solve this problem. The exceptionally compact body of the AXAGON repeater allows for seamless use in electrical trunking or cable management systems. The use of a high-quality shielded cable guarantees high-speed communication and minimal unwanted interference.
