AirQueue USB 2.0 Extension Cable with MicroU2E to enable USB 2.0 ExpressCards with the MacBook Air. AirQueue USB 2.0 A (Male) to A (Female) Extender Cable 19cm/.62F (CAB-USB2-AFA-0020C). Avoid damage to MacBook Air USB port and allows use of MicroU2E ExpressCard Adapter pictured here with a 3G/4G (EVDO) WWAN Wireless broadband KPC680 ExpressCard card. The AirQueue extension cable can be used with any USB 2.0 device with an upstream (male) USB A connector, not just the MicroU2E. Also prevents MacBook Air port door blocking by large or unusually designed connectors on USB devices.

Specialized Optional 'Y' Extender Cables Now Available for MicroU2E

Synchrotech has released the CAB-USB2-AAFA-0020C USB 2.0 A + A (Power only) to A (Female) 'Y' Extender Cable 19cm/.62F. Highly shielded, the CAB-USB2-AAFA-0020C is a 19cm extender cable (A to A-female) for the MicroU2E USB to ExpressCard Adapter, allowing MicroU2E use a short distance distance from a host's USB port. The 'Y' extender cable eliminates problems with the MicroU2E blocking adjacent USB ports, and provides better wireless device reception through increasing the MicroU2E's distance from a host computer and providing more flexible device placement. The 'Y' extender cable also features a second male A host connector clearly labeled with the international icon for power. This secondary upstream connection allows the MicroU2E to draw supplementary current for powering many 3G/4G wireless mobile broadband ExpressCards. Using both upstream ports not only improves wireless reception for many 3G/4G ExpressCards, but often eliminates many intermittent problems altogether.

Allowing the use of USB 2.0 Mode ExpressCard devices on USB 2.0 ports, the MicroU2E USB 2.0 to USB 2.0 Mode ExpressCard 34 | 54 Host Adapter separates itself from similar products by its diminutive size. Slightly bigger than a book of matches, the adapter accepts USB 2.0 based ExpressCards in both 34 and 54 form factors. Supported USB mode ExpressCards include: Kyocera's KPC680 EV-DO Rev. A ExpressCard, Novatel Wireless Merlin ExpressCards (XU870, EX720, V740), storage media ExpressCards like Datafab's expSSD, simple minded RS-232 host adapters like Synchrotech's EXP34-RS232-01, most ExpressCard to memory card media adapters like Synchrotech's EXP34-ADP-CF2-01, and several others. The device will not work with any ExpressCard using the PCI Express (PCIe) portion of the ExpressCard standard. A cross-platform device, the MicroU2E adapter allows deployment of USB based ExpressCards like the latest generation of 3G wireless devices on slotless Apple MacBooks and PC notebooks.
