Progressive Robot 30m USB3.0 AOC Type A Extension Cable

30m USB3.0 AOC Extension Cable

AOC is short for Active Optical Cable which is the latest in cabling technology. AOC removes the copper conductors and replaces them with fibre optical cores and a small transmitter and receiver in the connectors. Copper cores still remain to carry power along the cable. 

- The use of fibre optical cores allows the cable to be thinner and lighter.
- The barriers of cable length is no longer a problem.
- By using fibre optical cores, EMC interference from power cables and lighting is no longer an issue. The cables also produce much less EMC themselves.
- No extenders, boosters or runs of CAT5e needed. These simply connect to your host and device like a standard cable.
- No signal loss over long distances.

Please Note : Not backwards compatible with USB2.0
