Hubbell SFUSBAAB USB A-to-A Keystone Coupler

Overview

The Hubbell SFUSBAAB is a SNAP-FIT keystone coupler designed to bridge two USB Type-A ports, effectively extending USB connectivity within a structured cabling environment. This component is critical for installations where a USB device needs to be located further from its host than a standard cable allows, such as connecting a USB webcam or printer to a PC or NVR in a clean, professional manner. It fits into standard keystone wall plates and patch panels, ensuring a consistent aesthetic and installation method with other network and audio-visual cabling.

Compatibility

This keystone coupler is designed for use with standard USB Type-A connectors on both ends. It is compatible with any system requiring a USB A-to-A connection, including PC peripherals, USB-powered devices, and certain surveillance system components like USB dongles or external storage devices connected to NVRs. It integrates seamlessly into standard keystone patch panels and wall plates, supporting a wide range of commercial and residential AV and data installations.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard keystone-style punch-down tool for terminating the internal connections, though this specific model acts as a direct coupler, meaning no punch-down is required. Simply plug a USB A cable into the front and another into the rear. It snaps into any standard keystone opening, typically found in wall plates, patch panels, or surface-mount boxes. Ensure the connected USB cables are of sufficient quality and length for the desired transmission distance, as USB signal integrity degrades over longer runs.
