Its black jacket offers a neutral appearance suitable for visible cable runs in workstations or entertainment setups. The cable’s connectors are shaped for standard Type-A ports, ensuring broad compatibility with desktop PCs, laptops and USB hubs.

Suitable for

• Extending connection for wired keyboards and mice
• Positioning external hard drives or SSD enclosures at a distance
• Placing webcams or headsets away from the host device

How to use

Connect the Type-A male end of the VivoLink extension cable to an available USB Type-A port on the host computer or hub, then plug the USB device into the female Type-A connector at the other end. For best results, use the cable with devices that conform to USB 3.0 specifications; the extension will also function with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices at their native speeds. Avoid sharp bends and excessive tension along the cable to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For consistent SuperSpeed performance, connect directly to a USB 3.0 port on the host and avoid chaining multiple passive extensions. When powering high-current devices such as some external drives, verify that the host port supplies sufficient current or use a powered USB hub to ensure stable operation.
