High-speed in-wall fiber cable connects a USB-C device to the USB-A port on your computer up to 30 meters away. This USB fiber optic cable (M/M) securely connects the USB-A port on your desktop, laptop or notebook computer to a USB-C device, such as servers, external hard drives and surveillance cameras, located up to 30 meters away. This data-only cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps. Because the fiber cable is slimmer and more flexible than standard copper USB cables, the U428F-30M-D3 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. The plenum-rated jacket has low smoke and flame characteristics, making it suitable for premise applications in ceilings, walls and ducts. 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 U428F-30M-D3 supports all major operating systems, including Windows, macOS and Linux.
