Epson CEPS-12PUSB Powered USB Cable 12ft
Overview
The Epson CEPS-12PUSB is a 12-foot powered USB cable that combines data and power delivery in a single connection, eliminating the need for separate power adapters on compatible Epson peripherals. Designed for desktop environments where cable routing or power outlet placement would otherwise complicate the installation, this cable carries both host communication and device power over standard USB signaling.
Compatibility
The CEPS-12PUSB uses a 4-pin USB Type A connector (host side) and 4-pin USB Type B connector (device side), supporting Epson printers, scanners, and imaging devices with powered USB input. Verify your specific Epson device model supports powered USB before ordering — not all Epson peripherals accept power via USB. Consult your device manual or contact Epson technical support if you are uncertain whether your model accepts this connector type.
Installation Notes
At 12 feet, this cable length suits typical office and workgroup installations where the host system sits 10–15 feet from the printer or scanner. Avoid running powered USB cables through high-traffic areas or near high-current power lines; cable strain and electromagnetic interference can degrade signal integrity over longer runs. Route the cable away from fluorescent ballasts and heavy machinery if possible. Do not coil or crimp the cable tightly; excessive bending near connectors can damage the internal 4-pin contacts.
