Review on ๐Ÿ”Œ UGREEN USB Extension Cable 32FT - USB 3.0 Male to Female Active Repeater Cable with Signal Amplifier for Printers, WiFi Antenna, Playstation, HTC Vive, Keyboard, Game Console by Masud Taylor

Windows Mixed Reality Extension

Works seamlessly to get an extra 30ft for my Samsung Odyssey+ VR headset. I've never experienced the deafening noise I've experienced with any other cable I've tried. The only downside I ever encountered was when I tested it without cable power to see if it worked. Also note that I CANNOT connect this directly to a PC headset. It sees the headset is plugged in but asks me to check my cables. As soon as for some reason I plug an active USB 3.0 hub (just a cheap Insignia) between the cable and the headset, everything works without problems. Maybe the repeater bits aren't on the female end to send it another 15 feet and the hub does that? Thankfully, the power connector is on the female side, keeping the hub and powered HDMI repeater connections together. So this works great for WMR, but you'll probably need a powered 3.0 hub between the cable and the headset. The only downside is that due to the repeater blocks in the cable (which make it work), I don't think I'm doing a good job of connecting USB and HDMI cables together, but I prefer the functionality to the form.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • For old
