Microconnect MC-USB3.2CA10OP USB cable USB 3.2 Gen 2 (3.1 Gen 2) 10 m USB A USB C Black

The Microconnect MC-USB3.2CA10OP is an active optical USB-C to USB-A cable with a 10 m length supporting USB 3.2 Gen 2 data rates up to 10 Gbit/s. It connects devices with USB-C and USB-A ports and is intended for extending USB connections over longer distances while maintaining high-speed transfer performance. The cable features gold-plated contacts and a black outer finish.

Advantages

This active optical cable provides stable high-speed transfers up to 10 Gbit/s (USB 3.2 Gen 2) over a 10 m run, suitable for situations where passive copper cables would lose signal integrity. The USB-C to USB-A configuration ensures compatibility with a wide range of hosts and peripherals. Gold-plated contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance, and the cable’s construction reduces signal attenuation across the longer length.

Suitable for

• Extending connections to printers and scanners
• Connecting meeting room cameras and USB video devices
• Linking external USB 3.0 storage and peripherals at a distance

Ensure both devices support the intended USB functionality and that connections are fully seated. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive kinking of the cable along its 10 m length.

Recommendations

Use this active optical cable when you need reliable 10 Gbit/s transfers over longer distances where passive USB cables are insufficient; keep connectors and ports clean and avoid running the cable near high-interference sources for optimal signal integrity.
