Review on πŸ”Œ 50ft USB 2.0 High Speed Active Extension/Repeater Cable by Your Cable Store by Brent Porter

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not for HD Webcams - Cables and Connections

This cable works well for low bandwidth devices such as a mouse, keyboard, flash memory, etc. However, if you need to stream HD content and really need 480 Mbps, that's not for you. I'm using a Logitech HD PRO Webcam C920 1080P webcam cable and the video stream often freezes or cuts out. Although the cable didn't work as advertised, I'm not sending it back because it would be too difficult to get it out of my wall. In addition, the repeater is not located in the middle of the cable, as in the figure, but in the housing of the socket. This is probably why the signal gets too weak and is lost when returning from the computer to the camera, eventually resulting in a loss of communication with the device.

Pros
  • USB 2.0 compatible, 50ft length
Cons
