FAQs
What is the maximum data transfer rate of this cable?
This cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 2, offering data transfer rates of up to 10Gbps. It is also backward compatible with USB 3.0/3.1 Gen 1 (5Gbps) and USB 2.0 (480Mbps) devices.
Do I need to install any drivers for this cable?
No, this is a plug-and-play device. No additional drivers or software are required for installation. Your operating system will recognize the connected USB device.
Can I use this cable with USB 2.0 devices?
Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible and can be used with USB 2.0 devices, though the transfer speeds will be limited to USB 2.0 speeds (up to 480Mbps).
Is the external power supply included with the cable?
No, the external USB power supply is not included. The cable features a USB Type-A power input cable that can be connected to an external power supply if the connected device requires more power than the USB bus can provide.
What type of environments is this cable suitable for?
The cable is suitable for a wide range of environments, including those sensitive to RFI/EMI, due to its low interference design. Its construction also makes it durable for installation in cable trays and conduits.
How do I ensure a secure connection?
The USB Type-A socket on the device end of the cable features a screw-locking design. You can tighten this screw to firmly secure the cable to the USB port of your peripheral, preventing accidental disconnections.
What is the warranty period for this product?
The Lindy Hybrid USB 3.2 Cable comes with a 2-year warranty.
Troubleshooting
Device not recognized or intermittent connection
Ensure both ends of the cable are firmly connected. If using an external power supply, verify it is providing sufficient power (5V, at least 2A recommended for power-hungry devices) and is properly connected. Try connecting the device directly to the computer using a shorter cable to rule out device or computer port issues. Check for any physical damage to the cable or connectors.
Slow data transfer speeds
Verify that the host computer's USB port and the connected device both support USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps). Ensure the connected device is not a USB 2.0 device, as it will default to slower speeds. If using an optional external power supply, ensure it is connected and providing adequate power. Close unnecessary applications running in the background on the computer that might be consuming resources.
Cable is stiff or difficult to route
While designed to be lighter and more flexible than traditional copper cables, 35 meters of any cable requires careful handling. Gently uncoil the cable and plan your routing path to avoid sharp bends or kinks. Allow the cable to warm up to room temperature if stored in a cold environment, which may improve flexibility.
No power to the connected device
Confirm that the USB Type-A power cable is connected to an external USB power supply (not included) and that the power supply is functioning correctly and plugged into a live outlet. Check if the connected device is drawing excessive power, potentially requiring a higher-rated power adapter.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Enables very long USB connections up to 35 meters.
- Maintains high 10Gbps SuperSpeed data transfer rates.
- Hybrid construction offers flexibility and durability.
- Low EMI/RFI emissions are ideal for sensitive installations.
- Secure screw-locking connector prevents disconnection.
- Backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices.
Cons
- Requires an external power supply for power-intensive devices (not included).
- The cable's weight (1.35 kg) might be a factor in delicate installations.
- While flexible, its 35m length means careful routing is necessary.
- Data transfer rate is listed as 100 Mbit/s in some specifications, which seems to be a misprint and should be 10 Gbps.
- Connector dimensions are relatively large, requiring adequate space.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This is a plug-and-play device. Connect the USB Type-A host connector to your computer's USB 3.2 Gen 2 port. Connect the USB Type-A device connector to your peripheral. For devices requiring additional power, connect the included USB Type-A power cable to an external USB power adapter (not included) and plug it into a power outlet. The screw-locking mechanism on the device end can be tightened to secure the connection.
Compatibility: Fully compatible with USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps), USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10Gbps), USB 3.0/3.1 Gen 1 (5Gbps), and USB 2.0 (480Mbps) ports and devices. It is ideal for extending signals from 4K USB 3.2/3.1 webcams and video conferencing systems. Ensure your host computer's USB port supports the desired transfer speed (e.g., USB 3.2 Gen 2 for 10Gbps).
Care: To maintain optimal performance and longevity, keep the cable clean and free from dust, especially the connectors. Use a dry or slightly damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid exposing the cable to extreme temperatures outside its operating range (-20°C to 70°C) or excessive moisture. Store the cable at temperatures between -40°C and 85°C when not in use. Ensure the cable is routed carefully to avoid kinks or sharp bends, particularly given its length.
