20m USB3.0 AOC Extension Cable

AOC (Active Optical Cable) is the latest in cabling technology. AOC removes the copper conductors and replaces them with fibre optic cores and a small transmitter and receiver in the connectors. Copper cores still remain to carry power along the cable. Why Use AOC? The use of fibre optic cores allows the cable to be thinner and lighter. The barriers of cable length is no longer a problem. By using fibre optic cores EMC interference from power cables and lighting is no longer an issue. The cables also produce much less noise themselves and there is no signal loss over long distances No extenders boosters or runs of CAT5e needed. These simply connect to your host and device like a standard USB extension cable Our AOC comes in frustration free packaging.
