DELOCK actieve optische USB Type-C kabel 10 Gbit/s, haakse stekker naar stekker, 7,5 m

DELOCK active optical USB Type-C cable 10 Gbps, angled plug to plug, 7.5 m is a long-reach USB Type-C cable designed for maintaining high-speed data connections over extended distances. The cable combines optical transmission with USB-C connectors to carry data at up to 10 Gbps while reducing signal loss and electromagnetic interference common in long copper runs. Both ends feature angled Type-C plugs to help with space-constrained installations and cable routing behind devices.

Advantages

The active optical design enables reliable 10 Gbps data transfer across 7.5 meters without the signal degradation typical of passive copper cables. Angled Type-C plugs reduce strain on device ports and simplify routing in tight spaces. The cable is lightweight and flexible compared with equivalent-length copper alternatives, and its optical core provides immunity to electromagnetic interference, improving connection stability in electrically noisy environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops to docking stations or hubs where distance prevents direct connection
• Linking external storage devices, RAID enclosures or high-speed drives to hosts over longer runs
• Extending connections for peripherals such as monitors with USB-C input, audio interfaces, or USB-C network adapters
• Temporary or permanent installations in offices, meeting rooms, or production environments that require neat cable routing

Key specifications

• Connector type: USB Type-C to USB Type-C, angled plugs
• Data transfer rate: up to 10 Gbps
• Transmission medium: active optical cable (AOC)
• Cable length: 7.5 metres
• Compatibility: supports USB-C enabled hosts and devices that operate at supported USB data rates

How to use

Plug each USB Type-C angled connector into the corresponding USB-C ports on host and device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and oriented to match the angled ends for secure seating. No external power supply or drivers are typically required for data transfer; however, device USB-C power delivery or alternate mode capabilities depend on the connected hardware. Verify that both connected devices support the desired USB data mode and negotiate speeds accordingly.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tight bends or kinks near the connectors and maintain a bend radius appropriate for optical cables. Use the angled plugs to reduce mechanical strain on device ports and route the cable away from sources of extreme heat or sharp objects. Confirm device compatibility for power delivery and alternate modes (for example, video over USB-C) before relying on the cable for those functions.
