With the ever-increasing need to transmit high-bandwidth resolutions over long distances comes the need for completely new cable solutions. Fiber optic USB A cable is a perfect solution when data signals need to go far. Active optical cables do not require an external power source to convert and transmit electrical signals as optical signals and offer many advantages over conventional copper connections. They are much lighter and more flexible than copper for high bandwidth applications, have a longer transmission distance and no sensitivity to electromagnetic interference (EMI). The fiber cable has the same standard USB A connectors and this means that you can connect it as a regular USB A cable to your PC or other devices. To meet certain specifications, the cable is a hybrid of OM3 Multimode 4 leader fiber and 7 wire copper cable.
