Microconnect MC-USB3.0AB15OP USB-kabel USB 3.2 Gen 2 (3.1 Gen 2) 15 m USB A USB B zwart

The Microconnect MC-USB3.0AB15OP is a 15 m active optical USB cable with USB A to USB B connectors that supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 speeds up to 10 Gbit/s. The cable is intended for extending USB connections over longer distances while maintaining high data throughput and reliable signal integrity. Gold-plated contacts improve conductivity and reduce corrosion, and the black jacket offers standard cable protection for office and professional environments.

Advantages

This USB A to B active optical cable provides a stable high-speed connection across a 15 m span without the signal degradation typical of passive copper cables. With USB 3.2 Gen 2 support and gold-plated connectors, it enables data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s and reliable physical contact. The optical construction reduces electromagnetic interference and is suitable for environments where longer cable runs are required.

Suitable for

• Connecting printers and multifunction devices over long distances
• Linking scanners to a computer across extended cable runs
• Connecting meeting/UC cameras and other USB B devices in conference rooms
• Workstations and professional setups requiring a 15 m USB A–B connection

How to use

Connect the USB A plug to the host computer or USB hub and the USB B plug to the peripheral device such as a printer, scanner, or meeting camera. Ensure both devices support USB 3.2 Gen 2 to achieve maximum data rates; the cable is backwards compatible with lower USB versions but will operate at the lower supported speed. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and heavy compression; secure connectors firmly but do not force them into ports.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use genuine USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports on both ends and avoid routing the cable alongside strong sources of electromagnetic noise. Inspect connectors for debris before use and avoid extreme bending or crushing of the cable to preserve signal integrity.
