Lindy Electronics has launched a new range of USB-C Gen 2 cables engineered to transmit video, audio, and data over extended lengths. USB active cables allow users to extend the connection distance between two USB devices. These cables feature integrated active electronics to boost the signal for high-speed data transfer.

The Lindy USB 3.2 Gen 2 Active Cable uses built-in active electronics to extend the cable length of a USB device by an additional 3m whilst continuing to support fast and efficient data transfer rates of up to 10Gbps as well as Displayport 1.4 Alternate Mode. It combines data, video and USB Power Delivery into one cable which makes it a great solution for use in modern meeting rooms and classrooms when connecting LFDs and touch panels.
