Vision TC 5MUSBEXT+ USB cable 5m USB 2.0, white

The Vision TC 5MUSBEXT+ 5m USB 2.0 White is a 5-metre USB extension cable with USB A connectors on both ends. Designed for connecting devices over longer distances, it supports USB 2.0 data transfer rates up to 0.48 Gbit/s and features gold-plated contacts to improve contact reliability and reduce corrosion. The white jacket provides a neutral, unobtrusive look suitable for home or office environments.

Advantages

The cable provides reliable USB 2.0 connectivity over an extended 5 m length without active signal amplification. Gold-plated connector contacts enhance durability and maintain consistent electrical contact. Dual USB A connectors allow straightforward extension of existing USB A-to-A cables or direct connections between compatible host and peripheral devices. The white outer sheath is flexible enough for routing along desks or behind equipment while remaining resistant to everyday wear.

Suitable for

• Extending the reach of USB peripherals such as printers, scanners, external hard drives and webcams
• Connecting devices where the USB port is hard to reach or located at a distance from the workstation
• Temporary setups for presentations, workshops or field work that require additional cable length

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB A to USB A
• USB version: USB 2.0
• Maximum data transfer rate: up to 0.48 Gbit/s
• Cable length: 5 m
• Contact plating: gold-plated connector contacts
• Colour: white

How to use

Plug one USB A connector into the host device or extension point and the other USB A connector into the peripheral or target device. Ensure both ports support USB 2.0 or are backward compatible. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and excessive strain at connector ends. For stable connections, fully insert the connectors until they click or seat firmly in the ports.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, avoid using multiple passive extension segments beyond the recommended cable length for USB 2.0 and keep the cable away from high-interference sources such as large motors or unshielded power cables. If devices require bus power, verify that the connected host can supply sufficient current over a 5 m passive cable; consider a powered USB hub if additional power is needed.
