This cable is built for that situation, giving engineers a 20 m run without relying on a chain of short cables and repeaters between the two endpoints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe optical data path is the important part of the design. High-speed USB traffic travels over fiber, while the copper pair is reserved for bus power. That keeps data and power handling separated inside the cable while still allowing a compatible peripheral to receive power from the host side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe connector layout is also straightforward for installation work. USB-A goes to the host and Micro-USB Type-B goes to the device, so the cable can be dropped into a fixed AV, control, or production setup without adding another adapter at either end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eSystem Characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSB 3.0 support\u003c\/strong\u003e provides compatibility with the listed high-speed interface\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSB 3.1 Gen 1 support\u003c\/strong\u003e provides up to 5 Gb\/s data throughput\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSB 3.2 Gen 1 support\u003c\/strong\u003e is listed for the same 5 Gb\/s interface class\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptical data path\u003c\/strong\u003e carries high-speed USB traffic over fiber\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCopper power conductors\u003c\/strong\u003e provide bus power delivery to the connected device\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-in over-current protection\u003c\/strong\u003e protects the power-delivery path\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSB-A male connector\u003c\/strong\u003e is used on the host side\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicro-USB Type-B male connector\u003c\/strong\u003e is used on the device side\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAll-metal connector housing\u003c\/strong\u003e provides the listed connector enclosure design\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 m (65.6 ft)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhat's In The Box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1 x Optical Cables by Corning USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A to Micro-USB Type-B Optical Cable (65.6')\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eTrusted Seller\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoremicro\u003c\/strong\u003e supplies professional AV, broadcast, conferencing, collaboration, camera, and production equipment for installed and portable workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Corning","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47487304728738,"sku":"COR-AOC-ABS2JME020M20","price":299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/0860\/0738\/files\/CorningCOR-AOC-ABS2JME020M20.jpg?v=1787889373","url":"https:\/\/www.coremicro.com\/products\/corning-20-meter-usb-3-a-to-ub-optical-cable","provider":"COREMICRO.COM","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
