ATEN 20 M USB 3.2 Gen1 Extender Cable USB A to USB C 5 Gbit/s

The ATEN UE332C is a 20 m USB 3.2 Gen 1 (USB 3.1 Gen 1) extender cable that connects a USB Type-A host (PC or laptop) to a USB-C device while supporting up to 5 Gbps SuperSpeed data transfer. The cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 standards and is designed to maintain reliable data communication over extended distance. Its compact, lightweight construction and plug-and-play operation allow easy deployment across multiple platforms, including Windows and macOS. The USB-C female connector includes two screw holes to enable a more secure, fixed connection for industrial or demanding environments.

Advantages

The UE332C provides high-speed data transfer up to 5 Gbps across a 20 m span, enabling fast syncing without frequent signal loss. Backward compatibility with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ensures broad device support. The cable’s small form factor and plug-and-play design simplify installation, while the screw-mountable USB-C female connector offers improved mechanical stability in industrial or permanently installed setups.
