Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the LINDY USB 3.0 Active Extension System Pro. This product has been
designed to provide trouble free, reliable operation. It benefits from both a LINDY 2 year warranty and free

reference.

The LINDY USB 3.0 Active Extension Pro System enables you to extend your USB 3.0 devices by up to

 USB 3.0 Active Extension Pro 10m (Nr. 43157)

 Nrs. 43157, 43158, 43159 include a USB power adapter cable (USB A male to DC 2.5/0.7mm male,

approximately 1.5m) for use with a power supply (not included)

Installation

Please Note: Only the USB 3.0 Active Extension Pro 8m (Nr. 43158) or 15m (Nr. 43229) can be connected

directly to your computer. If you are creating an extension using multiple units from the Extension Pro
System then the first unit must always be the USB 3.0 Active Extension Pro 8m (Nr. 43158) or 15m (Nr.

43229).
Once the first cable has been connected, you can then cascade further cables to achieve a maximum

distance of 40m. The final part of the extension can be any of the three parts of the Extension Pro System.
If you need to extend multiple devices or if you connect a USB device with high power requirement, then
you should use the 10m Hub Pro unit (Nr. 43159) with it’s power supply as the final part of the extension.
