Vivolink PROUSB3AAF20 USB cable USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.1 Gen 1) 20 m USB A Black

The Vivolink PROUSB3AAF20 is a 20 m USB 3.2 Gen 1 (USB 3.0) cable with USB A connectors on both ends, designed for long-distance data transmission. It supports data rates up to 5 Gbit/s, is compatible with USB 2.0 devices, and features gold-plated contacts for improved conductivity. The cable is black and intended for professional and installation use where extended USB connections are required.

Advantages

The cable uses high-performance optical fiber construction suitable for extended runs while maintaining USB 3.0 speeds up to 5 Gbit/s. Gold-plated contacts improve signal transfer and corrosion resistance. Full backward compatibility with USB 2.0 devices ensures interoperability with older peripherals. The 20 m length enables connections between distant devices without intermediate hubs.

How to use

Connect one end of the Vivolink PROUSB3AAF20 to the host device (computer or hub) and the other end to the peripheral with USB A ports. Ensure connectors are fully inserted. For best results, perform an initial connection test to confirm the peripheral and host recognise each other at the required USB speed. If the device falls back to USB 2.0, check device compatibility and try different USB ports or shorter cables if available.

Recommendations

USB 3.0 remains an open standard and some USB products on the market may not accept fiber-based extensions. To ensure full functionality with USB 3.0 speeds over this cable, perform a connection test before final installation.
