Description
The CLS-AOCU32/AC-35 is an optical hybrid USB cable engineered for high-speed data transfer between a USB 3.2 host and a USB 3.2 device. It connects a USB-A male to a USB-C male connector and delivers SuperSpeed+ performance. This cable is designed specifically for data applications and does not support charging or ALT Mode signaling.
Key features include USB 3.2 Gen 2 throughput up to 10Gbps and a hybrid construction that combines fiber optics and copper conductors. The cable uses a 2-channel OM2 850 nm VCSEL array to maintain signal integrity over longer distances. It supports backward compatibility with earlier USB generations to ensure broad device interoperability.
Performance specifications cover a maximum data rate of 10Gbps and low power consumption at <=0.5W when operating. Mechanical ratings include long- and short-term tensile and crush resistances, plus a 20mm minimum bending radius to preserve fiber performance. The cable jacket is black with a 4.8mm diameter and is CPR Eca rated and LSHF for flammability.
Connectivity is provided by a USB 3.2 Type-A male on one end and a USB 3.2 Type-C male on the other end. The cable pulls power from the USB source device and requests that remote devices be self-powered when necessary. It is compatible with USB cameras, webcams, printers, speakerphones and other data-only USB peripherals.
Typical applications include USB camera links in broadcast and conferencing environments, long-reach PC peripheral connections, and fixed AV installations that require reliable data transmission without power delivery. The optical hybrid design minimizes signal loss over distance and helps maintain stable data links in mixed-media setups. The cable is available in multiple lengths up to 50ft to suit a range of layouts.
Installation is plug-and-play with no drivers required and no external power supply needed in most host-powered scenarios. The cable is designed for professional AV environments with robust mechanical ratings to withstand handling and routing. Built to industry standards, it simplifies integration where a reliable, data-only USB connection is required.
