Newnex Active High Flex USB-A to USB-C Screw Locking Cable | ULHLU11AC12 Series
Active high-flex USB-A to USB-C screw-locking cable with embedded repeater. 5Gbps up to 8m, rated 6M flex cycles, 5V/1.5A.
The Newnex ULHLU11AC12 series is an active high-flex USB-A to USB-C cable with dual screw locking and an embedded FireNEX™-uLINK active repeater. It’s made for motion systems that need longer USB reach than passive high-flex cables can reliably deliver, without turning into a troubleshooting hobby.
This series supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) performance while extending cable lengths to 5m and 8m, using an integrated active repeater to maintain signal integrity. It keeps the industrial basics: shielding, a durable TPE jacket, rugged overmolds, and a flex-life target of 6,000,000 continuous bending cycles.
Performance changes by length (important)
Both variants are 5Gbps, but travel distance differs with cable length:
| Part Number | Cable Length | Max Travel Distance (at min bend radius) | Max Data Rate | Max Power |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ULHLU11AC12-5M | 5m (16.4 ft) | 4.7m | 5Gbps | 5V / 1.5A |
| ULHLU11AC12-8M | 8m (26.2 ft) | 2.8m | 5Gbps | 5V / 1.5A |
What this means:
- Choose 5m if your motion system needs longer travel distance.
- Choose 8m when you need maximum reach, but accept shorter travel in moving setups.
Key advantages
Active Repeater Extends Reach
Embedded FireNEX-uLINK active repeater helps maintain stable 5Gbps performance at 5m and 8m.
Secure USB-C in Motion
Dual screw locking reduces disconnects in vibration-heavy and moving equipment environments.
Motion-Aware Variant Choice
Both are 5Gbps, but travel distance differs: 4.7m (5m cable) vs 2.8m (8m cable).
Built for Continuous Flexing
Designed for high flex life with a 6 million cycle continuous bending target.
Rugged Industrial Construction
Shielding, durable TPE jacket, and rugged overmolds support harsh install conditions.
