Active Optical Cable Connects Servers, Hard Drives and Other USB-C Components

This USB 3.2 Gen 2 fiber optic cable (M/M) securely connects the USB-C port on your desktop, laptop or

notebook computer to a USB-C device, such as a server, external hard drive or surveillance camera,

located up to 20 meters (66 feet) away. This data-only cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 data transfer rates

up to 10 Gbps. Note: This USB-C cable is not backward compatible with USB 3.2 Gen 1, 2.0 or 1.1

devices.

Advanced Fiber Cable Is Easier to Install than Copper

Because the fiber cable is slimmer and more flexible than standard copper USB cables, the U420F-20MD3

is easier to install around corners and in hard-to-reach spaces behind equipment. It draws power from

the connected device, so no external power supply is needed to transmit the USB signal across the longer

distances unique to fiber optic cabling.

CMP Jacket Designed for In-Wall Installations

The plenum-rated jacket has low smoke and flame characteristics, making it suitable for premise

applications in ceilings, walls and ducts.

20 m Cable Lets You Design an Application to Your Custom Specifications

This long cable allows you greater flexibility in placing your USB components. For instance, your camera

or hard drive may be located in a different room away from your office or in a central location where others

have access to it. The plug-and-play U420F-20M-D3 supports all major operating systems, including

Windows, macOS and Linux. Note: This data-only cable provides up to 1A of power to the connected

device. If your device requires more than 1A of power, an external power supply will be required for the

connected USB device.
