Why can USB 3 cables only stretch to 3m when Ethernet cables can be 100m? 974 viewsJanuary 1, 2024 Question100.55K February 1, 2023 0 Comments USB 3.0/3.1/3.2 Gen 1 aka the kind that can do 5 gbps can only use cables up to 3m in length. Meanwhile Ethernet uses a similar twisted pair copper cable, but can do 10 gbps over 100m. What gives, why is USB so limited in terms of cable length?
