Extron USBA Pro P/35 (part number 26-728-35) — a 35 ft (10.6 m) plenum-rated USB-A male to female active extension for SuperSpeed USB signals and peripheral power.

At thirty-five feet the question is no longer whether a passive cable will work but which extension method to use. This one keeps the answer simple: fibre carries the 5 Gbps lanes, copper carries USB 2.0 and the 5 V rail, and the conversion circuitry lives inside the moulded connectors rather than in a box on a shelf. The host end is a USB-A plug and the far end a USB-A socket, so any standard peripheral cable can plug straight in. The jacket is NEC CMP rated for plenum spaces.

Key Capabilities

• USB 3.2 Gen1 SuperSpeed at 5 Gbps, with USB 2.0 and 1.1 compatibility.
• Supplies 5 V and up to 900 mA (4.5 W) to the connected peripheral.
• Plenum, NEC CMP rated jacket for routing through open air spaces.
• Powered by the host computer; the cable itself draws 2.25 W.
• Pigtail included for an external supply when a peripheral needs more current.
• Blue LED on the female connector indicates host power is present.
• 0.24 in (6 mm) diameter with a 0.79 in (20 mm) bend radius.

Where It Is Used

Lecture halls and large meeting rooms with ceiling cameras, courtrooms and council chambers, retail and museum interactive displays, laboratory instrument benches, and any room where the USB peripheral is fixed to a wall or ceiling well away from the host.
