ACT USB-C 3.2 Gen2 Active Optical Cable 7.5m USB 3.2 Gen 2 10 Gbit/s

The ACT USB-C 3.2 Gen2 Active Optical Cable 7.5m combines fiber and copper to connect USB-C devices over long distances with no loss of data, video or power. The 7.5 m cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 with up to 10 Gbit/s, Display Alternate Mode up to 4K @ 60Hz and Power Delivery up to 60W. Kevlar-protected fiber and low RFI/EMI make the cable suitable for environments with sensitive equipment. The cable has USB-C connectors on both ends and is backwards compatible with earlier USB standards.

Advantages

The active optical design enables reliable transmission over 7.5 meters without degradation of data, video or power. Support for USB 3.2 Gen 2 provides up to 10 Gbit/s throughput, while Display Alternate Mode allows 4K @ 60Hz video. Kevlar reinforcement increases durability and the fiber/copper construction results in low electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference. The cable supports 60W Power Delivery and is compatible with USB 3.1/3.0/2.0/1.1 devices.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Connecting laptops or docking stations to external displays in meeting rooms
• Classroom AV setups with long cable runs
• Medical or laboratory equipment requiring low EMI/RFI connections
• Workstations where a single cable must carry data, video and power

How to use

Connect one USB-C connector to the host device (laptop, docking station or source) and the other USB-C connector to the target device (monitor, hub or peripheral). Ensure both devices support the required USB and video modes: for 10 Gbit/s transfer use USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, and for video output ensure the source supports Display Alternate Mode. The cable carries power up to 60W when both connected devices negotiate Power Delivery.

Recommendations

Use the cable in straight runs without tight bending; avoid sharp kinks and excessive pulling. For medical or sensitive environments, verify device compatibility and grounding; store the cable protected from heavy mechanical stress to maintain optical integrity.
