Faracent AJANA-198 USB-C Extension Cable 2-Pack, 3.3 ft, 4K@60Hz

Some setups need extra reach between a USB-C device and its accessory, others need a cable that can handle charging and data connections. The Faracent AJANA-198 adds 3.3 feet of extension and comes as a two-pack. Its male-to-female USB-C connection helps place compatible devices and peripherals where they’re easier to reach.

Highlights

Use the cable to extend a USB-C connection for charging, data transfer, or syncing. The two-cable pack is useful when you want to extend more than one connection or keep a spare for another setup. A braided nylon exterior gives the cable a flexible cord construction, while its black finish suits a range of desk, travel, and home arrangements.

The product listing identifies support for 4K video at 60Hz. For a USB-C-to-HDMI connection, the manufacturer recommends keeping the combined length of this extension and the HDMI cable within 10 feet for best video and charging performance, signal attenuation can affect video stability. The cable can also be used with USB, SD, and TF card hubs, provided the connected devices and hub use a compatible USB-C connection.

Best use cases

This extension can add reach when a USB-C port is awkwardly positioned, such as when charging a phone from a nearby adapter or connecting a tablet or laptop to a USB-C peripheral. Its 3.3-foot length can make it easier to place a connected device within reach on a desk, or to use a device while it remains connected to a charger. The two-pack also suits setups with more than one USB-C connection to extend.

The listed compatible devices include USB-C phones, tablets, laptops, Nintendo Switch, and MagSafe wireless chargers. Compatibility depends on the connection type: this cable is not compatible with Thunderbolt 3 docks or hubs, including Dell TB15 and TB16 docks. It also does not work with GoPro cameras, Apple’s USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter, or Oculus Quest Link. Buyers often appreciate the cable’s added reach and versatility, while feedback on connectivity and durability is mixed, matching the connection to a supported USB-C device helps set up the cable for its intended use.

Tips for day-to-day use

Connect the male end to the USB-C port and the female end to the compatible USB-C cable or peripheral you want to extend. For everyday charging or data connections, this keeps the original device port accessible while moving the connection point farther away. If you’re using a video connection, account for the combined cable length and keep it within the manufacturer’s recommended 10 feet for best performance. Check that a dock or accessory uses a supported USB-C connection rather than Thunderbolt 3 before connecting.

Is it worth it?

For a setup that needs more room between a USB-C device and its cable or accessory, the AJANA-198 offers a straightforward solution: two 3.3-foot extensions for charging, syncing, data connections, and compatible video use. Choose it when added reach is the priority and your devices connect through supported USB-C ports. The two-pack makes it practical to extend separate connections at home, at a desk, or while traveling.
